💪 CREATINE: It’s Not Just for Muscle

Creatine is one of the most researched supplements in the world. Most people know it for improving strength and exercise performance—but its benefits may extend well beyond the gym and finally research and the general population is beginning to understand these benefits.

What creatine does:
⚡ Helps replenish ATP—your cells’ rapid energy source
💪 Supports strength, power, and lean muscle gains with resistance training
🧠 Supports brain energy and cognitive function
🧠 May improve memory, particularly in certain populations or when brain energy demands are higher, crucial to the aging brain
😴 May help reduce some of the cognitive effects of sleep deprivation (use 10-20grams with caffeine in the AM for sleep deprivation)
👵 Emerging research suggests potential benefits for healthy brain aging

Why?
Your muscles AND your brain require a tremendous amount of energy. Creatine helps maintain the cellular energy system and is crucial to the ATP system.

That’s why I don’t think of creatine as simply a “muscle supplement.”

Think of it as a cellular energy supplement.

And as we age, maintaining muscle, strength, and brain health becomes even more important.

Simple. Affordable. Well-researched.

Creatine deserves a conversation beyond the weight room.

Sleep Tips from Dr. B!! Here is was what I wrote down a few years ago, with my own brain, with a pen, in a notebook, yes real handwriting, and then used the power of AI today to make this wonderful post.
Sleep Well!!!!

Quality sleep is one of the foundations of recovery, energy, performance, and overall health.

Here are a few simple ways to improve it:

🌙 Aim for 7–9 hours each night—but remember, quality matters too.

⏰ Keep a consistent schedule. Try to go to bed and wake up around the same time each day.

📱 Give yourself a 30-minute wind-down. Put away the phone, reduce stimulation, read, listen to music, or simply relax.

💡 Dim the lights at night. Your circadian rhythm responds to light. Less bright light in the evening helps signal that it’s time for sleep.

❄️ Keep the bedroom cool, dark & quiet.

☕ Watch the caffeine. Caffeine can affect sleep many hours after you drink it—even if you can still fall asleep.

🍷 Limit alcohol. It may make you sleepy initially, but it can disrupt sleep quality later in the night.

🛏️ Use your bed for sleep. If you’re lying awake for a long time, get up, do something quiet in low light, and return when sleepy.

🔥 Try a warm shower or bath before bed. The change in body temperature afterward may help support the natural transition toward sleep.

And one people often overlook:

A bad night of sleep doesn’t have to ruin the next day. Avoid trying to “fix” it with a long nap. Get back to your normal routine and give your body another opportunity for quality sleep that night.

Better sleep → Better recovery → Better performance → Better health.

Two products that are game changers for brain health and stress management. Taurine is an incredible amino acid that is not only affordable, but helps so many bodily processes. It’s great for blood pressure management, I love it for its general, relaxing effect just calming my brain down. Sensitol is inositol in two forms, they can help with blood sugar support, neurotransmitter health meaning it’ll help calm your brain, brain and anxiety, and can also help with sugar cravings somewhat. I typically take both in the afternoon and evening to help me unwind from busy days. Click the link in my bio use code BEWELL for 15% off.

Sleep is the single biggest variable that impacts every other health and performance goal. It signals your hormones in a positive or negative direction — too little or poor-quality sleep disrupts them all. Want to lose body fat, raise testosterone, improve focus, and reduce brain fog, improve sleep.
5 easy steps to improve sleep
-Be consistent — go to bed and wake within about an hour every day. Consistency optimizes both nighttime recovery hormones and daytime focus.
-Cool room — cooler is better. If you run hot, consider to help lower body temp and boost deep sleep.
-Make it a cave — no lights, no TV. Use blackout curtains and a sound machine if you’re a light sleeper.
-Ditch screens — read a book instead. Screens stimulate the brain and delay sleep onset.
-Build a habit — do the same pre-bed routine every night (even when traveling): dim lights, cool room, calming activity.
Consistency is the game changer, give it a month of steady habits and you’ll notice better sleep and recovery.
Shift workers: stick to a repeatable routine on your days off and home days. Supplements may help shift workers more, but routine and environment are still most important.

Good article from my colleague Simone Fortier explaining the symbiotic relationship the high performance athlete needs in order to perform optimally. Not one discipline in the management of an athlete is more important than the other, and when one of the cogs of the performance wheel is missing, re-injury or a decrease in performance will occur. The fascia system of the body helps those “wheels” to stay balanced and when treated properly, performance will be maximized, especially when each of these disciplines mentioned works together.

Sleep is the foundation to optimal health, and sleep quality is just as important as quantity. For many years I could not figure out why my deep sleep numbers were subpar, I was checking most of the boxes for optimal sleep but still my sleep quality was struggling. That’s when I started to wonder if perhaps I was sleeping “hotter” than optimal affecting my deep sleep.
While researching options for a cooler sleep environment I stumbled upon the Chilipad by Sleepme and haven’t looked back! My deep sleep increased from 30-45 minutes to +90min improving the quality dramatically. It’s been 6 years now and I can say it’s the best investment I have made in my sleep and healthy lifestyle.
