🚨 New Podcast Episode Alert: "Creatine and Your Kidneys: Debunking Myths and Finding the Facts" Creatine is one of the most widely used supplements for enhancing performance and increasing muscle mass, but it's often surrounded by misinformation, especially when it comes to kidney health. Many people are concerned about whether creatine can damage their kidneys, largely due to the confusion between elevated serum creatinine levels and actual kidney dysfunction. In this episode, we break down: - Why serum creatinine isn’t always the best marker for kidney function in those supplementing with creatine. - How Cystatin C provides a clearer picture of kidney health, especially for creatine users, because it's independent of muscle mass and unaffected by creatine supplementation. - The evidence that supports the safety of creatine supplementation for most healthy individuals, and the monitoring required for those with pre-existing kidney conditions. - Practical advice on how to navigate creatine use, kidney health markers, and when to consult with your healthcare provider. - We also provide recommended reading on this topic to further your understanding and make informed choices about your health. 🎧 Listen to the full episode here: https://lnkd.in/g-VvN-FG 📚 Recommended Reading: “Is It Time for a Requiem for Creatine Supplementation-Induced Kidney Failure?

Join us for our next webinar, The Best Way to Boost NAD+ on July 18 at 2pm ET. Registration closes July 16. Sign up today at https://buff.ly/4byOkw4. NAD+ is an essential cofactor for hundreds of enzymes, including the purported anti-aging activities of sirtuins. Raising levels can extend lifespan and rejuvenate health in many animals. What about humans? The four main NAD+-boosting supplements on the market are nicotinamide riboside (NR), nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), nicotinic acid (NA), and nicotinamide (NAM). In this 2-hour webinar, I will cover the pros and cons of each one. I’ll also go over the other five––NAD, NADH, NMNH, NRH, and tryptophan––and discuss three ways to naturally boost NAD levels without supplements. *Please note, a recording from the webinar will be sent to participants after the live webinar. ⁠
