What Organika Creatine is licensed for

It is licensed for sale by Health Canada and bears NPN 80129309. The licence lists two recommended uses:

• Improves strength in repetitive bouts of brief, highly-intense physical activity (e.g. sprints, jumping, resistance training).
• Increases lean muscle mass when used in conjunction with a resistance training regimen.

How creatine works

Creatine is a compound your body builds from amino acids, and most of it is stored in muscle as phosphocreatine. Muscle cells draw on that reserve to refuel during short, hard efforts: a heavy set, a sprint, a jump. Taking creatine every day tops up the store. It is one of the most studied ingredients in sports nutrition, and creatine monohydrate is the form used in most of that research.

Why micronized and unflavoured

Micronized means the powder is milled to a finer particle, so it disperses more easily in liquid instead of sitting at the bottom of the glass. With no flavour of its own, it goes into water, juice, a protein shake or a smoothie without changing the taste. The label lists one ingredient, so there are no sweeteners, colours or fillers to work around.

Pick your format

Organika makes the same 5 g dose in several formats. This unflavoured 500 g tub is the plainest and the most flexible. Fruit Punch and Lemonade come in 600 g tubs for people who drink it on its own. Single-serve sachets suit a gym bag, and the Blueberry Blitz gummies are a no-mixing option.

How to take it

Adults 18 and over can start with a loading phase: 1 scoop (5 g) 3 to 4 times a day for 5 to 7 days. After that, take 1 scoop a day. Stir each scoop into 500 ml of water or another drink. The label cautions are under How to Take.

Organika Creatine FAQ

Do I have to do the loading phase?

The label gives a loading phase followed by a daily maintenance dose. Loading fills your muscle stores faster. Starting straight at 1 scoop a day is the simpler routine.

Will creatine make me gain weight?

The label notes you may gain weight. Creatine draws water into muscle tissue, which can show up on the scale.

How many servings are in the tub?

100 servings of 5 g, or about three months at the daily maintenance dose.

Who should check with a practitioner first?

The label asks you to consult a health care practitioner before use if you have a kidney disorder or are pregnant or breastfeeding.
