About Creatine

Creatine in the human body

Creatine naturally occurs in the body and is present in every human cell.
Due to its essential role in storing and transporting energy in EVERY cell (muscles, brain, heart and immune cells), creatine is vital for humans. Half of the required creatine is produced by the body itself; the rest has to be obtained from food (animal-based products or supplements).

Facts

Positive effects on muscle strength

Studies have shown that taking creatine in conjunction with moderate strength training is beneficial for muscle maintenance in old age. This was confirmed by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) with a so-called Health Claim. This states that "the daily intake of 3 g creatine increases physical performance during high-speed strength training in the context of short-term intense physical activity."

 

Most importantly, there is evidence that creatine supplementation combined with strength training improves muscle mass maintenance and muscle strength in adults over 55 years of age.
