What is Creatine and how does it work

Creatine Information

Creatine is a natural substance found in the body. A 160 pound person would have about 120 grams of creatine stored naturally in their body. Creatine plays a very powerful role in energy metabolism. Creatine is a nutrient that our bodies produce naturally from the amino acids glycine, arginine and methionine.

The whole idea behind taking creatine as supplement is that if you workout you burn up a lot of creatine. If you take a creatine supplement such as creatine monohydrate you will have more energy - because the energy cycle can go on for a longer time. Your muscle's creatine supply is not limitless. The average human has between 3.5 and 4 grams of creatine per kilogram of muscle. Once you use up the creatine in your muscle you have to rest your muscles and wait before you can exercise again. Human muscle can store up to 5 grams of creatine per kilogram. So, by taking a creatine supplement you can raise your creatine levels from 3.5 to 5 grams of creatine per kilogram, this will extend the period you can exercise before having to take a rest and fatigue build up.

Creatine will not help you lose fat directly. However, Creatine will help you tone and firm, and assist you in pushing your self to your limits. In the long run, it's the building of muscle that causes an increase in your metabolism and helps burn calories and fat.

When creatine supplements are used by athletes they help increase muscle size and strength, enhance the amount of energy released during exercise and speed muscle recovery following exertion. Creatine therefore makes for more efficient and effective workouts. Excess creatine is converted into the waste product creatinine and excreted from the body.

If your trying to lose fat and build muscle creatine supplements are a great aid. Creatine monohydrate is the most popular form of creatine, but there are many creatine products designed for specific uses. On this site you will find information on the various creatine products availalbe.

So, what is creatine. Creatine is an amino acid derivative that's formed in the liver, kidneys and pancreas from amino acids. Red meat is one of nature's best sources of creatine, but in order to get four grams of creatine from solid food, you would have to eat nearly five pounds of beef. One heaped teaspoon provides about as much creatine as 1 kilogram of fresh uncooked meat. Creatine supplements therefore provide you with the extra creatine that will enhance workouts and extend the period you can exercise for enhanced muscle growth.

Is is thought by some that the phosphate variety is not easily absorbed by the body and will therefore not be as effective. The citrate variety seemed to be catching on, but research is sketchy. Nearly all the positive clinical studies that have been done on creatine have utilized the monohydrate form, it would therefore seem at this time that Creatine Monohydrate would be the form to use.

There is a lot of cheap, generic creatine monohydrate on the market (especially on the web), but it may be of significantly lower quality than the reputable brand name versions. Supplement companies and distributors in the U.S. currently get their raw creatine from two primary sources: China and Germany. The creatine that comes in from China is almost always less expensive, but it’s also much more likely to be impure. Typically, it will be cut with the complex carb maltodextrin. This is the dirt cheap “creatine” that many wholesalers offer. No wonder some people don’t see any results. Reputable creatine suppliers prefer the German version, which is a bit more expensive but tests out at a significantly higher level of quality. With creatine you really do get what you pay for. The creatine available from this site is from reputable creatine suppliers, and is therefore of a high quality.
