Background

The purpose of this investigation was to determine if creatine affected measures of GI distress.

Methods

Twenty-three healthy recreationally active subjects (age: 22±7 years, height: 177±6 centimeters) were randomly assigned to a 4-week treatment that consisted of: 5 grams of creatine (generic), 5 grams of creatine (CreaBev®), and control (no creatine). GI symptoms were measured via the SODA assessment (severity of dyspepsia assessment). The “SODA” questionnaire measures in a validated format, perceived gastric upset, or gastric discomfort as well as overall satisfaction for function.

Results

There were no differences between groups for any measure of dyspepsia.

Conclusions

Creatine (generic or the IP version) has no effect on measures of GI distress.
