Frequently asked questions about creatine, whey and ordering

At five grams a day, every day, rest days included. One level scoop in water or milk. You do not need to load and you do not need to cycle off. After about four weeks your muscles are saturated and you will know whether it does anything for you.

Creatine pulls water into your muscle cells, not under your skin. Some people see one or two kilos more on the scale in the first weeks. That is water in the muscle, not fat.

In healthy people, creatine at normal doses has been studied extensively and no evidence of kidney damage has been found. If you take medication, have a kidney condition, are pregnant or are breastfeeding, talk to your doctor first. We are not doctors and we do not give medical advice.

We are not open yet. As soon as the first batch arrives, we open the shop. Want to know first? Send a short email to info@444nutrition.com.

With iDEAL, and from Belgium with Bancontact. Payment runs through Mollie, so your bank or card details never reach us. We only see whether the payment went through.

Yes. You have the statutory fourteen day right of withdrawal, and on top of that we give thirty days money back if you are not happy. One exception the law imposes on us: a tub of powder or capsules with a broken seal cannot come back to us for hygiene reasons. So you do not have to send it back, and you still get your money.

Only the amount. 500 grams is one hundred servings, a kilo is two hundred. Per gram the kilo is about twenty percent cheaper. If you do not know yet whether creatine suits you, start with 500 grams.

Isolate is filtered further. It has more protein per scoop and less lactose and fat. That makes it more expensive, but also easier to tolerate if you are sensitive to milk sugar.

No. Our powders are unflavoured, unsweetened and uncoloured. Creatine dissolves almost tastelessly. Whey isolate tastes faintly of milk. If you want flavour, mix it with milk, a banana or some cocoa.

Every batch goes to an independent laboratory. As soon as the first result is in we publish it on the product page, under Laboratory analysis, with the batch number, so you can check what is in your tub.

No, you can check out as a guest. An account is useful if you want to look up your orders or avoid typing your address every time. You can create one during checkout or through My account.

Email info@444nutrition.com with your order number and, if you can, a photo. You get a reply within one working day. We sort it out with the carrier, you do not have to.

That is beta-alanine, an ingredient in almost every pre-workout. From roughly 800 milligrams in one go it stimulates the nerve endings just under your skin. You usually feel it in your face, your neck, your hands and sometimes your stomach. It is called paraesthesia, it starts after about fifteen minutes and is gone within the hour. It is harmless and it says nothing about how well the product works. If you would rather not have it, take a smaller dose or spread it over the day.
