[QUOTE="RedlineAccord, post: 4105799, member: 571503"] The only reason I'd support him in saying that it is detrimental is that creatine, unlike nitric oxide supplements, has a longer half life and is not as easily broken down in the body. Yes, it is naturally in the body, and in small amounts also in your diet, but only exactly that... small amounts. The amount of creatine you're taking for working out is many times more than what you would need, leading to unnecessarily high levels which the body needs to get rid of. This affects the kidneys over a long period of time, and kidney failure is not fun. Not saying you'll see the effects for a long long time, but just saying that what he said about long term studies may have SOME merit to it. And honestly, like I said, if I was able to gain a ton of mass and strength naturally without having to use supplements which some may even have the SLIGHTEST idea of a health risk... then why not just be safe about it?
