1. Creatine is a nitrogenous organic acid produced in the
liver that helps supply energy to cells all over the body
- particularly muscle cells.
It’s made out of three amino acids: L-arginine,
L-glycine, and L-methionine.
Creatine is one of the most studied ergogenic (work
enhancing) substance known. There are hundreds of
studies supporting its benefits for athletes but most
people don’t realize that it is very beneficial for
everyone else as well.

It has been shown to increase LBM or
muscle, muscle performance, athletic
performance & fatigue resistance in both
young and old.
It helps mitigate or minimize post-exercise
inflammatory markers in endurance events
(for example: creatine kinase, lactate dehoydrogenase
prostaglandin E2, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha.)

3. Increased creatine is associated with
important anti-aging effects, including:
1.Protection against cognitive decline.
2. Protection against CHF.
3. Reducing insulin levels while
improving glucose regulation.
4. Shielding against muscle loss
(sarcopenia).

4. 5. Enhancement of mitochondrial function (the cell’s primary energy producer
accounting for 95% of all cellular energy production).
6. Lowers accumulation of lipofuscin (a well known biomarker of aging).
7. Increased lifespan of mice 9% (equivalent to 7 years in human)
.
8. And Enhanced neurobehavioral performance (memory and intellectual
capabilities).

Additionally, via its ability to enhance cellular
energy production it helps maintain adequate levels
of ATP (the body’s primary energy currency), this is
crucial to all kinds of vital functions of both the
cells, organs & tissues, and the body as a whole.

In the brain, it has a neuroprotective
effect as a result of increased energy
and reduced lipofuscin accumulation.
Creatine is believed to be helpful in preventing and
combating the following brain & neurological diseases:
Alzheimer’s Dz, Excitotoxicity, Parkinson’s Dz,
Huntington’s Dz, ALS, and Strokes.

7. Also brain-related:
Increased Creatine is associated with reduced mental
fatigue & it Increases the brain’s oxygen utilization
while increasing memory & cognitive function.
Cardiovascular benefits: Increases Heart ATP levels,
Reduces markers of Heart muscle exhaustion,
Increases performance & Reduces muscle waste
products in CHF patients.

8. Metabolic benefits include:
1. Increased glucose utilization,
2. Reduced BS in healthy patients,
3. Increased glucose transporter complex GLUT-4 (that
shuttles BS from blood into cells & on into the
mitochondria),
4. Reduces BS and insulin levels, l/t significant
improvements of oral glucose tolerance tests, with
exercise in DM – shown to reduce BS, Glucose Tolerance
Test, & hemoglobin A1c levels.

Creatine only occurs in meat and fish.
Now that you realize it has so many
benefits beyond bodybuilding, is there
any wonder that we included it in our
Paleo Proteins Perfected Formulas?
