Episode Description
Creatine is one of the most studied supplements in the world, yet most of what's on the shelves is garbage.
Out of 34 creatine companies Dr. Christian Gonzalez investigated, only 5 made the cut.
The rest? 22 companies ignored his questions entirely. 7 responded but failed to provide complete certificates of analysis. That means the majority of creatine on the market can't even prove it's safe.
Creatine isn't just for bodybuilders. It powers your brain, protects your neurons under stress, fights age-related muscle loss, and emerging research shows it may even help with depression and neurodegenerative diseases.
But without third-party testing, you're left guessing what's actually in the product; and your nervous system pays the price.
In this episode, Dr. G exposes which brands refused transparency and reveals the only 5 creatine products worth your money in 2025:
• Why are heavy metals, pesticides, and solvents hiding in creatine?
• Which creatine companies provided full certificates of analysis?
• What's the clinical sweet spot for dosing creatine safely?
• How does creatine protect your brain, not just your muscles?
