Kreatyna + Cordyceps Mushroom Creatine 553g Malina Monohydrat Sport Armour

Mushroom Creatine + Cordyceps Sport Armour - creatine with mushroom extract, 553 g

Mushroom Creatine + Cordyceps is creatine monohydrate combined with Cordyceps sinensis extract and five additional active ingredients in the same serving. The package weighs 553 g, and the manufacturer divides it into 60 servings of 9.2 g, to be mixed with water. One serving contains 5000 mg of creatine monohydrate, of which 4400 mg is pure creatine, and 1000 mg of Cordyceps sinensis extract standardized to 30:1. Alongside these, the table lists beta-alanine, taurine, tyrosine, Aquamin magnesium sourced from seawater, and L-theanine, each in the declared amount. This product differs from regular monohydrate: instead of one item in the composition, you receive a detailed breakdown provided by the manufacturer down to the milligram. The table with these values is printed on the packaging in two languages, Polish and English, so you can compare it with what you read here before opening the can. The flavor is raspberry, as described by both the label and the manufacturer's card. The manufacturer is Sport Armour Sp. z o.o. from Tychy.

Ingredients

Active ingredients in one serving of 9.2 g, according to the manufacturer's table:

• Creatine monohydrate: 5000 mg, including creatine 88%, which is 4400 mg
• Cordyceps sinensis extract 30:1: 1000 mg
• Beta-alanine: 800 mg
• Taurine: 750 mg
• Tyrosine: 500 mg
• AQUAMIN Natural Magnesium from seawater: 500 mg, including magnesium 11%, which is 55 mg (15% RWS)
• L-theanine: 333 mg

The manufacturer's table includes only active ingredients, so the full list with flavoring, sweetening, and anti-caking agents can be found on the packaging label. From the numbers alone, several practical insights can be drawn. Five grams of monohydrate is the serving on which most creatine studies are based, and the 4400 mg of pure creatine comes from the fact that monohydrate binds a water molecule, and that water also has weight. The 30:1 notation for the extract refers to the ratio of raw material to extract: thirty parts of plant material yield one part of extract. Magnesium is accounted for in two ways, which can lead to misunderstandings, as both rows refer to the same ingredient. Five hundred milligrams is the mass of the entire Aquamin raw material, while 55 mg is the contained element, corresponding to 15% of the reference intake value, which is the daily amount used as a benchmark on food labels. The remaining four items, beta-alanine, taurine, tyrosine, and L-theanine, are provided by the manufacturer as single values without such breakdown.

How to use

The manufacturer recommends one serving daily: 9.2 g of powder mixed in an appropriate amount of water. With this dosage, a 553 g package lasts for two months. The manufacturer does not specify the times of day or describe any saturation phase, so the serving remains the same each day.

• Mix it in water
• Stick to one serving per day and do not exceed it
• Close the package after each use
• Check the manufacturer's exact recommendations on the label

For whom

The set is for someone who already knows they want to take creatine and prefers to have the rest of the ingredients in the same package rather than buying four separate ones. Beta-alanine, taurine, tyrosine, and L-theanine are usually found in sports stores as separate products, but here the manufacturer has combined them into one formula with fixed proportions. This is convenient, but also a limitation: you cannot change the proportions, so if you want to control each ingredient separately, separate packages will give you more freedom. Sixty servings is two months at one per day, which is a long enough period to assess whether this set suits you. The raspberry flavor is what the label states, so if you are not fond of fruity powders, it's worth knowing this before purchasing. The powder dissolves in water, so you do not need a shaker or any additional equipment to prepare a serving. The product is a dietary supplement for adults. If you are taking medication regularly or have a chronic illness, consult your doctor or pharmacist before use.

Frequently asked questions

How many servings does the package contain and how long does it last?

The manufacturer divides 553 g into 60 servings of 9.2 g and recommends one serving daily, so the package lasts for two months of daily use. The serving size is directly stated in the active ingredients table. If you use the powder less frequently than daily, the package will last correspondingly longer.

How does this differ from regular creatine monohydrate?

By the number of ingredients in the same serving. Monohydrate itself is one item in the table, while here, alongside 5000 mg of monohydrate, there are six other active ingredients, including 1000 mg of extract from Cordyceps sinensis. You get the same amount of creatine as in a typical serving of monohydrate, so the difference comes from the rest of the set, not the creatine itself.

What does the 30:1 notation mean for the extract?

It is the ratio of raw material to finished extract. Thirty parts of plant material yield one part of extract, so 1000 mg of extract comes from a significantly larger amount of dried mushroom. However, this notation does not indicate the content of specific compounds, as standardization by ratio is different from standardization by a specified ingredient.

Is the product vegan and gluten-free?

The manufacturer does not publish these declarations either on the product card or in the active ingredients table, so check them on the package label along with the full list of ingredients and allergen information. The provided table includes only active ingredients and does not mention flavoring, sweetening agents, or anti-caking agents.

Variants and category

The same line includes a second variant, where instead of Cordyceps sinensis, there is an extract from lion's mane, in a 558 g package and also in raspberry flavor. The rest of the table is the same in both variants. You can find similar products from our offer in the category Supplements.
