• Status: Completed
• Trial end date: 2007-01-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: Male

Summary

Creatine (CR) supplementation is commonly used by athletes. However, its effects on renal function remain controversial. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of creatine supplementation on renal function and oxidative stress in healthy sedentary males (18-35 years old) submitted to exercise training. Our hipothesis is that creatine supplementation does not affect renal function in this population.
