What it does
Creatine is best known for muscle, but it's just as important for the brain: both rely on it as a rapid-recharge energy source. Research increasingly shows it can support memory and processing speed, especially when you're sleep-deprived, aging, or eat little meat. It's one of the most studied and well-tolerated supplements there is.
The science
A heavily researched compound that recycles cellular ATP energy, critical not only for physical muscle retention but for maintaining high-level cognitive sharpness under stress.
Most relevant for
Mental and physical energy, plant-based eaters, and adults focused on healthy aging.
