More Creatine, More Gains? Shocking Study Reveals the Truth

[Prince]

Creatine is the most researched supplement in sports nutrition. It’s been proven to enhance strength, power, and muscle mass. We’ve even seen how creatine monohydrate can help improve brain health and cognition.

That all being said, the biggest draw for creatine is for those who hit the gym and want to build muscle and strength. But is the 5g maintenance dose really enough to get the results we are all looking for?

New research suggests that a daily dose higher than 5g may be needed to maximize lean body mass (LBM) gains. While 5g may be good when you’re first starting, it may not be enough once you start adding more and more size.

anecdotally, I have always felt like a non responder under 10g. Although I think quality of creatine matters too. Unfortunately that study sorta seems to leave a lot of questions rather than answers. seems like a follow up study with higher doses, a larger pool of test subjects, etc would be beneficial to learn more.
