Product Description
If you’re like most people, you hear "Creatine" and think Arnold Schwarzenegger. Gym bro. Mass. While that's not necessarily nor comprehensively appropriate here, it is true that creatine helps build muscle strength and power in athletes. This is because it is an amino acid which regenerates ATP supplies during exercise + phosphocreatine supplies after exercise.
What you may not know is the wide array of benefits it has to all athletes and performance. Creatine is one of the most studied, proven performance supplements in existence.
Creatine has been proven to support improved power and endurance, lean muscle mass, recovery between sessions, cognitive function and much more. It's a no-brainer (pun intended).
Why do we love Thorne Creatine?
Thorne has developed a micronized version of creatine that dissolves easily in water or other liquids. It's colorless, odorless, and will be the perfect invisible supplement in your smoothie or post-workout shake! Additionally, they are one of few brands providing tasty flavored options for creatine –from Reb. M. rather than artificial sweeteners– making it easier than ever to make a habit.
If you are afraid of a weight gain with this product, you must remember that creatine boosts hydration within your cells causing a temporary increase in "water weight". Yet, this is avoidable and not likely an issue at the amounts we'd take as endurance athletes. You can actually saturate the body more progressively over a few weeks to avoid the drastic "loading phase" many strength athletes do.
How to use Thorne Creatine Monohydrate:
Mix 1 level scoop (5 g) with at least 8 ounces of water, juice, or choice beverage daily or as recommended. We like to use this 30-90 minutes before exercise.
To avoid the "loading phase" as mentioned above, you can just take 5 g daily for two + weeks.
With the support of NSF For Sport Certification, you can't go wrong with Thorne.

Thorne Creatine - FAQ
Everything you need to know about Thorne Creatine.
Pure micronized creatine monohydrate from Thorne — 5g per serving, colorless, odorless, and dissolves completely in water or any liquid. NSF Certified for Sport. Available unflavored or in naturally sweetened flavors.
Your muscles store creatine phosphate and use it to rapidly resynthesize ATP during short, intense efforts. More creatine stored in the muscle means more fuel available for those bursts before fatigue sets in. It also supports brain function — creatine is a fuel source for the brain, not just the muscles. Consistent supplementation keeps those stores saturated.
No. Any sport with explosive efforts benefits — sprint triathlons, criteriums, HIIT, team sports. The research on creatine for endurance athletes is also growing, particularly around cognitive performance and recovery.
Micronization. Thorne grinds the creatine particles finer than standard powder, which means it dissolves completely with no grit and no clumping. It's also one of the few brands offering flavored creatine sweetened with Reb. M (a natural sweetener) rather than artificial sweeteners — easier to build into a daily habit if straight powder isn't your thing.
5g once daily mixed into at least 8oz of water, juice, or a shake. Take it 30-90 minutes before training or stack it post-workout. No loading phase required — just take 5g daily for 2-3 weeks to reach full saturation. Consistency matters more than timing.
