Effects of six weeks of high-dose creatine monohydrate supplementation with or without guanidinoacetic acid on homocysteine and markers of health [PDF]
Background Guanidinoacetic acid (GAA) is the precursor to creatine. Preliminary studies indicate that GAA supplementation (e.g. 2–3 g/d for 4 weeks) can increase brain creatine to a similar degree as higher amounts of CrM.
