Creatine monohydrate is a natural substance which is found in small amounts in foods like meat and fish.
Our body also makes some amount of creatine monohydrate. It gives energy to your muscles, especially during high-intensity workouts. That is why people who want to build muscles, improve strength and recover better post exercise take these supplements.
But if you already have any
kidney or
liver problems, you should avoid taking creatine. Make sure to drink enough water while using creatine and avoid overdosing. Also, look for a good quality product with no harmful additives.
Before starting any supplement, it is always better to consult a registered dietitian or sports nutritionist, especially if you are new to it. They can help you decide if you really need it and how to take it correctly, based on your goals and lifestyle.
Supplements work best when they are combined with a proper diet, exercise, and rest.
