The science
Creatine is the most-researched supplement in sports nutrition. Here's what the evidence actually says — for women, specifically.
Strength & lean muscle
Creatine supports strength and lean-mass gains alongside resistance training. The effect is well-replicated and applies to women, not just men.
Cognition & energy
The brain uses creatine for energy. Studies link supplementation to better performance on demanding mental tasks, especially under fatigue or sleep deprivation.
Longevity & bone density
Emerging research points to benefits for muscle and bone maintenance with age — relevant through perimenopause and beyond, when lean mass is harder to hold.
Muscle retention on a GLP-1
Rapid weight loss can cost lean muscle. Pairing creatine with resistance training is a practical lever to help protect it during a GLP-1 protocol.
