Creatine is a non-pharmacological supplement widely recognized for its strong and extensive evidence base in enhancing the effects of resistance training, particularly strength gains and, to a lesser extent, size gains. It works by saturating muscle creatine stores, leading to increased intramuscular water and intracellular hydration during an initial loading phase. Beyond athletic performance and muscle hypertrophy, creatine has been shown to offer benefits for joint health, improved glucose control, and enhanced cognitive functions like memory, especially in individuals with cognitive decline, by increasing creatine levels in the brain and creating a pro-energy environment.
The second one is creatine this miracle thing that everybody should be taking. There's almost nothing creatine can't do. Wow, some statement.
""The speaker, Alan Aragon, discusses creatine in detail, referring to it as 'King Creatine' and highlighting its numerous benefits, scientific backing, and lack of significant side effects. He explains its mechanism, loading phases, and its impact on strength, muscle size, joint health, glucose control, and cognition. This extensive discussion and strong recommendation elevate it beyond a generic mention to a specific, highly endorsed supplement product."
