21. Should Women Take Creatine? The Truth Behind the Hype

Have you ever wondered whether creatine is actually worth taking or if it’s even meant for women at all?

Are you curious why so many experts are suddenly talking about creatine as a “must-have” for long-term health?

In this episode, I break down one of the most misunderstood supplements in women’s health: creatine. Not the gym bro stereotype or the bodybuilding myth. This is a deep, accessible, and actionable conversation about how creatine supports women through hormonal shifts, perimenopause, menopause, and beyond.

I discuss the research, physiology, gender gap, dosage, and six critical benefits most women have never been told about. If you’re experiencing changes in sleep, cognition, mood, muscle recovery, or energy as you move through your 30s, 40s, and 50s..this episode is a must listen.

In this episode:

• What creatine really is, and why the stereotypes around it are completely wrong

• Why women naturally start with lower creatine stores than men

• How much creatine women should take daily

• The difference between creatine monohydrate and other forms

• Why creatine is considered one of the most researched and safest supplements available

• How to pair creatine with resistance training for maximum benefits

• When to talk to your doctor before supplementing
