The impact of creatine levels on musculoskeletal health in the elderly: a mendelian randomization analysis

This study provides preliminary evidence indicating a link between creatine levels and decreased hand grip strength among the elderly, notably in individuals aged 60 and older. This finding is significant for understanding the potential impact of creatine supplementation on elderly Musculoskeletal health and underscores the need for evidence-based decision-making in nutritional supplementation. To robustly validate these observations, it is essential to conduct future randomized controlled trials with large sample sizes.

Abstract

This study provides preliminary evidence indicating a link between creatine levels and decreased hand grip strength among the elderly, notably in individuals aged 60 and older. This finding is significant for understanding the potential impact of creatine supplementation on elderly Musculoskeletal health and underscores the need for evidence-based decision-making in nutritional supplementation. To robustly validate these observations, it is essential to conduct future randomized controlled trials with large sample sizes.
