Creatine helps supply energy to cells throughout the body, particularly muscle cells. It is important to take it in monohydrate form.
Creatine is stored as phosphocreatine in the body and helps to regenerate energy in our cells in the form of Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP). As we age, our muscles become weaker. This process is called sarcopenia. To delay this process, we should look to maximise muscle strength in our youth, maintain muscle strength in middle age and minimise muscle loss in older life. Supplementing with creatine can help this process.
Some evidence suggests that Creatine might prevent skin ageing, treat muscle diseases, help people with multiple sclerosis (MS) to exercise and enhance cognitive ability.
