It helps recycle cellular energy (ATP) during hard exercise. Creatine is a compound that comes from three amino acids, which are the building blocks of protein. Most of the creatine in your body is stored in your muscles, and smaller amounts are stored in your brain. Most creatine supplements use a form called creatine monohydrate. The liver, kidneys and pancreas also naturally make creatine. People usually get creatine through seafood and red meat. A typical diet gives about 1 to 2 grams of creatine a day, and the body replaces about 1 to 3 grams a day to keep usual creatine stores.
