I've been taking it daily for about two months. I've definitely noticed improved mental sharpness in the past few weeks.

Is the solubility of creatine any indication of its purity and quality?

I got scared off of it because I felt and looked uncomfortably bloated. I took only the 5g per day. I'm going to start taking it again for muscle and brain health. Hopefully I won't develop the same symptoms this time around.

A tantalizing preliminary feasability study. FWIW, I wouldn't take any supplements, all of which are unregulaed by the FDA, if they aren't independently verified as to purity and potency by reputable organizations such as USP and NF.

I thought I knew most of what research found out about creatine. Turns out more and more benefits see the light of the day.

I have mine with greek yoghurt and whey protein every day as a afternoon snack - keeps me full and allows me to have a smaller dinner.

Thank you for sharing Heather.
