In my never-ending search for "My Perfect MS Diet" I've recently added Creatine and Glycine into my daily nutritional intake.

Creatine addition is around 10-15 grams daily and the Glycine is around 6-10 grams.

I've been doing this for about 3 weeks now and Find I have a little more energy and I definitely feel more clear headed.

Just wondering if other have tried either one of these supps and what results they have achieved?

did your weight (water) go up a couple of lbs with creatine?

I have no idea. I do not weigh myself on a regular basis. My pants still fit the same 🤣

I use creatine daily.

Forever it was a muscle building supplement but recent studies have shown it serves a far greater purpose for mental/brain health.

The water weight is true but not all that meaningful. If I am a pro bodybuilder with a body fat percentage with a bodyfat count in the single digits the amount of water retained is impactful but for the average every day guy, not so much.

Timing is not as important as once thought. I do two doses daily to get to 10-15 grams.

I will probably try it in the future. I would welcome more water in my muscle tissue.

3 Reasons to Consider Creatine on Carnivore and Animal-Based Diets

Creatine is now NON-NEGOTIABLE.

If You’ve Never Taken 20g of Creatine, Watch THIS Immediately

Creatine may be the most studied performance enhancer ever. Some recent studies show it may not be the performance enhancer it was once thought but the doors for brain health and mental cognizance are wide open.

There is some debate within the carnivore community that we get enough by the meats we eat. Probably true for some but I ate more meat prior to carnivore than I do now. Carnivore and the satiety of meat, especially red meat, has killed my appetite so I use creatine pretty much regularly.

That's pretty much my story also. I've also added the glycine after reading a short article on Emma Voysey's webpage (about increased bladder control) and seeing a few videos about the good health effects of glycine supplementation. My personal health experiments continue on 😁

I'm a huge fan of 'personal health experiments'. At least with these I feel like I am not basing my decisions and conclusions based on someone else's experiences. Other than me being in control I don't see a lo of difference between me doing a 'personal health experiment' and a doctor 'practicing medicine'. Neither one of us know the end result. LOL

I have been on all red meat for a month or so now and last night was the time I ate anything other than red meat during that time. Sometimes it is hard to define 'I feel better' or even harder to define 'I feel better'. It is not like I have crazy energy on red meat but I do feel like I am getting more done during the same amount of time as a regular carnivore. I have a 1950 Chevrolet truck in the shop and just bought a 1969 Chevrolet. My overtime has slowed a bit and I have several days the past few weeks working in the shop. Just me, the trucks, the chickens and the dogs all creating 'noise' at the same time. Maybe it is carnivore, might even be the red meat or maybe this much time in the shop listening to the 'music we make' I could be eating corn flakes and cabbage and feel the same. LOL

I am super happy with my current path and I am not a 'rock the boat' kind of guy with my health/the way I feel.

Looking into the glycine. Thanks for the heads up.

The more I look into glycine, the more I like it. Like creatine, it doesn't seem to have any negatives. The testing continues................
