Creatine: the most studied supplement in bodybuilding

Creatine monohydrate is currently the most scientifically documented food supplement in the field of sports performance. Authorized in France since 2008 and not prohibited for athletes, it is sought after by bodybuilders and strength athletes to support performance during brief and intense efforts, such as squats, bench presses, or deadlifts.

The classic recommended dosage is between 3 and 5 grams per day, taken daily, including on rest days, to maintain saturation of muscle reserves. Creatine comes in several forms: unflavored powder, flavored powder, capsules, effervescent tablets, or even gummies, each serving a different purpose depending on consumption preferences.
