What health agencies say

An opinion says what the agency recommends; it is not a rule binding on the product.

ANSES reiterates a maximum dose of 3 000 mg of creatine per day for supplements and fortified foods, taking into account the combined intake from all sources. It recommends informing consumers about this combined intake. It advises against creatine for people with kidney disease or diabetes, or who have had a kidney removed.

ANSES, opinion of 24 December 2024, 2023-SA-0216.

Maximum dose in France

Créatine: La quantité présente dans la portion journalière recommandée ne doit pas dépasser 3 000 mg. This limit concerns the quantity of créatine: the mass of Créatine monohydrate declared on the label is not directly comparable.
