**Creatine Monohydrate** at 750mg per capsule — you'll need 4 to 7 capsules daily to reach the 3–5g maintenance dose backed by hundreds of trials for strength, power, and high-intensity training. That's a lot of capsules, but the 240-count bottle gives you roughly 5–8 weeks of supply at the effective dose.

Creatine also has emerging research for cognitive performance and brain energy metabolism, though most cognitive studies use higher intakes around 10g/day. At the standard 3–5g range, you're well-covered for training benefits but would need to double the dose for brain-specific goals.

The main tradeoff is pill burden. Taking 4–7 capsules daily to hit the clinical dose is doable but less convenient than a powder format, which delivers a full 5g serving in one scoop. If convenience matters to you, this format adds friction at the same dose.
