Wait till the evening to take one and a half grams.

That really decreases the chance of water retention.

But if you're eating red meat or seafood, you're getting a little bit amount.

For the vegans watching, keep in mind you're not getting any, and that's why supplementation, third-party tested, they are vegan-based, could be considered.

Yeah, we've done some really fascinating studies with vegans and vegetarians, and they respond exceptionally well because we're doubling the amount of creatine, which is the high-energy compound in our muscle.

So those individuals can do more repetitions, higher volume, quicker recovery.

So it really has favorable effects for male and female, vegans and vegetarians.

And again, those emphasizing a plant-based diet, with everything going on in the world nowadays, a lot of people are looking to more plant-based diets for health reasons or whichever.

And then they might need to consider a supplement.

So usually we're not in the market of talking about supplements.

But this one is the one that seems to come to mind where it might be difficult to get the amount needed in your diet.

from financial costs, ethical treatment of animals, whatever your own habitual preference is, and if they're third-party tested, it's the safest, most effective ergogenic aid out there right now.

The safety profile is exceptional, especially at the dosages we're talking about.

When we talk about protein, we're talking hundreds of grams.

At most, we're talking maybe 10, 20 grams for the athletes, which is basically two teaspoons in the run of a day.

So it's not a lot, but there is a lot of evidence-based research behind it, yeah.

Super exciting.

Like this is such an emerging area.

So from the neck up, I think the next 20 to 30 years will be focused almost entirely on this.

So our liver produces creatine and our brain actually is unique.
