Is Optimum Nutrition Micronized Creatine Powder tested for banned substances?

Yes. It carries Informed Choice. That means batches are tested on their own. They are tested by LGC Sport Science. They are checked against the WADA banned-drug list. The current cert can be looked up on the Informed Choice database.

What does 'micronised' mean in a creatine powder?

It means the creatine monohydrate is milled into smaller bits. These mix more easily in water. They also feel less gritty. The active part does not change. It is still creatine monohydrate.

How much creatine should I take per day?

A normal daily dose is 3 to 5 g. That is creatine monohydrate. Some users load up at first. They take 20 g a day. They split it into four doses for 5 to 7 days. That fills muscle stores faster. Then they drop to 3 to 5 g a day. Check current advice from an expert if you are not sure.
