should women take creatine? a lifespan review in nutrients makes the case that the answer is stronger for women than almost anyone: women carry roughly 70 to 80 percent lower creatine stores than men, and supplementing 3 to 5 grams a day supports strength, training recovery and, in emerging work, mood and cognition. the water weight fear reads overblown in the data. club translation: it is not a bulking powder, it is a battery. club translation two: creatine is one of the most studied supplements on earth, boring in the best possible way. the piggy bank measured a different kind of return.
