    Unknown authors

    Published in Physiological Reports

    Key Findings

    Seven days of creatine monohydrate raised free creatine and total creatine in muscle, but phosphocreatine and repeated-sprint peak/mean power were unchanged.

    Conclusions

    Loading raises total muscle creatine in vegans and vegetarians without measurable phosphocreatine or performance gains over 7 days.

    Supplements Studied

    A seven-day CM supplementation in healthy vegans and vegetarians increased Cr and TCr whereas Phosphocreatine, peak and mean power output during repeated sprints were unchanged.

    Outcomes Measured

    A seven-day CM supplementation in healthy vegans and vegetarians increased Cr and TCr whereas Phosphocreatine, peak and mean power output during repeated sprints were unchanged.

    Seven days of creatine monohydrate raised free creatine and total creatine in muscle, but phosphocreatine and repeated-sprint peak/mean power were unchanged.
