Core-Energy is NextGen's flagship performance sachet. Each 5g sachet delivers 3g of micronized Creatine Monohydrate plus 8 essential vitamins at 100% of your daily RDA — in a single, flavoured, ready-to-mix drink.

It was formulated around one insight: creatine alone doesn't work at its best without the vitamins that power the biochemical pathways it depends on. So we put both in one sachet. One tear. Zero thinking.

Creatine's ability to regenerate ATP (your muscles' energy currency) depends on several vitamin-driven pathways:

• Vitamin D3 upregulates creatine transporters in fast-twitch muscle fibres — more creatine gets in.
• B6, B9 (Folate), B12 drive methylation pathways that form and recycle phosphocreatine, and together lower homocysteine — an amino acid that raises cardiovascular risk when elevated, a common issue in India.
• Vitamins C & E reduce oxidative stress generated during intense training, limiting muscle soreness (DOMS).
• Vitamin D & K work as a pair — D triggers osteocalcin synthesis and K activates it, directing calcium into bone rather than soft tissue. Essential for anyone training under load.
• Vitamin A supports immune function and the growth and repair of muscle cells — keeping you consistent and recovered.

Without these cofactors, you're leaving gains on the table. Core-Energy closes that gap.

Each sachet contains — at exactly 100% of the ICMR-NIN 2020 RDA for Indian adults:

• Vitamin A — 1 mg
• Vitamin D3 — 600 IU
• Vitamin E — 10 mg (TE)
• Vitamin K — 55 mcg
• Vitamin B6 — 2.75 mg
• Folate (B9) — 300 mcg
• Vitamin B12 — 2.2 mcg
• Vitamin C — 80 mg

Because more isn't always better — it's often just more expensive urine. The RDA is the amount shown by research to be sufficient for normal physiological function in healthy adults. Going far above it for fat-soluble vitamins (like D3) can be harmful.

We design for daily use, not occasional megadosing. One sachet every day gets you to baseline — consistently. That's what changes the body over time.

No. The loading phase (20g/day for 5–7 days) was developed for research purposes to saturate muscle creatine stores quickly. The long-term outcome is identical whether you load or not — loading just speeds up saturation by about 4 weeks.

With Core-Energy's 3g daily dose, your muscles will be fully saturated within 4–6 weeks. Stay consistent. The ritual is what makes it work.

Any time of day that you can be consistent about. Research shows timing matters far less than daily consistency. That said, popular options:

• Pre-workout — mix with water 20–30 mins before training
• Morning — start the day right, with your breakfast
• Post-workout — muscles are primed to absorb creatine after training

Pick one time. Do it daily. That's the ritual.

Absolutely. Creatine is one of the most extensively researched supplements for both men and women. Women tend to have lower baseline creatine stores than men, which means the relative benefit can be even larger. The vitamins in Core-Energy address deficiencies that affect women disproportionately — especially Folate (B9), B12, and D3.

No sugar. No artificial sweeteners. Core-Energy uses natural mango orange flavouring. It's designed to taste good without the junk.

Tear, pour, stir. Mix one sachet into 200–250ml of cold water. Stir or shake for about 10 seconds. The micronized creatine dissolves easily — no clumping, no gritty residue.

Yes. Core-Energy is designed to pair cleanly with whey protein, pre-workout, and omega-3s. Since it already covers your vitamin RDAs, you don't need a separate multivitamin on the days you take it. Check your pre-workout for pre-existing creatine content if you want to avoid doubling up.

Yes. Creatine Monohydrate is one of the most studied sports nutrition ingredients in the world — over 1,000 studies spanning 30+ years consistently show it is safe for healthy adults used daily over the long term. The vitamins are at 100% RDA, not megadoses, making them safe for daily consumption as part of a balanced diet.
