Anyone in here have any stories about creatine?

What kind of stories are you looking for and "stories" are not objective or very useful. Creatine has all sorts of potential health benefits, most people are totally unaware of. It's far more than a bodybuilding supp.

I put together a report on creatine that covers virtually everything one needs to know about this supp. It’s written for both end users and more science minded types, clinicians, docs, etc. that want science based info on creatine. Below is the table of contents for your perusal. The report is a Free download can be found at www.creatine-report.com.

Table of contents.

Intro to creatine

Section one:

What is creatine?

How does creatine work?

Section Two:

Creatine and sarcopenia

Effects of creatine on older adults

The secret of aging: cellular energetics

Anti-inflammatory effects of creatine

Creatine effects on the function of healthy and damaged brains.

Creatine and the healthy brain

Creatine and neuromuscular diseases

More brain related research: Creatine and neurological protection

Creatine and heart function

References for Section Two:

Section Three

Effects on Growth Hormone (GH)

Creatine may reduce homocysteine levels

Creatine and chronic fatigue/fibromyalgia

Creatine safety issues: fact or fiction?

References for Section Three:

Section Four

Recommended doses

To load or not to load

Creatine and athletics

The creatine and sugar story

Pre made creatine/sugar mixtures

Purity issues

So who sells Creapure brand creatine?

Conclusion

Either you're making goofy joke posts or you're clueless. Your friend didn't gain 70lbs of LBM from creatine, not did he die from creatine. He was either taking various drugs he didn't tell you about, was taking what he thought was creatine and was not, or someone was adding something to his creatine. None of these effects came from creatine and it's these types of stupid posts that start rumors. Creatine has been  found to help heart function BTW, and other benefits. See report posted.

creatine is the most studied supplement in history.  If it messed people up, chances are we would have heard about it it by now.

Ummmm........how stupid are you are you that you wouldn't notice this was a joke thread? And if you really are that stupid why would I read any kind of report you wrote?

I did notice. What part of "Either you're making goofy joke posts" didn't you understand? However, I have seen posts just like these that were not jokes. It's amazing how much stupid crap people will write about the "dangers of creatine" it's impossible to know what's a joke and what's not some times, thus I tend to assume it's not a joke until proven otherwise.

Hey Will, what do you think about creatine useage in bodybuilders who are also taking steroids? Waste of time? Or do the steroids somehow enhance the creatine ?  Or maybe it is about the same as if you were natural?

As no studies exist combining them, it's an unknown. My hunch is there would be an additive effect, but probably a waste of $$$.  I would probably recommend the creatine between cycles as a possible help with retaining LBM, but again, that's a WAG on my part as data is lacking there too. Considering how cheap CM is, and the fact it has some potential health benefits, no reasons not to per se either.

Yeah, I like to bust Will's nutz sometimes, but he's got a lot of knowledge and he's always willing to answer questions. 

Maybe I'll give him a break in the future.  Probably not, but maybe.  ;)
