This is an incredibly nutrient dense menu.eggs, grass fed steak, chicken, lamb, bone broth, and bone marrow.

It’s taken me years to find a diet that doesn’t make me really bloated, and one that I actually feel good on.This is an incredibly nutrient dense menu.
Where can we find info on thisCreatine affects my mood. Apparently a rare side effect of those who are prone to mental health difficulties and neurochemical imbalances.
I just remember googling a lot and finding studies when I started taking creatine and my mood dropped. Quite a rare side effect and you get a lot of people saying it's a ridiculous claim, but there's a lot of people out there who have experienced similar and enquired about it.Where can we find info on this
It has done cool things like improve cognitive function in sleep deprived populations and traumatic brain injury populations.I just take creatine a few week ago. My brain was foggy back then and I think this probably the diet problem. I don't want to add more animal product to my eating so I start using creatine. I feel less foggy now but probably because I just drop my job...If anything cool happends I will report in here.
It has been studied in the past for sure.I just remember googling a lot and finding studies when I started taking creatine and my mood dropped.

That might be a dosing issue. There is some straight up stupid advice all over the internet on loading it. I found one calculator that recommended me to start at 33g a day... That is enough to give anyone some stomach issues.I used it in the past. It did not increase my strength ,the only thing it did was giving me a bloated belly. Also it gave me diarrea. For me it is a no go because I have intestinal problems very quick.
Yeah that was discussed in this podcast (link is to the point about creatine)... very interesting.The study I found showed that it improves depression significantly instead of worsens it.
Aye pretty much. When a muscle contracts the chemical chain of one adenosine triphosphate gets broken, creating adenosine diphosphate. The body then needs to fine another single phosphate molecule to bind the adenosine diphosphate to to create more adenosine triphosphate. So like you say the idea is having all this excess phosphate in your body from the creatine enables in theory more reps and quicker recovery between sets. I’m no chemist or expert by any measure but that’s how I’ve heard it explained.Please correct me if i am wrong, but just to get a better understanding out there of what creatine does. To my understanding creatine is one of the main (naturally occurring) components used to build ATP (what we use to contract our muscles). Since were all Strongfirst here we know that we only have limited stores of ATP. (This is where i get foggy) So once we use those ATP we can use the creatine to make more aerobically? Or is it that we just have better recovery/gains post training?
