Does taking creatine monohydrate affect the health of teens?!


Question: Does taking creatine monohydrate affect the health of teens?
Is it unhealthy for a 14 year old boy to take creatine monohydrate?
In Florida it is ok for minors to take it. There is no age requirement. Will taking this affect growth?

Answers:

I am currently doing research regarding creatine at N.C State University

I would love for as many people as possible to take this survey to help me out with my research.

But regarding your situation, creatine does not stunt puberty growth. It may cause problems down the road if you take it for a long time. Take the survey and see for yourself.



It actually is very healthy. If you eat steak you're getting creatine. So clearly it's not unhealthy if it's a naturally occuring substance in food. Just don't over do it to where it can affect your kidneys bu be sure to drink plenty of water.



Depends, if you drink lots of water and workout after you take it you'll be fine. If not you'll become dehydrated and kill your kidneys. If you dont workout dont take it, it's unessesary.

I workout and have friends who take it.
