What Is Creatine? Can It Treat Sarcopenia (Muscle Loss with Age)?

66 Risposte a “What Is Creatine? Can It Treat Sarcopenia (Muscle Loss with Age)?”

1. Been on the fence. Think im gonna get some.

2. Dr. Gregor has Sarcopenia

3. I love this channel!

4. Doesn’t creatine also provide cognitive benefits?

5. Are their vegan creating supplements?

6. I’ve taken creatine many times for bodybuilding. It’s not enjoyable. It’s hard to dissolve, even the micronized version & w/ warm water. You have to drink lots of water, you’re constantly peeing & you gain lots of water weight. You feel swollen & like you’re drinking granules that your body can’t really process. Not worth it for me, but if the science says it’s good for sarcopenia.

7. I’ll just stick with my beans and barley thank you.

8. More importantly, the vast majority of sarcopenia sufferers are omnivorous and consume meat, so what CAUSES sarcopenia? The CAUSE cannot be a protein intake issue. Could be that protein is not being synthesized to muscle due to lack of movement or underlying disease, or both?

9. Off topic but I was perplexed with your favorable new stance on fluoride. You never seem to reply to comments but since fluoride is a waste product of aluminium, fertilizer, and atomic bomb manufacturing I thought I would caution people who follow you unwaveringly. "Studies on the health effects and safety of fluoride have always used pharmaceutical grade fluoride—not the far more toxic hydrofluorosilicic acid from the phosphate fertilizer industry. Until very recently, there has been no interest in studying the effects of the continued use of hydrofluorosilicic acid.”

10. creatine increases mTOR.

11. A pA pretty bad review of creatine.

12. Dear Dr. Greger, could you please do a video on the optimal amount of protein for increasing the muscle mass? And is this even good for health and longevity? Is bodybuiling, if its wfpb, a good thing without negative health or longevity consequences?

13. Finally, my favorite research scientist / medical doctor on my favorite supplement. All very interesting information, to be followed closely

14. Lemme take this opportunity to ask. Do you even lift doc? Kidding.

15. I'd be curious to hear more about the cognitive end. Early in the video, it sort of dismisses brain benefits. But elsewhere I've repeatedly heard that it helps because the brain uses so much energy. A deeper dive on that would be appreciated.

16. Sarcopenia is the single most concerning aspect of aging, in my opinion. Millions of people mistakenly think that instability and frailty is a normal part of aging, but in fact it's just a symptom of a sedentary lifestyle. My wife is 77 and can outperform women (and men) many decades younger in cycling, walking, sit to stand exercises and arm-wrestling. How can that be? She's physically active and doesn't eat the typical North American diet. She invited a younger neighbour to join her at the local yoga class, but she declined because she is unable to get up off the floor without assistance! As my father said, move or die.

17. I know strength training without creatine is very beneficial as well because I have witnessed it in myself and others. 💪

18. And then you have the benefits of carnosine for muscle strength as you age: PMID: 35276873. And of course you have numerous articles showing benefit of taurine for health and longevity. So I guess we should all be supplementing creatine and carnosine and taurine. Too bad there isn't a natural food source of these crucial nutrients.

19. Can vegetarian consume creatine monohydrate suplement?

20. Taking Creatine caused me Diabetes Insipidus, took 4 days to destroy my ADH production and it never came back.

21. So excited that you're covering creatine. Thank you!

22. More supplements? Whats about eating 1.2xkilos body weight of protein per day and exercising?
    Why keep complaining about H2S after egg consumption? Chickpeas also produce H2S. You can smell it after eating Chickpeas.

23. My stomach can not tolerate creatine. Horrible stuff

24. Next you should look at creatine use for pregnancy. Check out the work being done at Monash, Australia.

25. I’ll just stick to my 4 lbs of potatoes and head of purple cabbage every day. I get bored of exercise long before my stamina takes a dip. After two hours of lifting and walking for 3mins between sets, it’s like, “okay, what’re we doing here?”

26. You can PREVENT sarcopenia by eating superior protein sources like meat, fish, eggs and dairy while doing strength training. You are an ideologue and not concerned about health as such.

27. 👍 Whole food plant based for the environment and health; vegan for the victims!

28. You'd think it would increase stamina of the elderly, just from doing normal day to day activities like walking.

29. I take creatine for the cognitive benefits, but I forgot why.

30. Finally!

31. I've been there and done that. It causes hair loss in men, water retention and stomach bloat and upset. In my opinion the juice is not worth the squeeze.

32. This is from the person who does not have muscles, poor eye sight, anemic looks, bald head, etc. I will stick to meat.

33. I am really interested to watch about the side effects. It is something really weird which I cannot find anywhere online but over the course of 20 years of supplementing creatine, sometimes was once in a year, 3 times a year, even after I stopped for 2 years and supplemented again I observed that whenever I finish taking creatine after about a week I was down with a flu or a virus! :S This was when I was a meat eater and the past 10 years as a vegan! Its really sad since it has helped me a lot as an ectomorph in my strength training but to be honest lately I am afraid to keep trying! 😅
    PS: And a side effect I had and did found online was constipation 🙁

34. I eat a balanced diet of everything and exercise and I'm not going out to spend money on expensive supplements. Dr Brad Stanfield does a video saying that creatine is necessary for ALL adults.

35. Conclution; exercis😅😅😅

36. No need for the all the insults. Yes Dr G looks like he would benefit from a strength training program but he’s probably got lovely thick back hair.

37. I found creatine to be giving at most a 5% or so improvement in strength if at all, and that goes away soon after you stop taking it, so I don’t see the point of forever taking a supplement to be slightly stronger (if at all) and have slightly fuller muscles because of the water weight that is barely noticeable.

38. Waiting to finish a degree-atine here?!@

39. I don't take it because it gave me the shits and I'm worried it will worsen hair loss (pretty much a lost cause now).

40. I listen to your videos at .75 speed even though you end up sounding like you're on valium. 🙂

41. I've noticed a lot of longevity influencers have been pushing creatine more and more the past few months. Whenever people jump all over something new as a "miracle" solution, it makes me question it even more.

42. What about Taurine?

43. Interesting. Please make more videos about creatine. Is safe, has side effects, etc… I wonder if a meat eater and a vegan both do not taking supplements and training for strength. The meat eater would be stronger because he is getting extra creatine from animals? That is an argument used by meat eaters: without supplements, meat eaters would be stronger (they say). I would like you to answer that too.

44. Creation made liver function abnormal.

45. Recently had all my vitamins &minerals tested & my labs came back as low in creatine .i have low energy so i really think i may need to supplement this🤔

46. I was taking creatine when seriously working my weight lifting program. It definitely helped me lift more weight. I stopped taking it because my doctor complained about it screwing up my lab tests.

47. Do creatine supplements increase TMAO?

48. Has anyone else ever noticed an increased incidence of panic attacks while using Creatine?
    I stopped using it and noticed a dramatic drop in anxiety.
    I was training at the time, and I managed to maintain my strength gains, but they've continued slower now.

49. Do one on HMB, the metabolite of leucine. It's apparently been shown to maintain muscle even in sedentary. Also dementia benefits.

50. Eat carnivore and put big pharma out of business

51. 66 female here and after seeing so much on line I started creatine this weekend. I had already started resistance training with a personal trainer 9 weeks ago. Just on my own I have been impressed with the increases I am making in load, reps, etc. But with the addition of creatine I am hoping for even more benefits in brain and bone also.

52. "Animals we eat" speak for yourself. I know that you don't eat animals, Dr Gregor, but humans aren't a homogeneous group – don't lump us together.

53. No

54. Thank you for sharing! Very interesting.

55. I guess the side effect Dr. Greger mentioned is CANCER!

56. Thank you. Very interesting.

57. Can't wait for the next part of this !

58. [04:30] When should one take it?

59. So, what vegan Creatine Supplements are recommended?

60. Pure carnivore way of eating stopped all my aches & pains. Fat & protein>carbs & sugar

61. Some people take creatine combined with collagen …..is it necessary ?

62. Dis countray gattz a melk shortage

63. There is a Creatine Conference on YT that has a list of videos on how creatine can help many groups of people. The video I've attached is for older adults and I encourage you to look at all the videos.

64. When using a supplement, is it best to use Creatine Monohydrate OR Creatine Ethel Ester, OR Creatine HCL? Which is best and / or what is the difference?

65. It’s heard stays in the gut for a while, if you feel thirsty it’s because your gut is dry that’s the reason you’ll have to drink more water

66. lmao look at Greger and tell me he's an authority on muscle mass
