Framework 125 · in one look
How to use it

In adults, creatine monohydrate is one of the best-studied supplements. In teens, the research is very limited. Under 18, food, sleep and training come first, and any supplement is a decision for you, your parents and a doctor.

How sure we are

P Evidence: promising. Good studies, but small or few. Use it and keep checking.
