Could combining protein and creatine result in liver damage?

Hi, if a high protein diet is combined with taking creatine monohydrate, is there any chance it could cause harm to your liver? Thanks.

Hi Mitchell,

In 20 years of studying diet, exercise, the effects of high protein intakes and creatine, I've never seen any evidence of liver damage from high protein or creatine intake.

Some people still think high protein and creatine intake can be unhealthy for the kidneys but again, no convincing evidence exists to show that high protein or creatine intake is damaging to healthy kidneys.
