Linking dietary creatine to DNA methylation-based predictors of mortality in individuals aged 50 and above.
Abstract
Creatine is a conditionally essential nutrient integral to cellular energy homeostasis, with emerging evidence suggesting its potential role in modulating biological aging. However, associations between dietary creatine intake and epigenetic biomarkers of mortality remain unexplored.

Research summary
The paper investigates the relationship between dietary creatine intake and DNA methylation-based predictors of mortality in older adults. This research is relevant as it explores a potential dietary intervention that could influence biological aging and mortality, addressing root causes rather than merely treating symptoms.
