Evidence supporting the use of: Magnesium Creatine
For the body system: Muscles
Synopsis
Source of validity: Scientific
Rating (out of 5): 4
Magnesium creatine, a compound combining creatine with magnesium, is used to support the muscular system primarily due to the well-established role of creatine in muscle energy metabolism and performance. Numerous scientific studies demonstrate that creatine supplementation increases intramuscular stores of phosphocreatine, thereby enhancing the rapid regeneration of ATP during high-intensity, short-duration exercises such as weightlifting and sprinting. This leads to improvements in muscle strength, power, and exercise capacity. Magnesium itself is a vital electrolyte involved in muscle contraction and relaxation. Some studies suggest that combining creatine with magnesium may enhance creatine uptake and reduce water retention compared to creatine monohydrate alone, though the evidence for superior efficacy is limited compared to standard creatine supplementation. Research published in peer-reviewed journals supports creatine’s benefits for increasing muscle mass, performance, and aiding in recovery, with less, but still positive, evidence specific to magnesium creatine chelate. The International Society of Sports Nutrition recognizes creatine as one of the most effective supplements for improving exercise performance. In summary, while creatine’s effectiveness is robustly validated, the unique benefits of magnesium creatine are less established but still supported by initial scientific evidence.
