    Hey everyone i just started lifting im turning 18 in a month, and i started using Amplified Creatine 189 from GNC. and i was planning on doing it on this cycle taking 2 on training days taking one on non training days, for a month, then get off it for a month and just use weight gaining protein for a month and just keep doing that pattern. I was fine with doing that but now im getting abdominal cramps could this be the creatine having affect on my kidneys

    Creatine has been shown to accelerate the growth of cysts in rats with Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD). But studies have not yet determined if Creatine supplementation will accelerate the growth of cysts in humans with PKD. PKD is prevelant in approximately 1 in 1000 people and may not be detectable until affected individuals reach their thirties.Also creatine use is not considered doping and is not banned by the majority of sport-governing bodies.

    there is no need to cycle creatine unless you have an odd reaction to it.

    i like creatine
    used to hate it with a passion for some reason

    now i take it pre and post workout
    around 10g a day believe it or not

    no bloating
    no "water retention"

    not even any significant weight gains
    but my muscles seem to recover quicker
    and my strength is on the rise
