FAQ:
 
 
How do I begin taking Creatine+?
You can begin taking John's Killer Protein® - Creatine+ as follows:
Daily Dose: Take one scoop of creatine+ (each scoop has 5g of Creatine and 2g ofo Taurine) per day, with or without food.
Optional Loading Phase: For faster saturation, take 4 scoops per day, spread out throughout the day, for 5-7 days, then switch to one scoop daily.
Best Time to Take It: Anytime works, but post-workout with a meal or shake may enhance absorption.
Stay Hydrated: Creatine+ pulls water into muscles, so drink plenty of water throughout the day.
This Creatine+ dissolves instantly in any liquid and is flavorless, so you can add it to your favorite smoothie, protein shake, or beverage of choice.
 
Does creatine+ cause water retention or bloating?
The idea that creatine causes bloating is a common misconception. Creatine pulls water into the muscles, not under the skin, leading to fuller, more hydrated muscles rather than puffiness. Any initial water retention typically subsides as the body adapts. Most women do not experience noticeable bloating, especially when taking the standard daily dose of creatine+ instead of doing a high-dose loading phase.
 
 
Will creatine+ make me bulky or gain weight?
Creatine+ does not directly cause muscle bulk or fat gain. It works by increasing the water content in muscle cells, which can make muscles look slightly fuller. Some women may experience a small increase in weight (usually 1-3 lbs) due to water retention which will be lost after the body adjusts - usually within 14 to 20 days.  This is not fat gain, instead, it’s a sign that creatine+ is working to support healthy muscles.
 
Is creatine+ safe for women to take?
Yes, creatine and taurine are one of the most studied and safest supplements available.  Both are naturally occurring compounds found in small amounts in foods like meat and fish, and the body also produces them. Studies have consistently shown that creatine+ supplementation has no harmful effects on kidney or liver function in healthy individuals when taken at recommended doses (3-5 grams per day).
 
 
How much creatine+ should you take daily?
The recommended daily creatine+ dosage differs slightly based on body size rather than gender, but here’s a general guideline:
For Women:
One scoop per day, which contains 5g of Creatine and 2g of Taurine is sufficient for most women to maintain full muscle creatine stores.
For Men:
One scoop of 5 grams creatine and 2g taurine per day is the standard dose for most men.
Larger men (over 200 lbs) may benefit from one to two scoops per day (5-10 grams of Creatine and 2-4 grams of Taurine per day) to fully saturate muscles.
Creatine+ Loading (Optional but recommended for Faster Saturation):
Both men & women can do a loading phase of 28 grams per day (split into 4 doses) for 5-7 days, then switch to a maintenance dose (5-7g for women, 7g+ for men).
However, a daily steady dose (7g) will still reach full saturation in 2-4 weeks without loading.
Most women do well with 3/4 to a full scoop (5-7 grams per day) of creatine+. This is enough to fully saturate muscles over time. Higher doses are not necessary unless following a loading phase.
 
 
Do I need to do a loading phase when taking creatine+?
A loading phase is optional. The traditional loading phase involves taking 28 grams per day (split into 4 doses) for 5-7 days, which saturates muscle stores faster.
However, women can simply take 5-7 grams per day consistently, and full muscle saturation will still occur within 2-4 weeks. Skipping the loading phase avoids potential temporary water retention.
Each scoop of John's Killer Protein® - creatine+ contains 5g of creatine and 2 grams of taurine.
 
 
 
Is creatine+ safe for women during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
It is best to speak with your doctor before using creatine while breastfeeding or pregnant, as there is not a lot of research on its use during those times.
 
 
When is the best time to take creatine, before or after workouts?
Timing is not as important as taking John's Killer Protein® - creatine+ taurine consistently. However, research suggests taking creatine+ after workouts may be slightly more effective. Other good options:
With a meal, as insulin from food helps absorption.
Before bed, for overnight muscle support.
Anytime daily, as long as you take it consistently.
 
 
Does creatine cause kidney damage?
 
No, creatine does not cause kidney damage in healthy individuals.
Extensive research shows that creatine+ is safe when taken at recommended doses.
John's Killer Protein® - creatine+ is formulated to give you the ideal dose of 5g creatine and 2g taurine in every scoop, to be taken daily.
While creatine increases creatinine levels, which is a marker used in kidney tests, this does not indicate kidney damage—just that your body is metabolizing creatine.
 
Who Should Be Cautious?
If you have pre-existing kidney disease or a history of kidney issues, consult a doctor before taking creatine.
Stay hydrated, as creatine pulls water into muscles, but dehydration—not creatine—can stress the kidneys.
Bottom Line:
For healthy individuals, creatine does NOT harm the kidneys. It’s one of the most well-researched and safest supplements available.
