Why Does Creatine Act Magnetic?
If your Creatine powder clings to scoops or surfaces, this is due to static electricity created during the micronization process. This process breaks down creatine into ultra-fine particles, enhancing solubility and absorption in the body. However, finer particles are more susceptible to static buildup, which can cause the powder to temporarily stick to plastic scoops or containers. In some cases, the particles may even pop or jump due to the static charge. Despite its appearance, your Creatine is not actually magnetic and remains completely safe for consumption. This phenomenon is purely due to static charge and has no correlation to metals or impurities in the product.

Why Does Creatine Crystallize or Clump?
- Absorbs Moisture – Creatine is hygroscopic, meaning it pulls moisture from the air, leading to clumping or a crystallized look.
- Temperature Changes – Shifts in temperature can cause the powder to slightly change texture.
-
Settling of Particles – Over time, the powder can become more compact, making it look different.
Does This Affect Quality?
No! These changes are normal and do not impact the effectiveness, safety, or purity of your Creatine. The micronization process improves mixability and absorption, ensuring that you get the most out of your supplement, even if the texture appears slightly different over time.
How to Store Creatine Properly:
✔️ Keep the lid tightly closed to prevent moisture exposure.
✔️ Store in a cool, dry place away from humidity.
✔️ Use a dry scoop to prevent clumping.
✔️ Shake the container if the powder settles.
Your Creatine is still high-quality and effective, even if it appears magnetic or clumpy. These physical changes are purely due to micronization and moisture exposure and do not compromise the supplement’s benefits. If you have any concerns, feel free to reach out to our Customer Support Team
