That doesn't make creatine useless for women.
podcast-host
Quite the contrary, I think that it is very useful.

Women still

See real strength gains, particularly upper body strength and grip, along with benefits for cognition, mood, and recovery.

So the difference comes down to biology and to the evidence itself, but it could just simply be that men have more muscle tissue to store creatine in.
podcast-host
And most creatine research has been done in men.
podcast-host
So the data in women
podcast-host
Is still catching up.

But I think that what we're ultimately going to find is that it is related to a baseline in lean mass.

Some groups

Also respond more than others.

Now, there was a period of time where I was vegan, yes, and vegetarian, and vegan vegetarians eat essentially no dietary creatine.
podcast-host
So their baseline muscle stores sit lower.
podcast-host
When they supplement, they get a larger jump in muscle phosphocreatine and a larger jump in cognitive performance than, say, someone who's already eating a higher creatine diet.
podcast-host
Older adults.
podcast-host
Older adults show the greatest phosphocreatine response of all.
podcast-host
Aging muscle takes up creatine readily.
podcast-host
And when you pair it with resistance training, the literature points to meaningful effects on sarcopenia, bone density, and potential fragility.
podcast-host
Sleep deprivation.
