Creatine Cognition Sleep Deprivation Randomized TrialThere is some evidence that creatine supplementation improves outcome measures in those with muscular dystrophy but not other neurological diseases or conditions such as Parkinson’s disease or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.3Candow Darren G. (2023)“Heads Up” for Creatine Supplementation and its Potential Applications for Brain Health and Function
Creatine Cognition Sleep Deprivation Randomized TrialThe vast majority of evidence-based research has focused on the efficacy of creatine monohydrate and exercise (primarily resistance-type training) for improving measures of muscle/lean mass, muscle performance (including strength, endurance, and power), and recovery from sport or exercise in young healthy male adults [].3Candow Darren G. (2023)“Heads Up” for Creatine Supplementation and its Potential Applications for Brain Health and Function
Creatine Cognition Sleep Deprivation Randomized TrialThere is evidence that high-dose creatine supplementation (e.g., ≥ 20 g/day) can yield increases in creatine levels in the brain over periods of several weeks and perhaps overcome a reduction in endogenous creatine synthesis inside the CNS [], but the replenishment of the brain creatine pool is still slow and limited [].3Candow Darren G. (2023)“Heads Up” for Creatine Supplementation and its Potential Applications for Brain Health and Function
Creatine Cognition Sleep Deprivation Randomized TrialCreatine supplementation can improve cognition and memory, especially in older adults or during times of metabolic stress (i.e., sleep deprivation).3Candow Darren G. (2023)“Heads Up” for Creatine Supplementation and its Potential Applications for Brain Health and Function
Creatine Cognition Sleep Deprivation Randomized TrialCreatine, a nitrogenous organic compound derived from reactions involving the amino acids arginine, glycine, and methionine, is important for resynthesizing ATP, particularly during times of increased metabolic demand (e.g., sleep deprivation, mental health conditions, or neurological diseases) [,,].3Forbes Scott C. (2022)Effects of Creatine Supplementation on Brain Function and Health
Creatine Cognition Sleep Deprivation Randomized Trial[] demonstrated increased muscle creatine levels following oral creatine monohydrate supplementation.3Forbes Scott C. (2022)Effects of Creatine Supplementation on Brain Function and Health
Creatine Cognition Sleep Deprivation Randomized TrialIntramuscular creatine levels can be further increased when creatine monohydrate ingestion is combined with exercise [,], insulin [], carbohydrate [], carbohydrate and protein [], or lipoic acid [].3Forbes Scott C.
