Creatine is often called the most researched supplement on the planet. But what is it, really? And what are you actually putting into your body when you take it?

In this episode of the Vegans Explore Podcast, we break down what creatine is, how it works inside the body, and why it is so widely used by athletes, bodybuilders, and researchers alike. We explore its role in energy production, performance, recovery, and emerging research around brain health and aging.

We also look at where creatine comes from, why Vegans tend to have lower natural stores, and whether modern creatine supplements are truly Vegan-friendly. This conversation cuts through hype and myths to focus on science, clarity, and informed choice.

Whether you are plant-based, Vegan, athletic, or simply curious about supplements, this episode gives you the context you need to decide what aligns with your goals and values.
