Creatine for muscle loss in older adults
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests whether taking creatine HCl can help older adults with muscle loss (sarcopenia) improve muscle strength. If you are over 60 and have weak grip strength, this study might be for you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
