Rosene, J. M., & Whitman, S. A. (2001). Effects of short-term creatine supplementation on thermoregulation in males. Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, 33(5), Supplement abstract 1146.

Males (N = 10) were supplemented with 20g/day of creatine for seven days. Pre- and post-thermoregulation cycle ergometry was performed at 75% VO2max for 30 minutes.

Thermoregulatory capabilities in males were not improved with creatine supplementation.

Implication. Creatine does not improve thermoregulation in exercising males.
