The Dr. Gabrielle Lyon Show · Nobody Told You This About Creatine · 27 Aug 2026 podcast

And the people who responded most were the ones who started with the least. podcast-host

That summer at the Barcelona Olympics, British athletes were already using it, a supplement that had been unwanted. podcast-host

A few years earlier, it had made its informal debut on the world stage. podcast-host

Now, I love this story, and I will come back to what it exposes at the end. podcast-host

But I know that you didn't come here for my stories or history lessons. podcast-host

But by the end of this episode, you will know the facts that pertain to you, who should take creatine, whether it's safe, the real side effects, and exactly. podcast-host

How does it work? podcast-host

First, what creatine is and what it's not. podcast-host

Creatine is not an anabolic steroid. podcast-host

It is not a stimulant and it is not a hormone. podcast-host

It's a compound your body already makes from three amino acids: arginine, glycine, and methionine. podcast-host

And one you already eat every time you have meat or fish. podcast-host

Research indicates high quality. podcast-host

Creatine monohydrate is recognized as safe by regulators and has been studied at doses well above maintenance for years at a time in populations ranging from infants to the very elderly. podcast-host

So we always have to ask: what is the mechanism of action? podcast-host

Creatine is the raw material your muscles use to rapidly regenerate ATP, the body's immediate energy currency, through what is known. podcast-host

Known as the phospho-creatine system. podcast-host

ATP powers muscle contraction, but your stores are small and can be spent within seconds during intense effort. podcast-host

By increasing the creatine stores, which makes a ton of sense in your muscle, supplementation expands the rapid energy reserve. podcast-host

So, like in my morning workout, which was brutal this morning, I can produce high force for a little bit longer before fatigue or nausea set in. podcast-host
