Bloating of stomach due to water retention is another well-known side effect. There are no correlations between creatine intake and liver functions howsoever. But if existing liver conditions prevail seek doctor\u2019s guidance.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion-2\"><\/span><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Creatine stands as a powerful and well-researched supplement.
