re: I should have started with Creatine a long time ago.

I've been getting tempted to get into my son's creatine and protein powder regime

I'm not qualified to give medical advice but I did read dozens of medical doctors' opinions on creatine before I started taking it - none said don't and the majority advised that everyone - male and female - over the age of adolescence should take it daily.

I worry about the extra water weight from creatine.

I never experienced any water weight gains - maybe due to walking an hour every day in FL - makes staying just nominally hydrated challenging.

My physical conditioning regimen also improves my mental "attitude" for lack of a better word. Actuarial tables indicate I am either in, or soon will enter, the last decade of life - I want to optimize the remaining time.
