Creatine

I am a 33 year old teacher/coach. I have taken two cycles of Creatine Monohydrate and experienced exceptional growth with each. However, about 10 weeks into my first cycle I became very sick. I had night sweats and a temperature that would elevate in the evening. This lasted for approx. a month before it subsided. I went to the doctor and had some blood work done. His findings were inconclusive. My liver function was a little high but not abnormal. So, can I attribute the sickness to creatine...No. As a Football and basketball coach I encourage my athletes to supplement their weight training with Creatine Monohydrate. These are 16, 17 and 18 year old athletes. I also make it clear that it is not a miracle supplement. There is no substitute for hard work and time spent in the gym!!!

I am a Secondary Health Teacher and a Volleyball coach and I would never dream of recommending my athletes taking something that could be potentially harmful. Especially if I had had previous problems while using the same thing. I think it is absurd for this to be happening in the school system.

Wow! What an incredible risk you opt to take! What possible benefit can YOU derive from recommending supplements to KIDS whose bodies are in the developmental stages? And how long would you say it takes for epidemiology to catch up with our substance ingestion trends? You had better hope that the verdict turns out to be a good one for Creatine!
And stay the hell away from MY kids!
