  • By keeping up your strength training, eating a healthy diet, and even choosing the right supplements, you can stay stronger for longer. In fact, new research shows that magnesium is a common supplement that can do just that.

The study emphasizes that while creatine is well-known in the sports community, its broader health benefits, especially in aging populations, are significant and warrant further exploration.
