Boost Your Brain and Body with Creatine
When most people think of creatine, they picture athletes, gym-goers, and bodybuilders using it to boost strength and performance. But creatine is so much more than a sports supplement—it’s also a powerful ally for brain health and cognitive function.
In this week’s Motivation, Dr. Fletcher shares why creatine deserves a spot in your daily wellness routine.
Why Creatine?
Creatine is a naturally occurring compound in the body that helps produce energy in your cells. While it’s long been known to improve muscle performance and recovery, newer research shows it may also:
- Support memory and learning
- Boost mental clarity and focus
- Protect against age-related cognitive decline
- Reduce inflammation and support overall cellular health
Beyond the Gym
You don’t have to be an athlete to benefit. For many people, creatine can be a simple way to support both body and mind, helping you power through workouts and stay sharp at work or school.
How to Use It
Creatine is most often taken in powder or capsule form. A standard daily dose of 3–5 grams has been shown to be safe and effective for most adults. As always, check with your healthcare provider before adding a new supplement to your routine.
Creatine isn’t just about building strength; it’s about supporting your whole health. From improved workouts to sharper thinking, this daily supplement may be a small step that makes a big difference.
