Summary

Dr. Dan Pardi — sleep researcher, neuroscientist, and Chief Health Officer at Qualia Life — breaks down the science of creatine that most women have never been told: why estrogen directly controls how well your cells absorb it, what three studies show it can do for a sleep-deprived brain, and how to actually start taking it without the bloating, the kidney fears, or the confusion.
