Creatine monohydrate is creatine monohydrate. The thing with creapure is just as the name suggests...purity.

Many cheap creatines can have contaminants because of cheap and shoddy manufacturing processes.

One possible contaminant is dicyandiamide. That could possible by very dangerous.

Another common one is dihydrotriazine. I'm not sure that the effects of that long term are known but triazines can be toxic I think.

Creatinine is another. That's just the break down product of creatine. All those "creatine serums" were pretty much all creatinine because creatine isn't stable for long periods in a liquid.

There is also the potential for heavy metal contaminants and basically anything else you can think of that might occur because of cross contaminations. Think, for instance about the practice of reusing containers that contained possible dangerous pharmaceuticals..stuff like that.

I'm not sure but I think most of the really good creatine makers are in Germany and there may be one or two in the US. Most cheap creatine monos come from China and that is bad news.

It does not have to be creapure to be good necessarily but that is the only "seal" that you can count on right off the bat without having to contact the company and ask them where it comes from.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
