Creatine Monohydrate: Facts about Creatine & Side Effects by Dr Anthony & Team
My name is Dr Edwin Anthony.  I am a Founder & Director of EA Clinic.  I specialise in body contouring, practising from my private clinic on 99 Harley Street, London.
I was born in London and trained in Medicine and Surgery at the prestigious Trinity College Dublin, qualifying in 1999. I am a Cosmetic Doctor and a Hair Transplant Surgeon.   Additionally, I completed my advanced training in Aesthetic Medicine in 2009. However, I am not here to talk about cosmetic surgery today.
I have followed the science behind supplements, specifically sports supplements, for many years and I want to give you my views on Creatine.   As a medical doctor, I believe that formal medical advise requires formal, 1-2-1 consultation. Therefore, the information provided in this video is intended for your general knowledge only and does not constitute medical advice.
What follows are some frequently asked questions about the popular supplement, creatine.  Here, we address what creatine supplements do and just as importantly, what they do not do.  This information is taken from a wealth of scientific literature, verified by the senior research scientist within our team and provided in a clear and impartial manner. Our goal is to allow you to make informed decisions about creatine supplementation.

CREATINE - BUILDS MUSCLE FOR YOU
CREATINE (Creatine Monohydrate Is The Most Common Version Sold)
Creatine Monohydrate is among one of the most prominent supplements for those embarking on strength, speed and power based training. Creatine has  the ability to increase physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high intensity exercise.
Creatine is backed by research which is published in the Journal of Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry and even the https://academic.oup.com/biomedgerontology/article/58/1/B11/582346/Creatine-Supplementation-Enhances-Isometric.
WHAT IS CREATINE MONOHYDRATE USED FOR?
Creatine Monohydrate is just one of one of the most preferred supplements for those taking on strength, speed and power based training. This is based upon creatine's capability to enhance physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high intensity exercise.
Where is creatine found in the body?
Creatine serves as either an energy or alkali overdraft for the cell. Tissues that never work very hard, have no need for such an overdraft facility. Tissues that continuously work hard need a better, longer-term solution. As an example, cardiac muscle tissue can never stop working. 
It has special adaptations to allow this and a very good blood supply. Creatine is a practical solution for tissues with a very variable and unpredictable workload.  Because of this, 95% of creatine in the body is found in skeletal muscle tissue, a tissue that occasionally works flat out but spends about 7 consecutive hours a day performing no work at all.
Why should I take a creatine supplement?
Creatine has a limited lifespan. It is degraded into creatinine and cannot be regenerated. It must therefore be continuously replenished. In addition, any new muscle tissue will need its own store of creatine. Therefore, creatine requirements increase as your muscle mass increases. Creatine is a micronutrient as opposed to a vitamin. 
This means that your body can make its own, but there is a benefit to having it in your diet. If there is not enough creatine in your diet, your body can make it from your dietary amino acids. However, this means that a creatine deficient diet puts a drain on your amino acid pool, something that should be avoided if your goal is to increase your muscle mass.
While there is plenty of creatine in animal protein, it has difficulty getting into the body intact. Creatine is unstable in acidic conditions and will therefore have a poor half-life while passing through the stomach. It is no surprise then that clinical studies have shown that creatine supplementation does have measurable benefits.  
Research suggests that it helps healthy adults in weight training by enhancing quantifiable attributes such as work capacity and recovery time.
Additionally, creatine supplementation appears to benefit patients with neurologic conditions such as Parkinson’s disease by slowing down the deterioration of brain function.  
It appears to mitigate against sarcopenia. Sarcopenia is the normal loss of muscle mass and strength as we age that can begin as early as age 35. We see strength losses between ages 50 and 60 of about 1.5% per year and those losses will increase after the age of 60 by up to 3% per year.
So, creatine supplementation can actually help you to maintain strength and stay active.

Pre-Workout - What is the Best Pre-Workout
Pre-Workout - What is the Best Pre-Workout 
Natural sources of Nitrates include foods such as Beetroot and leafy green vegetables.  In human bodies, Nitrates breakdown to form the nitrites which are circulated within our systems. Our bodies convert the stored nitrites into nitric oxide (NO) when needed.
Physically active people can gain numerous benefits from elevated levels of NO in their system; however, Nitrates are not commercially sold as dietary supplements.
This is due to the regulatory restrictions that prevent the use of high amounts of sodium nitrates as food additives used for meat products.
Benefits:
•             Enhances the production of ATP
•             Improves blood circulation
•             Improves anaerobic and aerobic endurance
•             Enhances muscles & Boost work output.
The optimal dose is based on your weight; however, to get the desired benefits, you should consume about 600mg to 800mg at least two hours before your workout, ONLY to be taken on training days.

BCAA - What You Need To Know …
BCAA - What You Need To Know
Branched Chained Amino Acids (BCAAs) are very popular with bodybuilders and powerlifters. There are 3 types of BCAAs are; leucine, isoleucine, and also valine which make up as much as 33% of muscle mass cells.
They’re called “branched chained amino acids” just as a result of their chemical framework– we get the BCAA’s from our diet as the body cant produce them!
Studies have shown that supplementation with BCAA’s during athletic performance may reduce fatigue and prolong exercise endurance by increasing the lactic threshold of your body. When we work out, lactic acid is produced which makes you “feel the burn” and eventually forces you to finish your workout.
By supplementing with BCAA’s you can ensure there are always enough free amino acids available to aid in the recovery process and reduce overall catabolism (the breakdown of muscle tissue).

BCAA - What are the benefits and are BCAAs Anti-Catabolic?
What are the benefits and are BCAAs Anti-Catabolic?
There is a lot more research that supports the usage of BCAAs than most other supplements currently available.
Calorie Deficit will make you look awesome onstage, on the beach, and to your friends, but it can also reduce your muscle mass.
While BCAA supplementation may be beneficial for gaining muscle, BCAAs are especially helpful for maintaining mass while on a calorie-deficit diet. They’re particularly useful for bodybuilding competitors who take their physiques to the lean extreme.
The phrase BCAAs knowns as to three amino acids, isoleucine, valine and leucine, which are differentiated by their distinct branched structure. In addition to serving as three of the 20 building blocks for proteins (such as those found in muscle fibres), BCAAs are also used as fuel during intense exercise.

 5 Benefits of Beetroot/ Nitric Oxide Supplement, in detail:
•             Enhances the production of ATP. ATP/ADP are best described as they energy currencies of the cell; and their exchange rate determines how much energy we have. The calories you burn are used to convert Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) into Adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is the activated form. In this state, ATP becomes abundant and powers the physical activities of the body.  
•             Improves blood circulation (Vasodilation makes your blood vessels expand). Greater amounts of Nitric Oxide you have circulating, will lead to a better muscle pump.
•             Improves anaerobic and aerobic endurance
•             Enhances muscles recovery. Improved blood flow allows nutrients to be shuttled into the muscles.
·                  Boost work output by reducing fatigue.

Creatine serves as a temporary emergency backup which supplies energy to the cells when ATP - the body’s main energy store - is in short supply. Unfortunately, creatine has a limited lifespan inside the cell and must be continually replaced. 
As your muscle mass increases, so does your need for creatine. To keep up with creatine production, your body ultimately uses up much of its amino acid supplies. Supplementing with creatine means that the body does not need to make it from amino acids that could otherwise be used for making new proteins, such as those found in new muscle fibres.

CREATINE - What does the Doctor & Medical Research have to say?
CREATINE - What does the Doctor & Medical Research have to say? Naz & Dr Minhas discuss the Facts & Myths! Creatine is one of the few supplements out there that is actually well-backed by research in terms of its effectiveness. However, there’s a lot of confusion out there as to how to take creatine and how creatine works. Creatine serves as a temporary emergency backup which supplies energy to the cells when ATP- the body’s main energy store- is in short supply. Unfortunately, creatine has a limited lifespan in the cell and must be continually replaced. As muscle mass increases, our creatine need also increases, and to keep up to this, our body’s amino acid pool is drastically reduced because creatine is made from amino acids.
This presentation covers: What is creatine? Who benefits from it? How should you take it? Can creatine help combat age-related muscle loss? What happens if you stop taking creatine?

Is CITRULLINE L Best NITRIC OXIDE Supplements or Is it Citrulline Malate?
Is CITRULLINE L Best NITRIC OXIDE Supplements or Is it Citrulline Malate?
Now let's talk about Citrulline Malate.
Citrulline Malate is simply a mixture of citrulline and malate. While citrulline is an amino acid not found in protein, malate is a more regular acid that is found in nature.
Citrulline and malate are intermediates of the Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle and the Nitric Oxide cycles in aerobic metabolism.

BETA ALANINE Explained in 2 Minutes! Benefits of Beta Alanine – The Facts!
BETA ALANINE Explained in 2 Minutes! Benefits of Beta Alanine – The Facts!
Beta-Alanine is present in dietary protein foods like beef, fish, chicken, milk, and it is non-essential amino acid.
When we take Beta-Alanine supplement, it binds with Histidine to form Carnosine. Carnosine is stored in the muscles where it acts as a strong intracellular buffer.
Unlike Beta-Alanine and Histidine, Carnosine can’t enter into the skeletal muscle.
