It's the episode you have all been waiting for! In this podcast episode, host Sheridan Skye introduces her guest, Dr Stacey Ellery, a biomedical researcher from Monash University specialising in pre and postnatal women's health and creatine supplementation. As a researcher, Dr Ellery was well aware of the theory that supplementing the mother’s natural creatine intake improves the likelihood of conceiving and delivering a healthy baby. But when she was starting a family, the academic became personal. The health of her unborn baby was her primary concern, so Dr Ellery turned to science to help decide whether creatine supplementation during pregnancy was the right choice and today she is sharing that information with us.
