- l5870uoo9y 2y ago> Creatine supplementation enhanced measures of memory performance in healthy individuals, especially in older adults (66–76 years). Of course, it remains unknown if natural dietary improvements could have a similar effect without the need to use a chemical supplement where the long-term effects aren't well studied.

- eth0up 2y agoIt's worth noting, whatever value you place on the fact, that 99% of all creatine from 99% all suppliers is made in China, typically listed as, eg "Packed in the USA with globally sourced ingredients". Follow-ups with various companies always confirms this, even for products listed as "Made in USA". Made in USA, except not really.... One exception may be Con-Cret, which may be producing creatine in Nebraska. But I'm not sure if they're NSF certified.
