Also as a plant based person, I get zero creatine naturally! So I take it because the brain actually NEEDS creatine. 5% of the organ is made of it! So while sure it helps with my hard push, I also use it because we vegs desperately need it for brainpower! (As it only comes from animal products)

If you knew how creatine powder is made I wonder if you'd ever take it.

Google it. And then look up what that ingredient is and what it does. The creatine powders are not made from meat. Nothing about it is naturally occurring.
