And that's been shown in in vitro studies there.

So there is some cellular data, which is a bit surprising when it comes to the skeleton, not just imaging.

But if I was to take eight grams, would I tell my parents to take eight grams and not work out?

If I did, I don't think they'd expect anything on the bone.

The bone is really stubborn.

It's just like our brain and creatine.

It's really, really stubborn.

I think the main force is the driver of weight training.

So if you're in line for a bisphosphonate, there's no way that creatine or weight training will come close.

So a drug effect will always be superior.

The effects we're seeing even from a significant perspective with creatine are so small, we don't even get to a clinical perspective.

But let's talk about weight training.

I 100% agree.

If I had to choose one for bone, it's weight training or plyometrics or anything that you feel to the body.

And then consider creatine in your treatment program.

Creatine would never replace a pharmaceutical intervention from a bone perspective.

And the effects we're seeing are so small or even over two years.

At best, it's preserving.

Now, this begs the question, maybe the adults we chose were too healthy.

None had diagnosed osteoporosis or osteopenia or frailty.
