Overview

MuscleTech Cell-Tech combines 5g creatine monohydrate with 38g of multi-stage carbohydrates (dextrose + ModCarb) and 200mg alpha-lipoic acid. The carbohydrate matrix creates an insulin spike that drives creatine into muscle cells more effectively — research shows consuming creatine with carbs increases muscle creatine uptake by up to 60% compared to creatine alone. Alpha-lipoic acid further enhances glucose and creatine transport. This is the creatine for those wanting maximum loading and muscle volumization.
