CreaPure

Charisteas

I'm contemplating which Creatine product to purchase, and as price isn't too much of a stumbling block with Creatine due to the reletively low price anywa, i've narrowed it down to purchasing either the TMU or Optimum Nutrition product.

Difference is though, whilst TMU (which I had previously been using but slightly put off by the gritty lack of dissolving into water) is pure Creatine powder, ON boast about their use of micronised CreaPure brand of Creatine Monohydrate.

Of course I conducted a little Google research before I posted here, but like most fitness and/or bodybuilding websites, they seem to praise anything with a bunch of advertisements to purchase said product underneath, so you never really know what to believe.

I have also used Hyper Strength's creatine product in the past, but i've been recommended to use only the big name brands for Creatine.

Anyway i'm rambling here, so do you guys recommend a CreaPure based Creatine (a lack of gritty taste and texture is very appealing) or should I just stick with the tried and tested pure Creatine Monohydrate?

Are there any other benefits apart from the promise of a more easily dissolving product?

I will take mono type.

It does almost same in your body.
If it is mono type, it has the exactly same chemical structure.

I wouldn't bother with a Creapure based product, just take Creapure itself:

It's just creatine monohydrate with 99.99% purity compated with 99.9% of standard bulk powders. Wether or not that demands the price premium is up to you. I got a great deal on a kilo of it a while ago, was cheaper than a kilo of standard.
