Whether you’re taking a supplement or not, creatine is already functioning inside you, doing its very important job.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘁?

It’s an amino acid found naturally in the meat and fish you consume and, according to the Mayo Clinic, your liver and kidneys crank it out as well. The creatine is mainly stored as creatine phosphate in your muscles, ready for use in energy production.

Without boring you with science , just know that adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is made up of a nucleotide bonded to three phosphate groups.

➪➪ Creatine enables the release of energy from stored ATP and is converted to creatinine.

Your body uses creatine for proper functioning every day, but supplementation can have its benefits outside of the ordinary. According to the Mayo Clinic, “oral consumption of creatine increases the creatine in muscle, which serves to regenerate adenosine triphosphate (ATP).” It is beneficial for short duration, intense, repetitive exercise.

With creatine supplementation, you can enhance your ATP regeneration and thus delay onset of muscle fatigue and work more intensely for a longer period of time.
