Diet Questions - Why Did I Get Diarrhea from
Creatine Monohydrate?
Diet Question:
I had purchased a creatine monohydrate powder online. After
three days taking 10 grams each day for the loading phase, I had
loose stool and diarrhea. So I stopped taking it for three days
and after that I had started taking it again and the same thing
happened. Why is this occurring?
Diet Answer:
Recent studies have shown athletes who took more than the recommended
amount of creatine experienced diarrhea, however this creatine effect
went away after reducing the dosage. I would recommend decreasing
the dosage to the maintenance level and see if the side effects
still occur. If you still experience these issues, I recommend discontinuing
creatine use altogether.
