CREATINE - Benefits & Myths
Stick with Creatine Monohydrate for the best benefits as you decide to use it.
1. WHAT ABOUT BLOATING? If you "load" creatine (take high doses to saturate your cells quickly), you may retain some water, since H2O is part of the creatine's structure. Plus, the stuff boosts carb storage, so every 2 grams of sugar stored come with 2 grams of water. If you want size this is fine. But if you play sports with quick movements, skip the loading phase. Rapid weight gain can strain your joints.
2. WILL IT KILL MY KIDNEYS? As long as you stick to the suggested dose, your waste-filtration system is safe. Kidney malfunction raises creatinine (a by-product of creatine), but high creatinine doesn't damage kidneys. However, if you have kidney disease talk to your doctor, and also if you are unsure about taking creatine, consult with your doctor as well, and best luck on your workout.
