Creatine gluconate

Creatine gluconate

Creatine Gluconate is a molecule of creatine bonded to a molecule of glucose. This synthetic alteration allegedly allows for greater intake of creatine in the gut because it is bonded to fast-digesting glucose. As glucose triggers an insulin response it also helps the uptake of creatine in the muscles themselves. [Steenge, G. R., Simpson, J., and Greenhaff, P. L. (2000).
