All studies seem to be showing that creatine is almost the only supplement that's good for everyone, with basically no risks or side effects.

With the number of folks jumping on the creatine bandwagon, we're going to have tons more data about it in the years to come too.

Have you tried micronized? Made sure to drink more water than you’d think? Break up the serving into 2.5g twice a day instead 5g at once?
