Episode description as stored
Creatine has been treated like a bodybuilding supplement for decades, but research suggests it may also support brain energy, mood, bone strength, mitochondrial health, and healthy aging. In this episode, Dr. Josh Axe explains how creatine helps replenish ATP, why women and adults over 50 may benefit most, and how much to take for the best results. He also breaks down the research on strength, cognition, depression, menopause, and bone density while revealing the simple mistake that causes many people to give up on creatine before it has a chance to work.
