Creatine is an energy enabler.

So what creatine does, it helps regenerate broken down ATP within the cells for more energy.

As you see, ATP has a powerful potential.

within our body for many different bodily functions and activities.

Now, insulin gets a bad rap occasionally because a lot of people don't understand insulin.

Insulin is necessary.

Like we want our bodies to naturally and effectively release from the pancreas insulin in response to a blood sugar spike.

We want to move the glucose out of the blood into the cells where it can be utilized.

Insulin is a key regulator in both energy balance and blood sugar control.

Now, when someone becomes insulin resistant, their body still makes insulin, but the cells don't respond properly.

And this can lead to type 2 diabetes, for example.

Type 2 diabetes is not necessarily because you've consumed way too many carbs and sugar and candy.

It's a bigger issue.

It's more chronic.

Type 2 diabetes can and potentially will develop because of a chronic caloric surplus, poor nutrition practices and choices, a sedentary lifestyle, excess visceral fat, poor sleep, high stress, and genetics.

So you get type 2 diabetes when you become insulin resistant.

So like I said, your body still makes insulin, but the cells don't respond properly to the insulin.

So think of it like this.

Insulin is the key.

The cell is the lock.
