An ER Doctor Explains In this last video I talked about some reasons to consider creatine supplementation… after the age of 50. And judging from the of comments… many of you in your 50s, 60s and 70s… are already using it. But there’s been a lot of talk lately online… about mega-dosing with creatine. Not just taking the standard… 3 to 5 grams that most of us know about… But…people talking about taking10, 20, 30, sometimes even 40 grams of creatine a day. And what’s interesting is… they’re not talking about this for muscle-building — They’re talking about it for memory, for brain fog, for pushing through fatigue, even for surviving on very little sleep. Now… I’m an ER doctor with a background in fitness and weight-management… or bariatric medicine as it’s called… So I’ve seen creatine from a few different angles. I’ve read the research… And I’ve seen what people are doing in the real world... I also began using creatine myself, in the late 90’s… Participating in Bill Phillip’s Body For Life program… So I have a perspective which comes from that background. So in this video, I want to talk about: • What mega-dosing creatine actually means. • Why people are trying it. • What the research shows so far. • Potential risks or downsides of mega-dosing • And then I’ll give you my thoughts on whether I think it’s worth it, or not… ________________________________________ But First, let me clarify the terminology… When you hear “mega-dosing,” for some people, they’re actually talking about the creatine loading phase. Where you take 20 grams of creatine a day, usually split into four doses, for about five to seven days, with the goal of saturating your muscles with creatine quickly. Now…after that, most people drop down to around 3 to 5 grams per day… as a maintenance dose. That’s a typical fitness or bodybuilding approach… To taking creatine. That’s been around for decades, And…it’s been studied a lot. But…when ‘I say’ mega-dosing in this video, I’m talking about people who consistently take 20 or 30 grams of creatine Every. Single. day — And, sometimes even more… not just for a week, but for weeks or months at a time. And That’s the type of creatine dosing… that’s getting attention online, especially for brain benefits… and combating fatigue. ________________________________________ So why would anyone want to take that much creatine? Well…Here are the big reasons being touted: Number 1: Brain Health & Optimization. About 95% of creatine is stored in our skeletal muscle… But our brains store creatine as well. The body makes about a gram of creatine daily… That’s not very much… But the body obviously prizes creatine enough to produce it… Or it wouldn’t make at all. So supplemental creatine gives your brain something it already craves & thrives on. But with mega-dosing… what creatine doesn’t get consumed by our skeletal muscle… Becomes available as an energy buffer for the brain… using creatine to function more efficiently, from an energy standpoint… just like our muscles do. And there are small studies suggesting that creatine supplementation… can help with memory and cognitive function, especially in people who are sleep-deprived or in vegans & vegetarians… who start off with lower creatine levels to begin with. And there are lots of people, particularly online… reporting increases in mental clarity & sharpness., Typically taking doses in the range of 15 to 25 grams of creatine per day. And though uptake of creatine to the brain tends to be somewhat slower than uptake by the muscles… #creatineafter50 #creatinedosage #megadosingcreatine #creatinebenefitsolderadults #doctorexplainscreatine #creatineover50 #creatineforwomen #creatinemonohydrate #creatinebenefits 💥 Thanks for watching! ▶️ Start here: Creatine After 50? 👉    • Creatine After 50...? An ER Doctor Explains   ▶️ Then watch: Mega-Dosing Creatine After 50? 👉   • Mega-Dosing Creatine After 50?  An ER Doct...   ▶️ Creatine + Protein After 50? 👉    • Creatine + Protein After 50?   An ER Docto...   ▶️ And now Part 4: Does Creatine Damage Your Kidneys? 👉    • Does Creatine Damage the Kidneys?  An ER D...   🛒 My Supplement Line: https://www.DoctorsSupplementPortal.com Disclosure: I am the founder of this supplement brand and have a financial interest in this business.
