Editorial Team & Review Process
Creatine dosage is health information, so who wrote it and how it was checked matters as much as the number itself. This page states both plainly.
Who writes this site
CreatineCalc Research Team
Articles and calculator documentation are researched and written in-house, then cross-checked against the primary sports-nutrition literature before publication. Content is published under a team byline rather than individual names.
27 of 27 published articles are additionally verified line-by-line against the ISSN Position Stand on Creatine Supplementation, and say so in their header.
How an article is produced
-
A topic is chosen from questions readers actually ask, not from keyword volume alone.
-
Primary sources are gathered first — position stands, meta-analyses and controlled trials.
-
The draft is written from those sources, with every dosage figure tied to a specific citation.
-
Claims are re-checked against the source material, and anything that cannot be supported is cut.
-
The reference list and review note are published with the article so readers can verify it.
Our editorial principles
Every dosage figure traces to a citation
No number appears on this site without a published source behind it. The calculator formulas come from the ISSN position stand; article claims carry their own reference lists.
Sources are primary, not secondary
Claims are checked against the original study or position stand rather than another article summarising it. Where the research is contested, the article says so instead of picking a side.
Corrections are made, not buried
An error gets fixed as soon as it is confirmed, and the page shows its updated date. Accuracy takes priority over preserving what was already published.
No commercial influence
The site is funded by display advertising, served by a third party with no connection to what gets published. Nothing is earned from supplement sales, affiliate links or sponsorship, and no brand has ever reviewed, funded or approved anything here. If an advert beside an article promotes a product, that is not an endorsement — it is not chosen by us and carries no influence over the dosage figures or the research cited.
Medical review status
This content is not reviewed by a licensed clinician.
Articles are researched against peer-reviewed literature, but no registered dietitian or physician currently signs off on them. Nothing here is medical advice, and it is not a substitute for consulting a qualified professional about your own circumstances — particularly with pre-existing kidney conditions, during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or for anyone under 18.
Report a correction
If a figure, citation or claim on this site looks wrong, tell us and it gets checked. Point to the page and, where possible, the source you believe is correct.
