FAQs
What is creatine?
Creatine is a compound made from three amino acids, glycine, arginine, and methionine. Your body naturally produces a small amount, and you can also get it from foods like red meat, seafood, and chicken. Inside your cells, creatine is converted into phosphocreatine (PCr). A super quick burst of regenerating power supply for ATP, which delivers energy to where you need it the most.
If you're doing a lot of exercise, up to your eyes in stress or have suffered an injury, your body uses creatine (and PCr) very fast. Taking on board more creatine gives the cells more PCr, a bit like giving your body its own fast-charging power pack.
What does creatine do?
Creatine has been well-researched for its benefits among serious gym goers and professional athletes, which explains why most of the data features men, and why the sports industry's marketing has, historically, done the same. We're now learning that women have 70%-80% lower creatine stores than men, and the latest research suggests creatine might help more than just your muscles, including cognition and energy production in the brain
Creatine for the body:
- May support bone health as we age, protecting against osteoporosis, after menopause
- In studies, women who experience sleep deprivation (which is to say, women) have shown improved cognitive performance with creatine supplementation.
- May support metabolism through the energy shifts that can lead to weight fluctuation during perimenopause and beyond (when combined with resistance training)
Creatine for the brain:
- May support brain energy for mood and cognition through hormonal shifts in menstruation and perimenopause.
- Shown to potentially reduce fatigue in exercise during the hormone-dipping luteal phase of menstruation.
Is High Flyer creatine for women?
Men may have been the first in line to take creatine, but the research suggests that it’s women (and our hormones) who actually need it more. We have 70%-80% lower creatine stores than men, likely because we generally eat less meat, the main dietary source of creatine.
For women who don’t eat much meat, and especially for vegans and vegetarians (diets that contain almost no creatine), supplementation can be particularly beneficial.
Does creatine make you gain weight?
The research says no. A meta-analysis of 29 studies found no evidence of weight gain in women taking creatine. Any early shifts in body weight come from water retention (which is temporary). If you're resistance training while taking it, you might find an increase in lean muscle mass. So keep at it!
Who should take creatine?
Creatine isn’t just for (male) gym-goers. While it’s often associated with building muscle, most adults over 18 will find it beneficial. Supplementing creatine increases muscle phosphocreatine (PCr) stores, the fuel your body uses to regenerate ATP, which keeps both your muscles and brain stocked with fuel.
Creatine is one of the safest and most widely researched nutrients, with over 1,000 papers supporting its safety. However, there’s not enough research for children and young people, which is why we recommend creatine for adults only.
Women might benefit most from creatine, as we tend to have lower levels than men. Those who don’t eat much meat, especially vegans and vegetarians (diets that contain almost no creatine), may notice the biggest difference.
Can I take High Flyer if I’m pregnant or breastfeeding?
Creatine is one of the most researched nutrients, and there have been no reported negative effects associated with creatine supplementation during pregnancy, breastfeeding, or in women looking to conceive when taken at regular doses.
Animal studies have shown that creatine can positively affect fetal development, and emerging human research suggests potential benefits for maternal health. So while research indicates that creatine is generally considered safe to take while breastfeeding and during pregnancy, studies specifically examining the effects of creatine tolerability in pregnant, breastfeeding women, or those trying to conceive are still limited and ongoing.
This is why we’d always recommend speaking to your healthcare practitioner first if you have any concerns. You can read more here.

Why Women Need Creatine
It's not all about the gym, bro. Men may have been the first in line to take creatine, but the research suggests that it’s women who actually need it more....
