What sets Form Creatine apart is its highly micronised particle size, significantly finer than standard creatine powders. This means it dissolves quickly and completely, with none of the chalky, gritty texture that puts people off other creatines. It’s Informed Sport Certified, so whether you’re a professional athlete or simply training consistently, you can trust it’s been independently tested for banned substances. And like everything Form makes, it comes in compostable packaging with no plastic scoops.
But creatine isn’t just for the gym. Emerging research shows it supports cognitive function too, improving memory, attention and mental processing speed¹ ⁶. Your brain uses around 20% of your body’s energy, and creatine helps ensure it has the fuel it needs. For those on a plant-based diet, supplementation is especially relevant⁷, since dietary creatine comes primarily from meat and fish. Add it to your post-workout shake, mix it into water, or stir it into your morning coffee. It’s unflavoured and dissolves cleanly, so it fits seamlessly into your routine.
frequently asked questions
What is creatine monohydrate?
Creatine is a naturally occurring compound found in muscle and brain cells. It helps your body regenerate ATP – the primary energy source for high-intensity exercise and demanding cognitive tasks. Creatine monohydrate is the most researched and effective form of supplemental creatine.
How much should I take?
We recommend 5g (one level teaspoon) per day, mixed into water, juice or your protein shake. Consistency is more important than timing, take it whenever suits your routine. Some people choose to do a loading phase of 20g per day (split into 4 x 5g servings) for the first 5–7 days to saturate muscle stores faster, but this is optional. A daily 5g dose will achieve the same saturation within 3–4 weeks.
Is Creatine safe?
Yes. Creatine monohydrate is one of the most extensively studied supplements available. The International Society of Sports Nutrition has confirmed that both short and long-term supplementation (up to 30g per day for up to 5 years) is safe and well-tolerated in healthy individuals across all age groups². As always, if you have a pre-existing medical condition, consult your doctor before starting any new supplement.
Will it make me bloated?
Creatine draws water into your muscle cells, which can cause a small increase in body weight (typically 1–2kg during the first week or two). This is intracellular water — it’s inside the muscle, not under your skin, so it doesn’t cause a puffy or bloated appearance. Most people don’t notice it at all at a maintenance dose of 5g per day.
What does “highly micronised” mean?
Micronisation is the process of reducing particle size. Our creatine is ground to a much finer powder than standard creatine monohydrate, which means it dissolves more readily and doesn’t leave the gritty, chalky residue that many people experience with other creatines.
5g of pure creatine monohydrate for strength and power
Creatine monohydrate is recognised by the International Society of Sports Nutrition as the most effective ergogenic supplement available for increasing high-intensity exercise capacity and lean body mass during training². Each 5g serving of Form Creatine saturates your muscles with phosphocreatine, providing the energy reserve you need for explosive performance, faster recovery between sets, and greater training volume over time.
Highly micronised for superior mixability
Standard creatine powders can be coarse and gritty, sitting at the bottom of your glass. Form Creatine is highly micronised, ground to a much finer particle size than typical creatines so it dissolves quickly and completely in water, juice or your protein shake. No clumps. No chalky residue. Just smooth, effortless mixing.
Cognitive function and brain health
Creatine isn’t just fuel for your muscles. A 2024 meta-analysis of 16 randomised controlled trials found that creatine supplementation significantly improved memory, attention and information processing speed in adults¹. Creatine supports brain energy metabolism by maintaining cellular ATP levels, which is particularly important during demanding cognitive tasks and periods of sleep deprivation³. For those following a vegan or vegetarian diet, who typically have lower baseline creatine stores, supplementation has been shown to improve both physical and cognitive performance⁴.
Informed Sport Certified for total confidence
Every batch of Form Creatine is Informed Sport Certified, meaning it has been tested by LGC, a world-leading sports anti-doping laboratory, for banned substances. Whether you’re a competitive athlete subject to testing or simply someone who wants complete transparency about what you’re putting in your body, this certification gives you that assurance
