3 creatine myths you need to stop believing

Creatine .

Creatine is the king of sports supplements – it can help you build muscle, get stronger, and even boost memory and help those with depression. But, despite its popularity (particularly in sporting circles) and all the studies surrounding the supplement, creatine is still widely feared and misunderstood.

FYI, none of us actually needs to take creatine, you can continue life and make progress in the gym without it. However, if you do want to start taking it, but are simply avoiding it because you’ve heard about some scary creatine side effects (weight gain and hair loss to name a few), you don't need to be.
