1 serving = 7 capsulesDirections: 1 serving a dayLabel as of 23 Feb 2025 · NIH DSLD

Verdict

5 g a dayas the label directs · studies use 3–5 g/day of creatine monohydrate

Effective dose

Taken as the label directs (1 serving a day, 5 g each), it gives 5 g a day; studies use 3–5 g/day.

One capsule gives 714 mg, so reaching the low end of what studies use (3 g) takes 4.2 capsules a day; it ranks 6th of 24 creatine supplements here by dose.

5 capsules a day reach 3 g.

Heard about 20 g a day for the brain? What the brain studies used, and why to split a large dose.
