I've been doing research on creatine lately and I think I'm safe with this, but still want some more opinions.

I've been on a program to lose fat, a serious amount, and I wanted to incorporate some weight lifting in. I still have some left to lose and was wondering if creatine is OK to take. I want to increase lean muscle mass in some areas, bulk up in others, etc. But overall I'm really concerned on maintaining fat burn while gaining the lean muscle.

I read that taking it had some benefits for fat loss, and of course gaining more muscle helps the process. Whats your opinion? Thanks.
