Product Details
Micronised creatine monohydrate from Designs for Health
Creatine Monohydrate Powder is pure micronised creatine monohydrate – one of the most researched supplements ever, with more than 680 published studies. 5 g per serving, a naturally tasteless powder that dissolves quickly in liquid.
About creatine
Creatine is one of the most researched ingredients in nutrition and sports science, with more than 680 peer-reviewed articles published in journals such as Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition, Nutrients and Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise. According to EFSA, a daily intake of 3 g of creatine contributes to an increase in physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high-intensity exercise. Designs for Health uses micronised technology that makes the powder finer, dissolves faster in liquid and has been studied for better absorption and stomach tolerance.

Creatine is stored primarily in muscle cells as phosphocreatine and acts as a rapid energy source for short, high-intensity activity. The authorised EFSA claim covers exactly that: creatine increases physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high-intensity exercise, at 3 g a day. Research has since also looked at creatine in relation to cognitive function, though that work is at an earlier stage.
Vegetarians and vegans benefit particularly from creatine supplements, since creatine in the diet comes mainly from meat and fish. Studies have shown that vegetarians often have lower muscle creatine levels and may gain more from supplementation. Designs for Health’s formula is 100% vegan and made in a cGMP facility with third-party testing for heavy metals and contaminants.

Who is Creatine Monohydrate Powder for?
Creatine Monohydrate Powder suits athletes, strength trainers, people wanting to maintain muscle mass with age, biohackers, the longevity-focused and vegetarians/vegans who do not get enough creatine from their diet. It is one of the most universally useful supplements on the market – useful for most adults regardless of sex or age.
Do I need to do a “loading phase”?
No, a loading phase (20 g/day for 5–7 days) is not necessary. Modern research shows that a daily intake of 5 g reaches the same muscle saturation in about 3–4 weeks as a loading phase – but with less risk of digestive discomfort. Many therefore prefer the simple daily 5 g strategy. The product is not a replacement for medical treatment.
When during the day should I take creatine?
The most important thing is to take it daily – the time of day matters less. Some studies suggest creatine after training may be slightly more effective, but the difference is small. Choose the time that best fits your routine and helps you stay consistent.
How long does one jar last?
One jar contains 450 g of powder, which equals 90 servings of 5 g. At one serving a day it lasts 3 months.
Do I need creatine if I do not train?
Research shows creatine has benefits beyond strength training, for example in cognitive function, brain health and maintaining muscle mass with age. Although the effects are better documented for athletes, more and more practitioners use creatine as a general longevity supplement.
Where and how is the product made?
Creatine Monohydrate Powder is made in the USA by Designs for Health in a facility following cGMP standards (current Good Manufacturing Practices) regulated by the FDA. The creatine undergoes third-party testing for identity, potency and the absence of heavy metals and contaminants.
Does creatine cause water retention?
Creatine draws water into the muscle cells, which can give a small weight gain (usually 1–2 kg) during the first weeks. This is intracellular water in the muscle, however, not oedema under the skin. Drink plenty of water daily to support your body’s fluid balance.
