Should women aged 18 to 60 take creatine for health, not just fitness? This segment examines a recent systematic review synthesizing 153 studies from the health research world, concluding that women 18 to 60 may benefit from 3 to 5 grams of creatine daily to help optimize overall health. Stacy Sims breaks down where the evidence is leaning, plus when higher doses might be used in specific situations like shift work or jet lag, and why the baseline recommendation still sits at 3 to 5 grams for fast energetics and support for mood, heart, and brain health.
