Can the use of creatine supplementation attenuate muscle loss in cachexia and wasting?
Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition & Metabolic Care, 10/20/09
Sakkas G et al. – Creatine is a generally well tolerated, low–cost, over–the–counter nutritional supplement that shows potential in improving lean body mass and functionality in patients with wasting diseases.

Additional studies with longer follow–up are required to identify the populations that might benefit most from creatine supplementation.
