Creatine is an amino acid that helps keep muscles supplied with energy. Creatine supplements are often used by athletes to help build muscle mass and improve performance.

While there have been no major studies involving the use of creatine by crohn's sufferers it again must remain up to the individual to ascertain whether the ingestion of this supplement causes flare up of symptoms.

Please talk with your bowel care team who can develope an appropriate clinical trial.

Start small, if it bothers you,stop taking it.
