Punked on Creatine Ethyl Ester!
By Eric Marchewitz B.S.
Creatine Ethyl Ester has been proven in at least two studies to not be as
effective as simple creatine monohydrate and creatine salts like creatine
malate. Sadly, this ingredient was pushed upon all of us and sold as the
"next best thing", yet creatine ethyl ester has been again debunked as a
inferior form of creatine.
Good creatine monohydrate is best along with creatine salts like "creatine
citrate, creatine orotate, creatine malate". The latest 2009 study reported
"In conclusion, when compared to creatine monohydrate, creatine ethyl ester
was not as effective at increasing serum and muscle creatine levels or in
improving body composition, muscle mass, strength, and power." So, creatine
ethyl ester isn't even implicated in improving muscle creatine levels. Buyer
beware creatine ethyl ester products.
