Creatine helps immune cells fight cancer, new study finds
New research suggests that creatine, a popular athletic supplement, could aid the immune system in combating cancer. A study conducted by UCLA researchers revealed that creatine provides energy to dendritic cells, vital immune cells responsible for guiding killer T-cells in their assault on tumors. The discovery suggests a possibility that existing cancer immunotherapies could become more potent and accessible to more individuals.
