Brain health isn’t one-size-fits-all—especially during life transitions like menopause.

At Braincare Carlsbad, we believe in supporting your brain as a whole, not just with advanced treatments like TMS and MeRT, but through therapy, sleep, nutrition, and hormonal balance. That’s why we’re sharing surprising research on a little-known brain booster for women in midlife: creatine.

Creatine isn’t just for bodybuilders; it plays a key role in brain energy, memory, and mood. And during menopause, when estrogen drops, creatine might offer real cognitive support.

🧠 Read our full blog post to learn more about how your brain changes during menopause, and how you can support it naturally:
