Modern Healthspan: Creatine Basics: How Your Body Makes & Uses It | Dr Dan Pardi #shorts
Peer-Reviewed Research
Key Takeaways
- Creatine is naturally produced in your body, primarily in the liver, after initial processing in the kidneys.
- Approximately 95% of creatine is stored in skeletal muscles, while the remaining 5% goes to the brain, heart, and other tissues like the gut.
- Muscle tissues do not produce creatine; it is transported from manufacturing sites like the liver.
Bottom Line
Ensure adequate dietary intake or supplementation to support creatine levels, especially if your natural production or dietary sources are insufficient.
