I’m pretty sure there’s no credible evidence to support the assertion that the quantities of Creatine discussed in this thread have any negative effects on kidney or liver function in healthy individuals.
If you have evidence to the contrary, please present it.[/quote]
Taking anything in excess which has to be filtererd by the internal organs puts an undue stress on it, which can lead to problems. And the fact is excessive amounts of creatine has to be gotten rid of, via the kidneys putting you at possible risk of some problems in later life.

Come again? Do you have anything at all to back that up?[/quote]
i’m not going to search all day long for a study to convince you…through reading sites and various articles over the past few years and then applying different methods to my own supplementation, i’ve found that using it everyday is what works. see Berardi.
as i mentioned before, for me, if i can’t take my creatine for a few days in row, i notice a deflating - that shows me that it’s absence is having an effect.

It looks like Rock 27 is one of the smartest people in this blog. If he was spending too much time in bodybuilding.com he probably would be saying nothing is wrong with anything. Creatine storage can take place up to 2 months. A person can take creatine for a couple of weeks, and the next few weeks that person will still have a full load of creatine in their body for a few more weeks. Creatine is also in some of the foods that we eat, so any little bit lost would be quickly picked up from eating a good steak.
