Creatine Supplement Shows Promise in Alzheimer's Treatment, Study Finds
Recent research has highlighted the potential of creatine, a common gym supplement, as a promising treatment for Alzheimer's disease. A pilot study published in Alzheimer's & Dementia: Translational Research & Clinical Interventions found that Alzheimer's patients who consumed 20 grams of creatine monohydrate daily experienced an 11% increase in total brain creatine levels. This biochemical change was associated with improvements in cognitive functions such as working memory, attention, and executive functioning. Neurophysiologist Louisa Nichola, speaking on The Diary of a CEO podcast, emphasized the benefits of creatine, noting its potential to enhance both physical and neurophysiological well-being. Creatine is known for boosting cellular energy by increasing phosphocreatine levels, which aids in regenerating ATP, the body's main energy molecule.
