Creatine malate, also sold as tri-creatine malate or TCM, is a creatine compound in which creatine is joined to malic acid. It is sold as powder or as capsules. Find the amount per serving in the nutrition table and check whether it refers to the compound or to the creatine in it, because the two figures differ. Set the serving size and the number of servings in the pack beside the price before comparing it with other forms of creatine.
Frequently asked questions
What do TCM and tri-creatine malate mean in a product name?
TCM is short for tri-creatine malate, a compound named for three creatine units joined to one malic acid unit. Product names use either the abbreviation or the full name. The ingredient list of the exact product names the compound, and the nutrition table states the amount per serving.
Does a creatine malate label state the compound or the creatine?
The label may give either, so read what the figure refers to. A figure for the compound includes the malic acid and is higher than the creatine in it, while a figure for creatine is the creatine itself. To compare with a monohydrate product, use the same kind of figure for both.
What is the difference between creatine malate powder and capsules?
A powder is measured with a scoop and mixed into a drink, and one tub holds many servings. Capsules are counted, and the label states how many make a serving. Both forms state the amount per serving and the pack size on the label; set those against the price.
