The problem is not the sadness itself, but how our minds react to the sadness. [2007] - Mark Williams

Adding 3-5 g of creatine a day and 2-3 days of resistance training a week led to an additional 3 pounds of lean mass over an average duration of about 4 months. Some of this lean mass may be water weight, but creatine combined with resistance exercise increases muscle strength as well. The standard dose to achieve muscle saturation is 3 g a day. For older adults, it takes at least 12 weeks of creatine-supplement resistance training to see a significant additive effect. One third-party supplement testing outfit that checked for impurities chose as its top pick the BulkSupplements brand, which also happened to be the cheapest at about 10 cents per daily 3-g serving, which is about a level teaspoonful. [2023] - Michael Greger
