Other Information
Creatine is found naturally in muscle cells. It is essential for energy production and important for endurance sports and for those training for power and strength. Because of its role in the production of ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate), creatine is vital to help fuel the short energy bursts needed for weight lifting, sprinting etc. Depletion of creatine within the muscle can lead to reduced muscle power and built up of lactic acid, resulting in the rapid onset of fatigue. There is scientific evidence that taking creatine supplements can increase athletic performance in high-intensity anaerobic repetitive cycling sprints. Creatine increases the activity of myogenic cells that make hypertrophy (increase in size of cells) of adult skeletal muscle possible . Creatine use is not considered doping and is not banned by sport-governing bodies. Experts say that it has a role in maintaining energy levels to the brain. Studies at the University of Sydney and Macquarie University, both in Australia, found that Creatine use had a definite effect on the ability of subjects to remember long sequences of numbers long numbers improved from a number length of approximately seven digits, to an average of 8.5. " Creatine supplementation gave a significant measurable boost to brain power." (2003) The head of the research team said "Creatine supplementation may be of use to those requiring boosted mental performance in the short term - for example university students."
