BASIC SUPPLEMENTS Micronized Creatine Monohydrate, 5000mg per Serving, Helps ...

As described and pictured. Well packaged and arrived quickly. Didn't benefit my needs.

This creatine meets all of my criteria: monohydrate, micronized, unflavored and 3rd party tested (being vegan is a plus as I’m vegetarian). I add 5 grams (I weigh it for consistency) and add it to my chocolate protein/mass gainer shake which I drink about 20 minutes after my workout. The price is a little high at almost $2/ounce (my previous creatine was about $1.30/ounce) but prices go up and down. I wish I hadn’t waited to so long to make creatine a part of my fitness regimen. I’m older now and lost a lot of valuable years (and muscle mass) to a car accident. But I’ve been back at it for a couple of years now. I started taking creatine a couple of months ago and I’m absolutely getting results… I’m going up in weights and I’m not dragging towards the end of my workouts. I would dread cardio because it would exhaust me but now I have a little energy to spare (I sound like one of those annoying commercials). And zero side effects. Seriously, consider adding creatine to your diet if you workout!

I am reviewing Basic Supplements brand creatine, unflavored, 10.6oz, which at the time of this review was $19.99. I have been taking creatine for a several months now, and definitely see an improvement, both in terms of my muscle gains, retention, and overall mood. This supplement is seemingly identical to my go-to brand, which is offered by bulksupplements. Overall it's a good product; mixes very easily, with no clumping or excessive sediment. No discernable flavor, so I'd call this a win. I'd say the only issue I see is you get a lot more creatine for the same price if you go with bulksupplements, but you do miss out on handy plastic jug. I think if they dropped the price to around $12 it'd be a good value for this size.
