Creatine has been miscast as a fuel for nearly two centuries. The molecule French chemist Michel Eugène Chevreul isolated from beef broth in 1832 does something stranger — it sits inside the muscle cell as phosphocreatine, ready to hand a spent ATP molecule a fresh phosphate group in milliseconds, so the fibre can fire one more time before the burn sets in.

When Alexander Fleming returned to his St. Mary's Hospital lab in September 1928, a contaminated petri dish would change medicine forever.

There is a familiar story about happiness that runs through work, money, and status: first the promotion, then the calm; first the raise, then the life that can finally be enjoyed; first the public proof of success, then permission to feel satisfied.
