Story summary
  • Creatine can enhance performance by drawing water into muscle cells.
  • Headaches may occur if hydration is inadequate; staying hydrated and maintaining electrolyte balance mitigates side effects.
  • Alcohol can exacerbate dehydration and reduce creatine's effectiveness, increasing side effects.
  • Daily intake of 3-5 g suits most healthy adults; if headaches persist, pause and consult a doctor.
