How Creatine Works
Creatine is generally not recommended on an Isagenix Cleanse Day — and here’s why:
🧪 What a Cleanse Day Is:
Isagenix Cleanse Days are intermittent fasting days designed to support cellular detoxification and metabolic reset, using specific Cleanse for Life® products, herbal teas, and light snacks like IsaDelights (if used) or Snack Bites. The goal is to give your body a break from digestion and allow natural detox processes to kick in.
🏋️ What Creatine Does:
Creatine supports muscle performance, energy production, and hydration in muscle cells — typically used around workout days or during muscle-building phases. It pulls water into the muscles and encourages short-term strength gains, which is counter to the rest and reset focus of a Cleanse Day.
🚫 Why Creatine Isn’t Ideal on a Cleanse Day:
- It may interfere with the fasting state by stimulating cellular activity.
- It can cause water retention, which might mask the scale results or detox symptoms.
- It’s not in alignment with the Cleanse Day goal of reducing the body’s metabolic load.
✅ What to Do Instead:
- Stick to Cleanse for Life®, Ionix Supreme, approved Cleanse Day snacks (like Snack Bites or bone broth), herbal teas, and plenty of water.
- Use creatine only on Shake Days or workout days, ideally in the morning or around training for best results.
