WHAT IS CREATINE?

Creatine is a naturally occurring compound found in small amounts in certain foods such as red meat and fish. It is also available as a dietary supplement, often used by athletes and bodybuilders to increase muscle strength and improve exercise performance. Creatine works by increasing the availability of a molecule called adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is the primary energy source for muscle contraction. It is considered safe for most people to use, but there are some potential side effects, and it should be used with caution in certain populations.
