I'm breaking down everything you need to know about creatine - the game-changing supplement that's not just for bodybuilders anymore. As women over 40, we're dealing with changing metabolism, declining muscle mass, and energy dips that can make us feel like we're fighting an uphill battle. But here's what I've discovered: creatine isn't just about gym performance. It's your cellular battery booster that can sharpen your brain when you're sleep-deprived, help you recover faster from workouts, and even ease jet lag struggles. I'm sharing why I wish I'd started taking it decades ago, the crucial difference between creatine HCL and monohydrate (hint: one causes bloating, the other doesn't), and exactly how to dose it for maximum benefits without the side effects. Plus, I'm revealing my personal protocol for high-stress days, travel, and those nights when sleep just doesn't happen - because let's be real, life after 40 throws us curveballs and we need our energy to keep up.
