This tub from German Elite Nutrition provides 3410 mg of \u003cstrong\u003ecreatine monohydrate\u003c\/strong\u003e per 5-gram serving, including 3000 mg of pure creatine, plus 500 mg of L-taurine. There are 110 servings in 550 grams. Designed for athletes who train hard and prefer flavoured creatine to plain powder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePapaya: tropical and smooth in your shaker\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePapaya tastes different from what most people put in their shaker. Smooth and tropical, with a sweetness that lingers rather than being sharp. Strawberry and lemon both have that tingling tartness. That little bit of sourness you start to notice after three weeks. Papaya doesn't. Its flavour is closer to creamy fruit. Almost like a thin smoothie, making it easy to drink down after a tough session. If you're looking for papaya creatine, you're already choosing to step off the beaten path. The range offers eight flavours, but this one is by far the least conventional. That's no small detail. You'll be drinking this from the same tub every day, so the flavour that won't irritate you will win out in the long run. And tropical fruit stays appealing longer than yet another red candy flavour. It is sweet, but not syrupy. You won't be left with a sticky film in your mouth, even if you drink it lukewarm. Papaya is also naturally quite mild, so the flavour doesn't shout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCreatine and back-to-back heavy sets\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThink of a set of five squats, followed by two minutes of rest, then another five. Creatine improves physical performance during repeated short bursts of very intense physical exercise. That claim is based on a daily intake of 3 grams of creatine. You'll get that here: 3410 mg of creatine monohydrate provides 3000 mg of pure creatine. Each serving also contains 500 mg of L-taurine. Taurine is an amino acid your body produces naturally, which you also get from fish and meat. Many athletes wonder exactly how much powder they need to take. Simply put: 5 grams a day, which is two scoops. No more is needed, even during a heavy training week.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy you should also take it on rest days\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis isn't a pre-workout you drink down half an hour before your first set. It's about the stores in your muscles. You build those up by doing the same thing every day. If you skip a few days, those stores will slowly decline again. That's why you should take your serving on rest days too. Take it at a time you'll remember without thinking. At breakfast, after dinner, or in the car on your way to work. It doesn't matter. The monohydrate form doesn't require a complicated schedule or precision timing. What does matter: you keep it up for weeks on end. So even during the week you don't go to the gym, and the week you're on holiday. With 110 servings in a tub, you'll have plenty to last a while.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFlavour added, creatine remains the same\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere's a persistent idea that flavoured powder contains less creatine than plain stuff. Is that true? No. This tub contains micronised creatine powder, meaning very finely ground particles. It also contains citric acid as an acid regulator, L-taurine, flavouring, and the sweetener sucralose. Nothing else. No sugar, no fat, zero calories per serving. It contains no aspartame, and the entire formula is vegan. The micronised creatine mixes into water or fruit juice without leaving a layer of sand at the bottom. Fruit juice also works well with this flavour. Apple juice or pear juice enhances the tropical touch just a little more. Take at least 250 ml, otherwise it will become too thick. Flavoured creatine therefore contains exactly the same 3410 mg of creatine monohydrate per serving as an unflavoured tub. The only difference is how easy it is to drink down. And that determines whether you'll still be taking it every day three months from now.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePapaya remains an outlier among creatine flavours, and that's exactly the idea here. 110 servings in a 550-gram tub, the same 5 grams every day, without sugar or aspartame. A tropical flavour that's still easy to drink down after a few months.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"German Elite Nutrition","offers":[{"title":"Papaya","offer_id":54258426315090,"sku":"gen-121-008","price":15.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/9006\/2812\/files\/gen-flavoured-creatine-plus-550g-papaya-gen-1.jpg?v=1793634792","url":"https:\/\/www.luto-supplements.nl\/en\/products\/flavoured-creatine-plus-550g-papaya-gen","provider":"LUTO Supplements","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
