Most Effective Creatine Product, Excellent Value
After trying several different supplements over the past two decades, I have been most pleased with the Body Fortress High Performance Creatine because of its efficacy and its price. Within a few days after starting to take this product, I am able to squeeze out a few additional reps to my heaviest upper body free weight sets. The effect appears disappear within a few days of ceasing to take the recommended daily serving.  The only downside to this product (or any other creatine product for that matter) is that is does increase bodyweight by 1-2% almost immediately, presumably through the addition of water weight.<br /><br />Unlike pure creatine alternatives, Body Fortress High Performance Creatine contains carbohydrates so each suggested serving will contain about 150 calories.  Some nutritionists feel that carbohydrates provide a transport vehicle for the creatine molecule. While I have no way of scientifically verifying this, the product sure seems to work better than pure creatine.  Additionally, it tastes far superior than pure creatine alternatives which effectively taste like sand. I find the product nice to take in the morning because of sweetness and the stimulant effect of taurine (i.e. key ingredient in Red Bull), which it also contains.<br /><br />What is especially great about Body Fortress High Performance Creatine product is its extremely reasonable price at approximately $13 per giant container (~two month supply). You can get it at discount retailers such as Target or Wal-Mart for 1/3 the price of similar products at GNC or health clubs.  Unfortunately, there doesn't appear to be much of an online retail channel at this time, except for eBay.<br /><br />In short, this is the best value in creatine supplements if you can accept the additional calories.
