[QUOTE="BadassBlues, post: 268273, member: 38526"] Astragalus has many purported benefits and has been used for centuries for a wide range of conditions. I can't see any downside to adding it to your supplement regimen. To do it to lower a creatinine score however doesn't seem like a logical decision. Supplementation with creatine is going to increase creatinine levels, that is just a given that all of us who use creatine have to accept. The important thing is to make your physician aware that you are supplementing with creatine so they don't panic at the elevated levels and assume a renal problem. If the problem causes you angst, stop for a few weeks, test your creatinine and then make a determination if it was indeed the creatine causing the problem. If so, then make the decision of whether or whether not the benefits of creatine supplementation outweigh the annoyance of having a higher creatinine score on a test. If your levels remain high, then perhaps as Sammy stated above, you take other measures to lower them. [/QUOTE]
