    34. Back to basics- Creatine

    Welcome back to the Steps with Nutrition Podcast! In today’s episode, we’re diving into the fascinating world of creatine — a compound often associated with athletes and performance, but with benefits that extend far beyond the gym. We’ll explore what creatine is, how it works in the body, and why it’s gaining attention not only in sports nutrition but also in women’s health. Drawing on the review “Creatine for women: a review of the relationship between creatine and the reproductive cycle and female‑specific benefits of creatine therapy” by Ellery, Walker, and Dickinson (2015), we’ll unpack the science behind creatine’s role across different life stages, and highlight its potential therapeutic applications. Whether you’re curious about supplementation basics or interested in the latest evidence on female‑specific benefits, this episode will give you a clear, practical foundation to understand creatine’s place in nutrition and health.
