Supports cognition under stress‡
Phosphocreatine buffers cerebral ATP as in muscle; a 0.35g/kg dose preserved processing speed across 21 h of sleep deprivation. Domain effects are inconsistent. Emerging, not established.
Increases lean body mass‡
Pooled across 12 trials, creatine plus training added 1.14 kg lean mass (95% CI 0.69 to 1.59) and reduced fat mass 0.73 kg versus training alone. Pooled body-composition effect size ~0.17.
Increases maximal strength‡
Across 22 studies, creatine with resistance training exceeded placebo by ~8% for maximal strength (20% vs 12%) and ~14% for weightlifting performance. ISSN: safe to 30g/day over five years.

Best creatine I’ve had. I usually struggle with digesting creatine as it gives me nausea. This is the first creatine that I’ve had that I’m able to consume and process totally fine. Strongly recommend you try it if you’ve had similar experiences with your body reacting to creatine in the past.

ArmandVerified buyer

★★★★★ ★★★★★

Really impressed with this creatine. The powder is extremely fine, mixes quickly without leaving much grit behind, and the unflavored formula makes it easy to add to anything. I also like that it contains just one ingredient and is third-party tested for purity and contaminants. It feels like a well-made, dependable product, and I would buy it again.

AlexanderVerified buyer

★★★★★ ★★★★★

I've tried many different creatine brands over the years, and this is easily the best I've used. I appreciate that it's a single, clearly labeled ingredient with no fillers. It dissolves completely with no grit at the bottom of the glass, and the flavor is clean without any gross aftertaste. Highly recommend to anyone serious about their supplement intake.

Believe me when I say I did not expect a creatine to change my whole morning, and yet here we are. I'm a mom of two and I've been lifting consistently for ten years, which means I've choked down more chalky, gritty, floating-on-top-of-the-water creatine than I care to admit. The kind that you painstakingly chug, and there's still a little sand dune of undissolved powder waiting for you at the bottom.
Well, not this one. It is the most fine powder that dissolves perfectly into just a few ounces of water. No grit, no clumps, no gross sandy last sip. For the first time in a decade I don't have to psych myself up to take my creatine, so I'm actually take it. I'm 30 days in and I've been more consistent with this one than any creatine I've ever used. I've even started going to the gym 4 days a week, and I haven't gone more than 3 since having kids. Also, ZERO stomach issues! none of the GI problems or bloating I've dealt with from other creatine brands.
My only complaint is that my husband has started stealing it. He has his own creatine sitting right there in the pantry, untouched and dbandoned. Because he decided mine is better and now we're apparently sharing a bag I did not agree to share. So if you buy this, maybe buy two. One for you, and one for the person in your house who's about to develop a sudden interest in your supplements.

I’ve been really happy with AntiLabs creatine powder! It mixes well without leaving a bunch of grit at the bottom and I love that it’s simple to add to my daily routine. I’ve been using it consistently and have noticed a difference in my strength during my workouts and I don’t bloat on this product like I do with other creatine brands I’ve tried. Overall it is great quality and worth the price!

MateenVerified buyer

★★★★★ ★★★★★

This is hands down the best creatine I’ve tried. It dissolves with no taste—I put it in my tea or coffee every morning and even in plain water if I’m doing another 5g at night.

MiaVerified buyer

★★★★★ ★★★★★

Incredible creatine! I've had Momentus, Thorne, and a few other brands but ANTI Labs beats all of them in taste and feeling. Highly recommend! (Also the bag is cool which is a plus)

ElliottVerified buyer

★★★★★ ★★★★★

My shipment arrived quickly and was in perfect condition. I love that it came in a bag (that looks awesome) and not a bulky plastic jug. This creatine is the best I've purchased as others were very bitter and it was difficult to hide the taste. This is so much better that I can put it in a glass of water and only get the slightest taste. This will be my go-to from here on.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it safe for my kidneys?

Yes, in healthy adults. It has been studied in trials running as long as five years. One thing worth knowing: creatine nudges serum creatinine up slightly, a breakdown product that can make a routine kidney panel look off without anything being wrong. Tell your physician you supplement so they read the number in context. If you already have kidney disease, talk to them first.

Will it cause me to retain water or bloat?

Not in the way most people mean. The early water gain is real: the ISSN's review attributes it primarily to intracellular volume, meaning water drawn into the muscle cell as your stores saturate rather than into the subcutaneous tissue that reads as puffiness. That accounts for the 1 to 2 kg some people see in the first couple of weeks. Over longer periods the picture is quieter, since several studies find no change in total body water relative to muscle mass, so the extra intracellular water simply tracks the muscle you're carrying. It's part of how creatine works, not a side effect.

GLP-1s and creatine?

Yes, and it is a very strong pairing. A 2026 meta-analysis of 20 trials found that a quarter to nearly 40% of the weight lost on GLP-1s is lean mass, and that resistance training cuts that to 17.5% when protein is adequate. Creatine is the most studied supplement in sport, with consistent gains in strength and lean mass in people who train, and there is no known interaction with your medication. A trial in GLP-1 users is now underway and reads out in 2027. Until then, it is a well-evidenced, low-risk addition. One note: creatine slightly raises serum creatinine, so mention it before a kidney panel.

Which form is best: monohydrate, HCl, or ethyl ester?

Monohydrate. Head-to-head, HCl came out equivalent: across eight weeks of resistance training it matched monohydrate on strength, hypertrophy, and hormonal response, with no advantage over it. Ethyl ester did worse: it was less effective at raising serum and muscle creatine than monohydrate. Equivalent at best, then, and the premium forms mostly exist to justify a bigger margin. We use creatine monohydrate, the form nearly every major clinical trial has actually run on.

Is this Creapure®?

CM-01 uses Creavitalis®, made by AlzChem, the manufacturer of Creapure®, at its production facility in Trostberg, Germany. Creavitalis® is AlzChem's newest creatine line. It is held to the same purity standard as Creapure® and is ultra-micronized, so it mixes more easily and tastes lighter.

Will creatine make me lose my hair?

No. A 2025 randomized trial measured hair-follicle density and DHT across 12 weeks on creatine and found no difference from placebo. The whole worry traces to a single 2009 study of twenty rugby players that saw a temporary rise in DHT, not hair loss, and even that has never been replicated.

How is your testing verified?

In three layers. First, manufacturing: our U.S. manufacturing facility is FDA-registered, NSF-certified and cGMP-certified, with verification steps throughout production. Second, independent testing: every finished lot is tested by an ISO 17025 accredited third-party laboratory for identity, purity, heavy metals, and microbial safety. Third, transparency: we publish the full results for every batch on our testing page, so you can look up the lot number printed on your pouch and read the measured values yourself.

Can I see the test results for my specific lot?

Yes. Every finished lot is tested by an ISO 17025 accredited third-party laboratory, and we publish the full result for each one on its own page, so you can read the measured values for the exact lot in your bag before you buy it. Our current batch is lot 60497, where you can see the identity, heavy-metal and microbiological results next to the specification each one had to clear. Lot 60497 was tested by Swift Laboratory (an ISO 17025-accredited third-party lab). Every published batch is listed on the testing page.

Is ANTI Labs NSF certified?

Not currently. We're in the process of NSF product certification and look forward to adding one more independent check. Our products already go through several. They're made in our U.S. manufacturing facility, which is NSF-certified, FDA-registered and cGMP-certified, with identity and quality checks at multiple steps of production, and every finished lot is independently tested by an ISO 17025 accredited laboratory for identity, heavy metals, and microbials. We publish the complete numerical results for each batch, so you can look up the exact lot in your hands. If you compete under a governing body that requires NSF Certified for Sport products, check its rules before supplementing.

Does creatine cause renal injury?

No. A 2025 systematic review of 21 studies, 12 of them pooled for meta-analysis, found no significant change in GFR or renal function markers from creatine supplementation. Long-term safety has been examined in controlled trials extending to five years. The original concern traces to two late-1990s case reports that have not been substantiated in subsequent prospective trials.

How should we interpret the serum creatinine elevation in supplementing patients?

Serum creatinine rises 10 to 20% from supplementation itself, a metabolic byproduct of creatine breakdown, not a damage marker. BUN, cystatin C, and the BUN:creatinine ratio remain unchanged, distinguishing supplementation-driven elevation from renal injury. For patients where renal monitoring is clinically important, cystatin-C-based eGFR avoids the creatinine confound.

How should we counsel patients with stage 2 to 3 CKD?

We default to deferring: discuss with the patient's nephrologist before initiating. The literature in healthy populations doesn't extrapolate cleanly to compromised renal function, and serum creatinine elevations from supplementation can confound monitoring. For stage 1 with stable function and no other risk factors, baseline + 12-week eGFR and cystatin C are reasonable.

What's the sourcing standard and analytical purity for CM-01?

We source micronized creatine monohydrate at ≥99.9% purity by HPLC. Manufacturing-byproduct specifications include dicyandiamide ≤50 mg/kg, dihydrotriazine <3 mg/kg, and residual creatinine <100 mg/kg. Heavy metals (As, Cd, Pb, Hg) each at <0.1 mg/kg. Every incoming lot is re-verified via third-party ISO 17025 lab, with numerical results published on the lot registry.

What's your 60-day guarantee?

Every order is covered by a 60-day guarantee. If you're not satisfied, return it within 60 days of delivery for a refund or replacement, for any reason. Full details are in our Refund Policy. Start a return through our returns portal.

How fast do you ship, and where?

We ship within the United States. Orders ship from our US fulfillment center within 1 business day.

Are your products third-party tested?

Yes. Every batch is third-party tested, and you can look up the results by lot.

Where are your products made?

In our U.S. manufacturing facility, which is NSF-certified, UL-registered, SQF-certified and GMP-certified.

How do you decide what to sell?

We review ingredients rigorously and publish our reasoning in the Formulary. We only sell what we'd take ourselves. Of the ingredients we've reviewed, we've rejected 95%.

How do your physicians review a product?

In three steps. First, Aaron Esagoff, MD (Johns Hopkins School of Medicine) reviews the clinical evidence and decides whether the ingredient is worth selling, in what form and at what dose. Second, every physician on our medical advisory board reviews it independently. All of them must agree that the evidence is clear and supports safety and efficacy across a robust set of human trials, that the dose and form match the evidence, and that they support the exact version we sell. Third, once it is sourced and produced, the board signs off again on its sourcing, our manufacturing quality and its independent test results. Final sign-off takes a unanimous board. See the full review process.

What is ANTI Labs' testing process?

Every lot goes through three distinct stages of testing. The raw ingredient is tested before it ships to our manufacturing facility, tested again when it arrives, and the finished product is tested once more after it is filled. Every lot's results are published on our testing page.

What happens if a lot fails testing?

We don't sell it. Every lot is tested against our stringent limits. If a result comes back outside a limit, we retest to verify. If it is still out of spec after retesting, the lot is rejected and never sold. See how testing works on our testing page.
