Creatine+

Creatine is a naturally occurring amino acid derivative found mostly in skeletal muscle and other energy-demanding tissues like the brain. Creatine is converted into phosphocreatine by cells in our body and this creatine-phospocreatine system functions as a rapid-response energy reservoir. The body needs to replenish about 1-3 g of creatine per day to maintain normal creatine stores depending on muscle mass (clinical populations and athletes may need more (up to 30 g/day). Supplementation with creatine monohydrate is considered the most effective nutritional strategy for individuals wanting to maintain and increase strength by the International Society of Sports Nutrition, with over 680 peer-reviewed clinical trials.

Muscle mass and strength decline faster starting around age 40—and by 80, the average person may lose approximately 30% of both. Supplementation with creatine is clinically proven to improve lean muscle mass and strength when combined with exercise. Elysium’s Creatine+ is an advanced creatine system to help you stay stronger as you age while targeting multiple pathways of longevity.

HMB is a metabolite of the essential amino acid leucine and has been studied for nearly 30 years. HMB reduces muscle damage due to exercise and speed recovery by reducing muscle protein breakdown and promoting muscle protein synthesis. Clinical studies have also shown a synergistic effect of HMB when combined with creatine (at 3 g HMB + 10 g creatine monohydrate daily dose) on lean body mass and an additive effect on muscle strength during resistance training. HMB alone (at 3 g daily dose) has also been shown to improve muscle function in older adults in the absence of exercise. These participants had insufficient baseline levels of vitamin D3 and were supplemented with 2,000 IUs of D3 in addition to HMB.

Urolithin A is a naturally occurring compound produced by your gut bacteria when you consume certain foods like pomegranates, walnuts, and berries. It’s important for cellular health as it stimulates mitophagy, a cellular cleanup process that clears out old mitochondria to help rejuvenate cellular energy and function. Clinical trials have shown that urolithin A supplementation improves muscle endurance. Creatine+ contains a highly researched pomegranate extract standardized to high levels of punicalagins—the precursor molecules that your gut microbes use to synthesize urolithin A.

While individual results may vary, studies show that 3-5 g per day of creatine monohydrate results in creatine saturation in muscle at ~30 days. By 12 weeks, participants in studies demonstrate improved training adaptation and increased exercise capacity, along with gains in strength and muscle mass with exercise.

Each pouch of Creatine+ contains two delicious flavors: raspberry and pomegranate lemonade. Try adding it to sparkling water or iced tea for an even more refreshing take.

We recommend mixing one stick pack in 8-12 fl oz of water and consuming once daily. The mixture should be consumed within a few hours as creatine begins to convert to creatinine if stored in solution for a prolonged period of time. We recommend keeping the solution cold/refrigerated if you need to wait to consume it.

While we recommend one stick pack of Creatine+ per day, which contains 5 g of creatine monohydrate and 1.5 g HMB, short-term studies show no adverse effects of supplementation with up to 20 g/day of creatine monohydrate. In fact, emerging studies suggest that short term supplementation of creatine at high doses (~2-4x Creatine+) may help alleviate fading of cognitive performance during times of mental stress, like sleep deprivation. HMB has also been studied up to 6 g doses with no adverse effects.

Our prepaid subscription plans are our most cost-effective options. When you select a prepaid annual plan, the pricing offers a savings to customers who commit to a long-term subscription, $55/pouch for an annual (12-month) subscription. These prepaid subscriptions are considered final sale, so if you cancel in the middle of an annual plan, you will continue to receive the remaining pouches, and the cancellation will take effect at the end of your plan before renewal. Our monthly subscriptions are $60/month and can be canceled at any time prior to your next shipment. You can also place a single-purchase order by selecting “Individual Purchase” on the checkout page for $70. Please contact our Customer Experience Team at care@elysiumhealth.com if you need to talk about your plan.
