Alpha Creatine from Dark Labs is an upper tier product in the creatine category that provides more than just your basic single ingredient. On top of the 5 grams of creatine mono, you get the novel ingredient Peptistrong at its researched dose of 2.4 grams, as well as a nice dose of betaine, ornithine and elevatp to help boost exercise output and performance. I ran this product for 2 months back to back and noticed some great improvements in recovery not just post exercise but also during my workouts. I definitely noticed a boost in my work output and saw an increase in strength and performance based on my logbook. This was my first Dark Labs product and I was very impressed with the look of the label, the quality of the powder and of course the taste! The lemonade was very refreshing and the tub was filled to the top. I took this product a couple different ways, first I tried postworkout, then preworkout with my stimulant based pre and then finally with my intra-workout carbs. In all honesty, I really enjoyed sipping on this during my workouts. The flavor is great and refreshing and I feel like it really helped to keep my energy levels up and again, gave a great boost in performance. As someone who can tend to get an upset stomach from creatine, I am always weary of products like this, but I am very glad I tried this and I noticed zero discomfort when taking Alpha Creatine. As far as price goes, again this is more of an upper tier product, versus a must have, but for the inclusion of a full dose of PeptiStrong and a full months supply, I feel this priced extremely fair. Overall, if you are in the market for a new creatine and have a few extra bucks to spare, you cannot go wrong here. This is something I will take again and wish to keep in my monthly stack. Highest of recommends!
