— a substance whose molecule combines a molecule of creatine and a molecule of malic acid (malate). It has two varieties — dicreatine malate and tricreatine malate, according to the number of creatine molecules per malate molecule. Theoretically, due to its good water solubility, this form is more effective, better absorbed and causes fewer side effects than traditional creatine monohydrate (see the relevant paragraph); in addition, malic acid is involved in the energy metabolism of muscles and can increase endurance. There is still no unequivocal scientific evidence of these features, but it is quite possible to say that creatine malate is not inferior to monohydrate in terms of effectiveness.
