The Claim
Creatine supplementation may enhance memory performance in healthy individuals under non-stressed conditions, but it does not improve memory performance under conditions of physiological stress such as sleep deprivation, hypoxia, or exhaustive exercise.
What the research says
Challenges is higher
Challenge is ahead, but a single strong supporting study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
Taking creatine might help you remember things better when you're well-rested and calm, but it won't help if you're exhausted, sleep-deprived, or at high altitude.

Creatine supplementation may improve memory performance in healthy individuals under non-stressed conditions, but not under conditions of physiological stress such as sleep deprivation, hypoxia, or exhaustive exercise.
What the research says
1 studyThe study found that taking creatine helps healthy people remember better, but it didn’t test people who are tired, at high altitudes, or exhausted — so we don’t know if it works the same under those stressful conditions.
