🍚 So I switched away from Optimum Nutrition's creatine because they oddly stopped using Creapure creatine and on Amazon they say they are kinda trying to hide that they stopped using Creapure and everyone's asking "why???" (probably it was too expensive)
But creatine should be expensive for your safety:
Creapure is the premium, highly pure and highly tested (!) brand of creatine monohydrate produced in Germany by AlzChem Trostberg GmbH, it's a supplier so you can't buy directly from them, but you can search Creapure creatine and if a product has their logo, it's good (they come down at anyone trying to use their logo falsely of course)
A lot of creatine supplements these days have contaminants as they're from China and may contain trace heavy metals (mercury especially), residual amine byproducts/thiourea derivatives, or dimethyl sulphate residue which all cause neurological issues, I was getting headaches recently and I never have headaches so I switched to Creapure just to be safe
Being from China is fine btw, it's just that then you don't know if it's tested, Creapure's entire thing is they test rigorously and professional athletes use it because they have to pass doping tests so they can't risk getting contaminated supplements!
This one is called "Dymatize Creatine Monohydrate Unflavoured Powder"
Unaffiliated, I just like the creatine!
