What is Creatine?
Creatine is a natural compound made in our bodies to supply energy to our muscles. Its chemical name is actually ‘methylguanido-acetic acid’, but who wants to pronounce that in day-to-day life! Creatine is formed from three amino acids; arginine, methionine and glycine. The chemical process is not worth explaining as its relevance is null and void to training circumstances.
Creatine is produced in our liver primarily, and our pancreas and kidneys also. Its transported to our muscles via our bloodstream and is converted to creatine phosphate, this is achieved by the enzyme creatine kinase, which helps bond creatine to a high energy phosphate group.
