Summary
This study looked at whether taking creatine supplements and doing muscle stretching exercises could help people with peripheral artery disease (PAD) walk longer distances. PAD causes leg pain due to poor blood flow. Thirteen adults with PAD took part in a 4-week program of stretching, with some also taking creatine. The main goal was to see if these treatments improved walking distance in a 6-minute walk test.
