ImpactModerate impact

There is a recognition of the publication's significance, with mentions of potential benefits for conditions like TBI and neurodegenerative diseases, suggesting perceived high impact.

Abstract in brief

  • Creatine has been shown to have neuroprotective effects in both laboratory (in vitro) and living organism (in vivo) studies, protecting neurons from toxins and excitotoxicity.
  • In animal models, creatine helps reduce neuron loss, improve motor functions, and extend survival, especially in diseases like ALS and Huntington's, even when treatment starts after symptoms appear.
  • Combining creatine with coenzyme Q10 enhances its neuroprotective effects, reducing toxin-induced brain damage and preventing protein aggregations linked to neurodegenerative diseases.

@AJA_Cortes I was always the same, creatine non-responder while I watched some people get solid results. I recently started taking it again, not as a workout supplement, but because it may have neuroprotective benefits. https://t.co/jWJacyextF.
