The most studied compound, from the most famous patent
Creatine is the most scientifically studied compound in sports nutrition due to its proven effectiveness and long-term safety. Since its discovery as a dietary supplement, it has been the subject of thousands of studies examining its impact on athletes. Its mode of action, involving the phosphagen system in the body, is well understood and supported by sports physiology, providing logic and background to the proven effectiveness results.
Creatine has been scientifically studied for decades and has had such an impact that it has been tested on many types of people with different contexts and needs, reinforcing its support.
Creapure® is the most internationally recognized creatine patent due to its high purity and quality, established as the standard in the supplement industry. Manufactured in Germany by AlzChem, Creapure® undergoes rigorous production processes and quality tests to ensure it is free from impurities and contaminants, such as creatinine, dicyandiamide (DCD), and dihydrotriazine (DHT). This attention to detail and commitment to purity has earned the trust of athletes worldwide, making it a sought-after patent preferred by many.
At HSN, we recognize the value of quality, and in our catalog, you can find different types of creatine, as it is the most scientifically supported compound, including the quality patent Creapure®, since we appreciate AlzChem’s transparency efforts and for almost a decade, when the patent wasn’t as well known but already had its characteristic quality, we decided to use it in our products.
Creapure®: International quality backing
Creatine monohydrate is the best form of creatine
Creatine monohydrate is the best and most scientifically studied form of creatine due to its molecular simplicity, effectiveness, and stability. This form consists of one creatine molecule bound to one water molecule, making it highly bioavailable and easy for the body to absorb. Its simple structure requires no modifications to be effective, making it a reliable option for those looking to efficiently optimize their creatine levels. Additionally, its chemical stability allows it to be stored with less risk of degradation than less studied forms, making it practical for regular consumption.
Creatine monohydrate has been the subject of extensive scientific research over decades, allowing a solid database on its safety, effectiveness, and mechanisms of action. This form has been evaluated in numerous studies covering different populations, including people of various ages, genders, and activity levels. This broad research has helped scientists better understand how it works in the body and its potential benefits for performance, consolidating its position as the reference standard for creatine supplementation over other forms like the well-known ethyl ester.
Creapure® Creatine is 100% creatine monohydrate.
Free from DCD, DHT, and creatinine degradation
One of the main features defining Creapure® quality is its strict purity control, ensuring it is free from impurities such as dicyandiamide (DCD), dihydrotriazine (DHT), and creatinine degradation. These compounds are by-products that can appear during creatine synthesis if production processes are not properly controlled.
The presence of DCD and DHT, in particular, can indicate poor chemical synthesis or lack of quality control in the final product. By guaranteeing the absence of these impurities, Creapure® positions itself as one of the purest and safest creatine forms available on the market.
Creapure® production takes place under strict standards in high-tech facilities in Germany, where rigorous quality control is applied at every stage of manufacturing. This includes constant monitoring of synthesis conditions and advanced analytical testing to detect any impurities. The result is a final product that not only meets but exceeds international purity standards. The absence of DCD and DHT demonstrates Creapure®’s commitment to excellence in creatine production, assuring consumers they are getting a top-quality product.
Another key aspect of Creapure® quality is its chemical stability, which prevents creatine from degrading into creatinine, a by-product that can form when creatine is not highly pure or improperly stored. Creatinine does not have the desired effects of creatine, and its presence in a supplement may indicate lower product effectiveness. Creapure® minimizes this degradation through its optimized manufacturing process, ensuring the final product maintains its integrity throughout its shelf life. This reinforces Creapure®’s reputation as a creatine of maximum purity, widely recognized and respected in the sports supplementation industry.
Of course, at HSN you’ll also find a creatine monohydrate option, not Creapure®, with the same quality controls and guarantees of absence of contaminants and degradation. This doesn’t mean we don’t value the control, quality, and transparency of the Creapure® patent, which doesn’t need our added value as a reference quality brand; that’s why we work with Creapure® and value it highly as a quality raw material.
