Creatine was first discovered in 1832 when Michel Eugène Chevreul isolated it from a water extract of skeletal muscle. Chevreul later named the nitrogenous organic acid after “Kreas” which is the Greek word for meat. While Creatine is primarily synthesized in the liver and kidneys via the amino acids glycine, arginine, and methionine, it is believed that 95% of the Creatine in our bodies is actually stored in our muscles. The remaining 5% is found in our brain, kidneys and liver. Creatine can also be obtained through the foods we eat such as meat and seafood.
Creatine Structure
While many myths and rumors surrounding Creatine have been perpetuated in the media and elsewhere, Creatine is actually one of the most widely researched dietary supplements available to buy. In fact, it is estimated that over 500 research studies have been conducted. Creatine supplements are popular with athletes and bodybuilders due to its well-documented belief to support muscle size and growth. However, early research is also now suggesting that Creatine may be a natural nootropic as well.
In short, Creatine helps supply energy to all cells in our bodies, especially muscle cells. Creatine does this by increasing the creation of ATP. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is considered vital to the process of sending energy directly to our muscles.
More specifically, Creatine plays a vital role in the phosphagen energy system which is responsible for synthesizing ATP in our bodies. While Creatine naturally occurs in our body as both free form Creatine and as Phosphocreatine, it is the Phosphocreatine that is believed to restore ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) in our muscles. When we workout, our stores of ATP are depleted due to the physical exertion. The general concept behind taking a Creatine supplement is that by having a surplus of Creatine in our muscles, it promotes the synthesis of ATP by converting it from ADP (adenosine diphosphate, a by-product of physical exercise). In turn, this promotes both mental and physical energy as well as recovery.
Uses and benefits of Creatine Monohydrate may include:
As a dietary supplement, take 5000mg of Creatine Monohydrate (200 mesh) once daily.
Creatine beginners often ask whether it is better to take Creatine Monohyrate before or after a workout. While Creatine is generally thought of as a preworkout supplement, one recently published paper titled "The Effects of Pre Versus Post Workout Supplementation of Creatine Monohydrate on Body Composition and Strength” suggests that it may be better to take Creatine as a post workout supplement. All 19 participants that took Creatine Monohydrate as a post work out supplement noted improvements in comparison to taking Creatine before their workout. However, the same paper concluded that the benefits of taking Creatine after a work out instead of before were small by comparison.
While more research on this topic is needed, the current consensus remains that the best time to take Creatine isn’t as important as is the overall buildup of it in our bodies in order to enjoy the health benefits of Creatine Monohydrate.
