Nutrova Creatine Monohydrate (Unflavoured)

Creatine is a compound your body produces naturally and stores in your muscles. It's used to regenerate ATP: the energy your muscles and brain run on. Supplementing with creatine increases these stores, giving your body a larger, more consistent energy reserve to draw from throughout the day.

Any healthy adult, not just people who work out. Whether you're training regularly, managing a demanding schedule, or looking to maintain strength and sharpness as you age, creatine can be beneficial.

1 scoop a day, mixed into about 150ml of water. Creatine works by gradually building up your stores over time. The more consistently you take it, the more your body has to work with.

Creatine can be taken at any time of the day. What matters is taking it daily, so your phosphocreatine stores stay consistently topped up.

Creatine works gradually, by building up your phosphocreatine stores over time. Most people notice improvements in strength, recovery, and mental clarity within 3–4 weeks of consistent daily use.

Any initial shift on the scale is simply increased water inside your muscle cells, not fat. This is your muscles drawing in more water as creatine increases your phosphocreatine stores, which is a normal part of how it works. Over time, this contributes to a fuller, stronger appearance rather than unwanted bulk.

Yes. Creatine monohydrate is one of the most extensively researched supplements available. Evidence consistently supports its safety for healthy adults with long-term daily use.

Yes. Women have naturally lower creatine stores than men, making supplementation particularly relevant. Research supports its safety and effectiveness across all life stages, including perimenopause and menopause.

In healthy individuals, there is no evidence of kidney damage or strain at standard doses, even with long-term use. If you have a pre-existing kidney condition, check with your doctor before use.

There is no conclusive clinical evidence linking creatine supplementation to hair loss. This belief stems from a 2009 study on rugby players that found an increase in DHT, a hormone associated with hair loss, not hair loss itself. More recent research, including a 2025 study that measured hair density and growth, has found no direct link.

Yes. Staying well-hydrated supports better absorption and helps your body make the most of it.

Yes. Creatine is well-tolerated alongside most supplements and mixes into any drink without changing the taste.
