Creatine may build muscle without exercise, study finds

Original: Creatine may help build muscle even without exercise, researchers find

Researchers report that creatine supplementation may increase muscle mass even in the absence of exercise, challenging the long-held assumption that the supplement works only alongside resistance training. The finding is drawing attention online, with readers debating how significant the effect is and whether it applies to older adults or people unable to exercise. Details of the study's design and effect sizes remain limited in early coverage.

Why now: New research suggesting a widely used supplement may work without exercise challenges common assumptions and interests athletes and health readers alike.
