Very informative post - I was just recommended to take creatine by a friend who is studying nutrition. She said there are too many benefits not to take this daily especially at my age - 44 yo woman.

Thank you!

Yess! Creatine is the only supplement I can actually feel the benefit of. A multi-month bout with pain ruined my deep sleep, and many months later it’s still to return to it’s normal levels (my oura ring claims I got 4 minutes night ) and creatine has made it possible to function almost normally through this ordeal.

I wish you had mentioned dosage for cognitive function. Dr. Ken Barry just referenced a study showing 20grams per day was shown to significantly improve mental clarity.

How is it taken? All at once, mixed with water? With or without food? How’s the taste?

I add it (10grams) to my collagen powder every day.

I just started taking creatine a month ago after seeing a YouTube on it. When it initially came out they tried to fear people into not using it. After reading your article I see why its not a pharmaceutical. Thanks for the great info.
