Creatine Bodybuilding

Creatine is actually produced in our own bodies (in the liver and the kidneys) and provides a basic building block in muscle development as it is essential for muscular contractions. We could get lots of creatine by eating raw fish and red meat as it is destroyed in the cooking process. you would have to eat about 16 steaks a day to get abiut 20gr of creatine for pumping your muscles - not really feasible.
