A dietary supplement that includes a container having a first compartment and a second compartment. The first compartment includes an aqueous medium. The second compartment includes an ingredient that is stable when stored within the second compartment. The container is configured such that a user may selectively cause the first and second compartments to be in communication with each other such that the ingredient of the second compartment is mixed with the aqueous medium of the first compartment. The ingredient, which may be creatine or a derivative thereof, is less stable after being mixed with the aqueous medium of the first compartment. L'invention porte sur un complément alimentaire présenté dans un contenant constitué d'un premier et d'un deuxième compartiment. Le premier compartiment contient un milieu aqueux. Le deuxième compartiment contient un ingrédient qui est stable lorsqu'il y est conservé. Le contenant est conçu de sorte que l'utilisateur peut choisir de faire communiquer le premier et le deuxième compartiment pour que l'ingrédient du deuxième compartiment se mélange avec le milieu aqueux du premier compartiment. L'ingrédient, qui peut être de la créatinine ou un dérivé de celui-ci, est moins stable après avoir été mélangé avec le milieu aqueux du premier compartiment.
