Introduction
Although creatine offers an array of benefits, most people think of it simply as a supplement that bodybuilders and other athletes use to gain strength and muscle mass. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Why the mainstream media has ignored this fact in favor of outlandish poorly substantiated scare stories is unclear, but there has always been a double standard in the mainstream media when it comes to nutritional supplements.
This report will cover much of what creatine has to offer as a safe and inexpensive supplement with an exceptionally wide range of potential uses. Though I will go into depth about each, creatine may positively effect:
* sarcopenia (a loss of muscle mass due to aging)
Improve in brain function of healthy and damaged brains
modulate inflammation.
diseases effecting the neuro muscular system, such as muscular dystrophy (MD)
wasting syndromes/muscle atrophy
* fatigue
gyrate atrophy
Parkinson's disease
* Huntington's disease and other mitochondrial cytopathies
