i do question the hair fall out thing. Only cycle creatine if you are coming back to the gym or some chit. Don't use it long term.

Saw something recently that said extensive research shows it helps dramatically.

I kinda believe it now. But had no idea about the hairless chit

Beta alanine was the other performance enhancer

Creatine is sponsored by the Norwood reaper. Notice how all the people who praise it are baldcells.

It's terrific, right? So you know, I am in heaven."

Always wanted to try it but I wouldn't make it as a baldcel, so I never did.

I took it for a couple years in my early 30s, didn't really seem to give me enough benefits to keep on it though so I just stopped one day.

Still have all my hair at 39 now so maybe people who are already gonna go bald might have an issue with hair loss but that wasn't my experience.

On a cold Friday afternoon, I had come home from school. I had been thinking of the gym all day. I was hungry, didn't have any lunch. In fact, I didn't eat because I spent the money. For the past month I was saving up for something. Something special which I bought at GNC. I was surprised they didn't ask for ID; I was pretty sure the cashier noticed how nervous I was. Anyways, my mom asked my how my day was when I got home, but I ignored her. I have more important things to do. I run to the bathroom and unpack my bag. In my school bag is a white plastic bag from GNC. I open the bag, first removing the receipt and flushing it down the toilet to get rid of the evidence. My heart was racing now. I unpack the creatine monster from the bag.

I wonder what people will be asking me when they see that I will be 50lbs heavier. Should I say I was just eating a lot? I remove the label from the tub and tear it into a thousand small pieces. I flush that down the toilet, too. It is time now. I run up to my room when my mom ask me what I am holding. I panic, sweat drips down my forehead and my teeth chatter. "Mom, it's just for a school project". "What project?" "I don't know mom I just started it!". A tear runs down my cheek. I run upstairs and open the creatine, scooping upservings into a clear water bottle. What have I gotten myself into? I fill it with water and drink it. There is no turning back now. The creatine monster is inside me now, it will control me. What should I do if I die? I cant let my family know about this.

I open the creatine tub and throw it all out the window; a white cloud of mysterious dust sparkles into the wind so graciously. I feel the substance taking control of me; I am now the monster. I walk downstairs, its time to work out; time to get big. Now I worry, I don't want to get too big; people will think I use steroids. I do use steroids. No I don't. Creatine. All I see is the weights now, I am almost downstairs when I hear "Do you want a cookie I just baked". I know I do not have time for this **** now. "No mom I do not want a cookie" I walk in the basement and drop to my knees before the weights, tears running down my cheeks. I turn to the right and look at myself in the mirror. Oh god, what have I done?

Creatine is pretty effective and safe. May help increase some lifts 2-3%, increase muscle volumization, may increase DHT.
