I haven't researched those yet as aids in CMT and was surprised since I never heard of either supplement being used in this way. I'm a registered dietitian and enjoy researching nutritional supplements so I'd love to know more in case anyway has seen research on this. >> Currently there is a trial being run that includes the use of creatine for CMTers. CMTI has more information. A comment from another CMTer: << If you decide to take creatine here are a few ways to use it more safely: Don't mix creatine with fruit juice, a method recommended by some manufacturers--this promotes the formation of creatinine, a metabolic waste product that increases the workload on the kidneys. Don't take high doses for more than a few days: Many users " load " the muscles by taking 20 grams daily for the first 5 days, but after that the body can use only 2-3 grams per day. Finally, be sure to drink at least 2 quarts of water per day to avoid dehydration. >> Kat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
