Darren G. Candow, Ph.D., CSEP-CEP, is a Professor and world-renowned creatine researcher. He busts myths and breaks down the science behind creatine supplementation - specifically for female bodies. 

In this episode, we discuss evidence-based creatine dosing protocols to minimize unwanted side effects like bloating, and we dive into the impact of creatine on female bone health, muscle mass, endurance improvements in exercise and even brain health. 

Dr. Candow is the Director of the Aging Muscle and Bone Health Laboratory in the Faculty of Kinesiology and Health Studies at the University of Regina, Canada. Dr. Candow’s research program develops effective lifestyle interventions involving creatine monohydrate and resistance training which have practical and clinical relevance for improving muscle, bone and brain health/function.
