Prolab has been around since 1989, and remains one of the better known names among bodybuilders and athletes. They haven't created anything too ground-breaking or innovative, but they are known for producing quality products at an acceptable price.
Prolab's Creatine Monohydrate is a pure creatine supplement. Taking Creatine Monohydrate - Prolab's "high quality" creatine, made in Germany and tested for purity and safety - can help to increase strength, size and overall performance. By increasing the body's resynthesis of ATP (andenosine triphosphate) from ADP (andenosine diphosphate) during muscle contractions, Prolab's creatine monohydrate may also help boost anaerobic power and raise energy output during intense training.Because Prolab provides straight creatine with no additives or proprietary formulas, it tends to be less expensive than the creatine blends you can find (that don't necessarily offer significantly better results). It's a straightforward product, and one of the supplements recommended by "Team Prolab" bodybuilder "Addo" Martin Luther King.
For the loading phase, dissolve one rounded teaspoon (or 5g) of creatine powder in juice or water, four times a day (20g in total) for five days. During the maintenance period, take one rounded teaspoon twice daily. If you're taking the capsules, the dose is 10 capsules (7g) three times a day during the loading phase (three to five days) and 5 capsules (3.5g) three times daily during the maintenance period.

Most reviewers (though not all) found Prolab's Creatine Monohydrate supplement to be effective and free of side effects. They reported benefits like being able to lift more weight after taking this creatine for a short time. In general, it seems to be a reliable, quality product that offers dependable results. Prolab's Creatine Monohydrate mixes well, but is flavorless so it ends up tasting chalky.
