Thanks for the information Paul. What brand/specific creatine do you recommend?

I started creatine about 6 weeks ago. I definitely feel like I have a better edge when it comes to working out and staying focused at work. It's not a night and day difference, but I do feel like it is a 10-20% boost like mentioned in this video.

Hmm just as I’m waking up asking myself should I take that creatine supplement. Sounds good!☀️💪🏼

GREAT work , sir ! Thanks a lot for sharing it with us

I respect your advice Dr.Saladino thank you for sharing this valuable health information for young guys like myself who are looking to better their health. Thank you sir.

Honest nutrition advice. Much appreciated doc.

Hi Paul I’ve just come across your videos and I’m really loving them. I have 5 grown kids who are all about to start their own families and I’ve been sharing your videos with all them. Do you have any videos that maybe give a list of bad ingredients to look for ? It would make it easier to put a list in our phones so while shopping we can just look at the ingredients and compare to your list.

Dear Paul, what do you think about ammonia overload which they say is dangerous? That one should not eat more than 30 grams of protein per meal. Also what do you think of chicken and fish? Love your channel!

I eat almost 3 lbs of beef per day and I still supplement with 5g creatine/day would that 5g put me outside the optimal range?

I'm in my 70's now and have almost always lifted weights, at my peak I would cycle creatine. Creatine would put 10 pounds of body weight on (water in the muscle) and add 30 pounds to my bench press, not just a single lift but sets with that 30 Lb. increase... One thing to note: you can get major flatulence and digestive upset so try this at home first.

Yeah it is great but what is the best value creatinine to purchase

Would this advise be for the morbidly obese or is this better to implement once you have lost body fat?

I get so bad cramps I cant do it. Tried many times, cramps in the throat even which is really unpleasant

Also, stay hydrated

What about supplementing creatine for teenagers or kids? Would really love to hear your take on this.

I dilute my creatine in warm tea (not hot, warm), does anyone know if this affects the performance of the creatine?

My homocysteine level is 4.7. What causes it to be so low?

Glycine is used with arginine and methionine to synthesize creatine. I would much rather drink more bone broth to get glycine so I can produce creatine instead of using a supplement. Bone broth provides a lot more nutrition too IMO

What about the bloating? Every time I take Creatine, I put on 10 pounds of water weight most of it in my belly and face.

Sir, I'm in Atenas CR, where are you?

what brand of creatine is good source

The biggest problem i have with using Creatine is knowing where from and the method that was used in creating the Creatine that i bought . Because there is no point in eating Organic this and that Grass fed Meat , dairy and making sure im following a clean diet and then i pump the body full of a tub of Creatine that i arn't sure that its organic itself . Because after 20 years of knowing about Creatine and dabbling with it here and there i've never heard off or seen a Organic Creatine monohydrate

The difference for me with creatine is instantaneous. In fact I had my best workout in a long time yesterday and come to think of it, I started to take creatine a few days ago because my gf said I'm getting too thin (because she can't stand the fact that I'm eating a carnivore diet so she needs to find some fault with the way I look since eating only meat).

I have hairloss From creatine everytime i take it i think my DHT goes up but iam feeling good From it

The more I research the more I feel like creatine is a one way ticket. Everybody talk about how creatine is amazing, it makes you a superhuman, buff and inteligent, as long as you take it. But nobody talks about what happens when you stop using it? I found for example medical documentations of cases where people were losing vision after depletion of creatine intake due to retinal detachment etc. So what do think about this health gurus?

creatine is a MUST

Anyone else ever experience poor sleep with creatine? I thought it could be something in my diet but after multiple times starting with creatine, my sleep quality goes down and gets better after I stop taking it every time. I’ve even tried only taking it in the morning with only 2g and still affects me, I can hardly find anything online about it and was wondering if anyone has had a similar experience/any input would be appreciated because I do notice a big mental boost from it so I would like to continue using it.

Can you take creatine on carnivore diet?

Where do you get your carbohydrates from?

Ive been taking 5g a day for several months. really can’t see or tell that anything is going on other than some bloating in my stomach during the first 10 days or so. Just depends on the person. lot of placebo effects for many people.

is it okay if it says the creatine monohydrate is vegan?

What brand makes a good product

Isn’t the creatine from the animal based diet enough? 250 grams of grass fed beef 50-70 grams of grass fed liver? Milk ? Kefir?

Which brand do you use ?

What's it made of?? I read they make it from cyanimide. Doesn't sound great to me

I was on creatine for over a month and I kept randomly throwing up at times. Stopped taking creatine and I stopped puking. Idk what caused it but I do want to try taking it again to see if that was the issue

What creatine do you take?

Does anyone here know what type of creatine is best? Monohydrate, creapure or micronized?

What about colostrum?

You should reach out to Novak Djokovic with this. He is an insane tennis player but very stubborn when it comes to avoiding meat. Yet he supplements creatine, which primarily comes from meat.

Thoughts on organic turkey meat ? Also, thoughts on organic chicken breast for meal prep ?

Creatine makes you look jacked but the problem imo is that it makes you drink more fluoride lol I heard boron excretes fluoride tho

I seen you in Danny’s video I was like no way ! Lol

What kind of creatine? Monohydrate? Hydrochloride? Ethyl Ester?

I follow a low carb lifestyle. Lots of fatty red meat, fish, eggs, dairy. I started taking creatine monohydrate about 6 months ago and I notice no improvement at all. Just stopped taking it. I wanted to make a difference. I know there are supposed to be other health benefits from it but I’ll just stick to the meat for it I guess.

Dr. Paul, after I saw your original full post, I researched creatine. What I discovered was it can precipitate heart arrhythmias in some people. When I started carnivore, my heart arrhythmias came back with a vengeance after being under control for almost 2 years with CoQ10 and magnesium. I have since upped my magnesium and that has helped. I would love your thoughts on this. I would also like to see a video on carnivore and heart arrhythmias, and how you fixed them.

Creatine mono vs creatine hcl? Nobody ever seems to talk about the difference

i tried creatine and i didnt enjoy the increase of frequent urination it caused.. very disrupting to normal life

I'm so happy there was no supplement review videos in the 1990s. Back then all research was completed by reading reports, books and the requisite muscle mag. KZfaq videos make old and crusty news look shiny and brand new.

What should we be looking for when buying creatine? Can you give us tips on how to look for the best creatine?

Creatine can cause hair loss but for some people only. It is also dose dependant and duration.

I used it for POTS and water retention it really helps!

Not what we need but what we need to be (optimal)

Ive always stayed away from creatine. It seems to be overly pushed in the fitness industry, it being claimed as the "most researched supplement", but there still being uncertainty in its link to cancers and hairloss. Those 2/3 lbs of water weight you keep working out is not worth that in my opinion. It is also not a cheap supplement, I think the money is better spent on good spring water and high quality whey protein.

Everyone is different do what works for you. All these people on KZfaq “carnivore, vegan, keto, blah blah blah” just do what feels best for you

I started taking creatine, 5 g per day, about 4 years ago. It hasn’t increased my hair loss, but I did increase the reps in my weight lifting by about 2 to 3 reps per set within 2 weeks of starting. I’ve read a lot of the reports on the supplementation and one report studied men over 60 that took a lot more than 5 g per day (I think they took 20 grams or more per day) and after a few years their creatinine levels were still normal, no significant increase in creatinine.

Love creatine for performance at the gym but it makes my hair fall out in a very noticeable way.

What about creatine for kids?

High iron is deadly too Folks get your blood work always Never just do any program without blood work

Studies show that suplementing substances that our body produces itself , specially powders ultra processed, just make the body stops its endougenous production in 70 a 85%. Thats the same to creatine, wich is produced by a enzyme activated by GH. Gh produced during natural physical exercises are no longer able to activate that enzyme anymore, once your are taking the powder. I am not sure if it is true though, but there are studies....

Pasteurized goat cheese from the same brand as the regular raw cheese does cause me problems with digestion. Another thing too is you become like the animal you consume food from, you can notice the body itself does mutate shape during weight gain, I do not know if this is from growth horomones or just due to the high amount of cow products. I would never eat deer or cows, it is like some people and pork.

Never felt great on creatine. Made my hair shed, gained significant water weight, and heart palpitations at times with the last brand i used. That could be down to specific brands, though.

My 14 year old son wants to take creatine supplements but I wonder if he's too young? Replies are welcome :)

Paul bout to get jacked

Been taking it for years.

I taking l glutamine and creatine for years and my hair completely fell,I feel amazing but no more hair

How old are you?

I’ve tried creatine several times (5g per day) and the benefits are very noticeable, but it makes my hair fall out like crazy when I’m on it

Creatine is the cause of me tearing a ligament in my foot and my knee ligaments felt very loose and elastic when I was taking it. You'll hear many anecdotes of acl tears from creatine. I would highly recommend athletes stay far away.

Can creatine cause acne?

Lot of people saying creatine makes you lose hair, what if you're already bald?😮

Also enhances your FPS gameplay.

You should also supplement *_taurine._*

I used to take creatine until I figured out it comes from by-product chemicals in the mining and gas industries. Now I use beef and chicken isolate which has some creatine.

Creatine makes my arms numb and tingly and tight I'm a hyperresponder

You replaced nutrient dense meat for nutrient poor fruit, of cause you'll see benefits from supplimentation, but why not just eat less carbs and more meat so you can get all the mitochondrial benefits and avoid cancer?

Paul! Please try oriental sweet potatoes I know you recently tried white rice and white/yellow potatoes into your diet and you got brain fog as a result. Try oriental sweet potatoes and Ube in small amounts. Centurions in Okinawa swear by it and so do I I would love to see how your body responds

Been taking 10-15 grams of creatine a day for a year and it is a game changer. Just need drink more water and eat more carbs maybe

As I see it, creatine is an essential supplement to take on a daily basis to maintain a healthy lifestyle. However, instead of taking 100% of the recommended amount (5 grams per day) for some time and then stopping, I believe it is better to take 2 grams daily, complemented by a healthy, natural diet. IMHO

I have noticed the Elderly are "Being Ignored when it comes to Creatine" ! ! As we Age are Metabolism slows and All Nutrients Processed Slows ,taking any supplement that can Slow Muscle Wasting is Imperative ......For My Elderly Mother and Myself Creatine in Our TOP TWO , TOP THREE FOR SURE ! FOR BRAIN , BODY (Slowing Aging)

I like and respect dr. Paul but I feel like once you need to start using supplements, your diet is not optimal. I think his macros are off - too much carbs not enough protein.

if you are supplementing then you are eating too much of something and not enough of something else. Its not hard to know which.

If humans only get optimal creatine by eating a couple pounds of meat, isn't that strong evidence that an optimally healthy diet is based on eating exclusively or almost entirely meat? And if eating fruit and juices or other vegetable foods are displacing intake of important animal-based nutrients, isn't that strong evidence you're eating too many plant foods?

Wait .. you own a supplement company! Literally

guaranteed he comes out with a creatine supplement soon

it raises drt levels but it only raises it within normal levels no hair loss lol

creatine keeping you big as hell

Creatine is one of those supplements that actually work

It’s wild that a pound and a half isn’t enough meat to be optimal creatine-wise

A 5 year study is not long enough for me. I agree that taking creatine as a supplement has benefits, but what about the long-term side effects such as kidney damage and eventually kidney failure? I went out and bought some creatine because I watched this video to try it out again, but it doesn't agree with me. I get these chemical tasting burps, and when I muscle tested it, my body said no, so it went in the bin. Trust your own intuition, and don't listen to anyone but your own body because it knows best.

creatine supplementation being overwhelming keeping you big as hell

Idoine makes you smarter . Why aren't advocating seaweed .? It has unbelievably so much higher amonts of this essential nutrient than any 🥩🐔🥓🥚🍼..

Why not just eat more raw meat for creatine?

supplementing keeping you big as hell

Most if not all powdered supplements are not bioavailable. Synthetic or processed forms of creatine, protein or any other nutrient are not going to be digested and more than likely it will just be ejected from your body with every bowel movement, undigested. Essentially, your doing nothing but wasting your money. All your nutritional needs come from whole real foods. If you are deficient any carbs, fats, or proteins, trying to obtain these things from supplementation is only going to lead to more problems long term. Don't put yourself on a restrictive diet in the first place. Without simple and complex carbs as well as dietary fiber, your bodies ability to digest and absorb nutrients is going to be compromised. You are then trying to solve one problem with another problem.

You’re just going bald? It’s not the creatine, maybe it’s just genetics?

I tried it, realised it caused hair loss so I stopped

What I’ve noticed about most of you KZfaq keto / ketovore / carnivore / lion diet video creators IS… Most of you seem / sound SO HYPER !! I’m like CHILL bro ! It puts me off following these diets 😳😅
