Active Ingredients
Creatine
Creatine is an organic compound which has been shown by research to significantly improve power output during exercise.
Many forms of creatine exist, with the most well-studied being monohydrate (1). The HCl and Magnapower™ versions included in this formula may have extra effects, but these have no yet been proven by research.
The effective dose of creatine monohydrate is about 5g daily.
Betaine
Betaine is also a naturally-occurring compound which has been found to improve power output.
Research shows that it might also improve body composition (2).
An effective dose is around 2.5g.
Taurine
Taurine is an amino acid which has anti-fatigue properties.
It’s been shown to improve water and nutrient uptake into muscle cells (3).
Ornithine
Ornithine is another fatigue-reducing amino acid (4).
The effective dose is about 2g.
Who Takes It?
Athletes wanting a complete creatine product to help them gain strength and size will enjoy using Tango.
How to Take
Mix 1 scoop (13.4g) with 250mL water, and consume after working out.
Side Effects
Creatine may upset the stomach if taken with insufficient food or water.
You may experience a gain in water weight while using Tango.
Pros
- Clinically effective doses of creatine and betaine
- Extra forms of creatine added

Conclusion
Tango is an excellent creatine product, which includes much more than just a typical dose of creatine per serving.
It includes a clinically effective dose of betaine, some fatigue-reducing products, and a couple of extra forms of creatine, just in case.
You can expect increases in both size and strength while using Tango.
