A New Study Just Linked Creatine To Cancer

Creatine is one of the most-studied supplements in the world, taken by millions of people who have been told for years it is about as safe as anything on the shelf. Then, within weeks of each other, two peer-reviewed studies reached opposite conclusions about what it does to cancer. One found that creatine helped cancer spread faster through the body. The other found that creatine helped the body fight cancer off. Same molecule, serious labs, and results that cannot both be simple. This investigation starts with the alarming study, published only days ago, and takes it apart: what it actually measured, what it measured only in mice, and what it never measured in a human at all. Then it does what the headlines will not, setting that study against the wider body of research to answer the only question that matters for the person taking it. Is creatine feeding cancer, or is something more ordinary going on?
