Creatine Monohydrate 101- Marketing Myths Vs Research Science

Supplement Company Marketing MYTH - Creatine Monohydrate has poor stability

According to many supplement companies, creatine monohydrate has poor stability in the stomach and rapidly converts to CREATININE (The break-down waste product of creatine). Their fictitious story goes on to state, that due to this “so called” high creatine to creatinine conversion rate in the stomach, little ever reaches the blood stream and ever get absorbed into your muscles to bring about it strength/muscle building benefits.

Research Science- Even from the very early research dating back to 1992, it has been well known that creatine monohydrate has exceptional stability. Researchers measured its stability and conversion rate to its break-down product creatinine at various pH (acidic) ranges to mimic the low pH (acidity) of our stomach acid. Here’s what they found. Less than 1-2 percent is converted to creatinine, even after four hours of sitting in a low pH solution. Even after sitting in a low pH solution for THREE DAYS, only 4-20% of it converted to creatinine, depending on the pH of the solution it was tested in. The creatine you ingest, is obviously NEVER going to sit in your stomach for three days and even if it did, the SLOW conversion rate still leaves plenty of unconverted creatine to adequately elevate muscle creatine concentrations to bring about performance gains. As you can see this is a fictitious myth based on no real scientific evidence and should be of NO concern to anyone using creatine monohydrate.

Supplement Company Marketing MYTH - Creatine Monohydrate is absorbed poorly into the blood stream

Research Science - University research has repeatedly shown, that 98-99% of the creatine monohydarate you ingest, gets absorbed through the gastro intestinal tract(GI tract) and into the blood stream. END OF DISCUSSION.

THE REAL ABSORPTION ISSUE: Getting the creatine from the BLOOD stream into the MUSCLES, where we need it. Simply put, creatine pours into the blood stream due to its exceptional absorption through the GI tract. Unfortunately it gets bottlenecked when it gets to our muscles, which have a limited capacity to absorb it.

What was the old school solution to this problem?

Ingesting large amounts of fast digesting simple sugars/carbohydrates that would greatly spike the hormone insulin. Insulin by up-regulating the creatine transporter would intern allow more creatine to enter into our muscles at an accelerated rate. This method certainly works and works well.

Unfortunately there are some real limitations and downsides to utilizing this method:

  1. Insulin is a powerful fat storing hormone and constantly spiking it with simple sugars is not exactly what physique athletes or bodybuilders wants when trying to stay lean and ripped.
  2. Many physique athletes do not want the caloric load from ingesting such high amounts of simple sugars and would much rather get their sugar from complex/slow digestion carbohydrate sources.
  3. Some individuals feel BLOATED, NAUSCIOUS and FATIGUED from ingesting all that simple sugar, every time they take their creatine supplement.

Simply put, it is just not optimal or realistic for many active individuals who take their DIETS, PHYSIQUES and HEALTH as serious as their TRAINING.

THE SOLUTION- Creatine RT™ - THE EVOLUTION of Creatine Supplementation

Forget loading up on mounds of sugar to enhance creatine absorption; we bring you the biggest breakthrough in the science of creatine supplementation since creatine itself.

Russian Tarragon Extract – A recent study, showed the EXACT Russian Tarragon Extract used in Creatine RT combined with Creapure® creatine (both used in Creatine RT) could:

  • Increase Creatine Absorption More Than 70 Grams of Sugar!
  • Bring about 20% Greater Muscle Creatine Absorption Than Creatine Alone.
  • NO SUGAR/CARBS NEEDED & NO LOADING PHASE!
  • In simplistic terms, the Russian tarragon extract used in Creatine RT,will make your muscles like creatine sponges!

A Research Supported Combination

Patented Creapure® brand Creatine Monohydrate combined with Taurine

Unlike other creatine formula’s, that use the cheapest creatine monohydrate they can get their hands on, or inferior forms like creatine ethyl ester(CEE) and others. We have licensed the German made Creapure®; the world’s purest creatine monohydrate, with a proven safety profile. Creapure® brand of creatine monohydrate is produced with a unique patented non-carcinogenic process in a FDA registered GMP plant in Germany with no possible risk of cross contamination or high levels of its breakdown byproduct creatinine that can occur with cheaper creatine’s. Creapure® is recognized for consistent and homogenous quality (min 99.9% creatine monohydrate) which increases your value, while keeping it contaminate free. Look for the creapure® logo on the label of Creatine RT™ to ensure you are getting the best creatine in the world. Creapure® is the KING of all creatine's. Creatine RT, also includes the amino-acid TAURINE to assist as a cell volumizer and nutrient transporter.

Flavor: Grape Bubble Gum

Grape bubble gum tastes great, but that is not what is important. I have been taking this creatrine supplement for 2 months now and it is awesome. I do not feel bloated taking it like creatine I have used in the past. I can tell my muscles are harder, nor just gaining size, which is a huge improvement over other other creatines. I believe this should be the only way creatine should be made, with the tarragon extract and not sugars. Great work again AEN, I totally believe in your products.

Excellent product. There's really nothing bad I can say about this. The taste is bang on, the price is reasonable and I have seen consistent gains for over 2 months while using it. AEN makes solid products, I recommend using this with Intabolic and M&S Premium series whey post workout. Good luck!

Usually I'm skeptically about trying designer creatine products, but a buddy recommended this to me and the price was right, so I gave it a try.

The flavor was present, but not overly sweet which is good. I definitely noticed the increased strength that comes with creatine products, however I also noticed that I was leaning out somewhat. This could have been due to minimized water retention. Nonetheless, it was awesome!

Have done two "cycles" of this and definitely like it and have seen results. Nice to not have to crank a bunch of carbs in with my creatine. Only thing that keeps it from 10/10 is the price, relative to mono.

Excellent product! Very nice taste (just a little bit after taste. Can barely notice).
I saw a fast increase in my endurance and strength, and I don't take much stuff: Just this, L-Carnitine and BCAA.

I've been taking this product for approximately 14 days. I have experienced great results from the product. The taste is actually pretty good and it all mixes well with water. The only down side was within 2 hours after taking a serving I was stuck in the bathroom. I experience the same problem with other creatine supplements but they generally seize after a few days of taking the product. Overall, great supplement!

AEN always brings quality products to the table. I have gone through a whole tub of Creatine RT and it's definitely a solid product. I experienced slightly better results in strength compared to Universal creatine mono. The taste is very good, even when mixed with water alone. The only thing which dropped the score a bit was the cost vs servings. 20 servings does not go a long way, so this would add 30$ per month to your supp expense.

Great product. Previously i used Con Cret and did not find it to be effective so i switched to Creatine RT after having a sample at the Vitamin Shoppe here. Taste was great and mixed well. Really fueled my workouts and helped increase my strength. Im looking forward to trying PreSurge in the future.

Creatine RT is a great product that is essential for those looking to add some muscle mass. By the time my tub was finished, my strength had increased, I looked leaner yet went up in overall weight, and my muscles looked much better. It gives them that "pumped" look even when your not working out. They do look full and take shape alot easier. My muscles felt great, not tired or sore. The taste was excellent as well, on par w/ all of AEN's products. This is a product that can take you to the next level.

Flavor: Fruit Punch

I have known Seb since the inception of AEN and have used all of their products and have had good results from every one of them. This stand alone creatine product is no different.
I understand the concept of adding RT to the creatine monohydrate powder as Seb has used it in other product using Monohydrate but seriously thought that this product wasn't going to cut it in the market with all the other cheaper products out there. However i was wrong!

I used it as suggested at 5 days on and 2 days off and used it post-workout as i have a pre-workout and intra product. I also hadn't really been using a stand alone creatine product sine i last used a Kre-Alkalyn product and finished this at the beginning of August, so i had been without one for around a month and started the RT at the beginning of September.

I didn't really see anything from it for around 1-2 weeks but then i could feel a big difference in my muscle fullness, not such a pump but an overall fullness that stayed and developed daily. The shape started to change towards the end of the tub and could see the roundness of the biceps and especially shoulders developing again. My strength went up slightly from starting it and gained a couple of pounds without looking or feeling any bloat. I have purchased another tub and will this time add it into my intrabolic and see what difference it makes to my workouts.

Overall ratings :

Taste - Actually a very nice tasting fruit punch - 4/5

Muscle Fullness and shape - 5/5 as the fullness that was felt was very good and the shape appearing in the shoulders especially.

Results - For speed of results it gets a 5/5 as taking it for 1-2 weeks at 5 days a week so in essence taking it for 7-8 days started to show results.

All in all a very good stand alone Creatine product, backed by a trusted company that delivers high quality ingredients, that maybe some will say a little pricey for a month supply when you can get bulk Creatine for a lot less. But the quality and results are worth the little extra in this industry IMO and you do actually get what you pay for now a days.

Not a big fan of Fruit Punch so i was pleasantly surprised that this tasted good when mixed with 16oz of water. Way better than just a powdered monohydrate, so taste was definitely good for something you just want to sit and drink.

Overall i loved this product and it backs up all the claims made by the company. Gained strength, stayed lean and dry, and felt great. I continue to use this product and believe it is worth the upgrade from just a cheap monohydrate supplement.

I've only gone through one tub of Creatine RT, but the results so far a pretty solid. Strength has been shooting up and size/muscle fullness is definitely increased. I really like the concept and science of russian tarragon. I have nightmares about my first mixture of creatine and 75g of sugar, so anything to reduce sugar intake and increase creatines effects...fine by me.

The flavor is awesome. I really love it and want to drink it more than I should. Almost a fruity cinnamon flavor, but very delicious.

took this post workouts, it was suppose to help with strength and power. my boyfriend and the internet said that creatine usually causes bloating, being a girl i was against that. but he told me i didn't have to worry with Creatine RT from AEN. AEN adds a russian terragon that helps stop bloating. i took this for a whole month and did not once, see any sign of bloating. i did see some gains in strength, and looked like my muscles, small as they are, fuller. would recommend this, very delicious tasting, and mixes perfectly.

This stuff is amazing! First off, you have the best form of creatine...Creapure. Next, you don't have a bunch of sugars to help with the creatine absorption. I found myself to be a non responder to regular creatine mono, but this product fixes that. I have noticed no bloat or anything of that nature either. Great product and should be a serious contender for your daily creatine product!
