We’re unlocking new research with creatine! In this episode of Live Foreverish, Dr. Mike and Dr. Crystal welcome Dr. Aaron Smith, a postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Kansas Medical Center, to discuss his pilot study on creatine supplementation in Alzheimer's patients. Dr. Smith explains how creatine supports brain energy metabolism and why its disruption in Alzheimer's makes it a compelling therapeutic target. #LELEARN #EDULFsocial

Aaron is a postdoctoral research fellow in the Department of Dietetics and Nutrition at the University of Kansas Medical Center, where he studies the intersection of nutrition, brain health, skeletal muscle and aging. He coordinates the Creatine to Augment Bioenergetics (CABA) as part of his dissertation research. CABA was the first clinical study to investigate creatine monohydrate supplementation in patients with Alzheimer's disease.
