Creatine Isn’t Natural
You think you’re “natural” just because you only take creatine? Hate to break it to you, but that’s not exactly true. The creatine you scoop out of a tub isn’t from nature — it’s creatine monohydrate, a fully synthetic compound made in labs from sarcosine and cyanamide. The truly natural form, phosphocreatine, exists only in animal muscle tissue. The powdered version didn’t even exist before the 1950s — that’s why supplement companies proudly label it vegan.
So, if your progress comes from lab-made creatine, can you really call yourself natural… or are you just telling yourself that?
creatine genuinely works. Over weeks or months, it helps you train harder and lift heavier by boosting ATP, your cells’ main energy source. This translates to real muscle growth, not just water weight. Dozens of studies back it up — showing that creatine users gain more lean mass, strength, and training volume than those taking a placebo.
