Ep 20 // Why Women Should Take Creatine Daily

If you’re a woman in your 40s, perimenopause, or menopause, creatine might just be the most important supplement you’re not taking yet.

In this episode of The Energized Lifestyle Podcast, we dive deep into the science-backed reasons why creatine for women over 40 is a game-changer for strength, energy, bone health, and hormonal balance.

Creatine is often marketed to young male athletes, but research now shows it offers unique benefits for midlife women—especially during the hormonal changes of perimenopause and menopause.

We break down how daily creatine supplementation can:

• Support muscle preservation and metabolism when estrogen declines

• Improve bone density and reduce risk of age-related muscle loss

• Enhance cognitive function and memory

• Boost training performance and workout recovery

• Support mood stability and overall vitality during midlife

We also discuss exactly how much creatine women should take, the safest and most effective form (creatine monohydrate), and how to incorporate it into your daily wellness routine—whether or not you’re an athlete.

Plus, we highlight a recent systematic review looking specifically at creatine supplementation in active females, including women in perimenopause and menopause.
