After listening to this video from Professor Ben Bikman, I find it terribly interesting that research correlates the amount of muscle mass with long term health and longevity. Even more surprising though, is that muscle mass has a higher correlation than aerobic capacity.
Due to this, one of my new goals is to bulk up.
To help get me started, I’ve been using Momentous’ Creatine Chews.
Eating Them
I’m in my late twenties, and as we all age it becomes harder to increase and maintain muscle. As a fairly skinny dude, this has always been difficult for me.
Because of this, I need to start sooner than later AND I need some help to bulk. Something creatine is great at!
The Momentous’ Creatine Chews were strange for the first week with how chalky their consistency is, but it doesn’t take long to get used to them. I tried Bucked Up’s Creatine Gummies as a comparison, and those have an even weirder consistency.
(They’re like a sandy gummy bear cube that was left in a hot car so there’s not any gummy-like elasticity.)
Either way, these lemon lime Momentous tablets taste better too.
It’s a basic citrus taste but toned down compared to LMNT, so it’s a lot easier to stomach and add to your daily routine.
My Experience
Look, there’s only so much I can say about Momentous Creatine Chews. I’m not a health specialist with fancy degrees, education, etc. I’ve heard good things about taking creatine as recent studies highlight their benefits for recovering, building muscle, and assisting brain health.
With that being said, some prefer to hide their creatine with their morning protein shake, while others prefer chews like these.
For me, I’m good with either. BUT these chews offer an extra level of convenience.
For example, I had to travel for work a couple weeks ago and couldn’t find a place to buy a protein shake with creatine. Thankfully, I took a few of the Momentous chews in a baggie, so I was still able to have creatine post workout.
The Recap
Products like supplements and protein powder are a luxury item in my opinion. They’re a “nice to have”, not a “need to have”.
If you’re someone that budgets and prioritizes creatine in your daily routine, then you might really like the simplicity that the Momentous Creatine Chews offer. Whether it’s the flexibility you have when traveling, or the super easy addition to a morning routine, then these will do the trick.
Plus, Momentous makes them in three different flavors, so there’s a good chance you’ll find one or two you enjoy.
