Creatine isn’t just for bodybuilders. It’s one of the most overlooked, science-backed nootropics for brain optimization, neuroplasticity, mitochondrial energy, and total human performance. This episode reveals why creatine is a non-negotiable supplement for anyone serious about biohacking, longevity, and cognitive upgrades.
Host Dave Asprey breaks down the myths and truths about creatine, uncovering how it enhances memory, supports your mitochondria, regulates mood, strengthens bones and heart function, and even aids fetal brain development during pregnancy. Drawing from decades of functional medicine, real-world biohacks, and new research featured in the Wall Street Journal, Dave explains how creatine works not only as a muscle booster but as a universal cellular fuel that supports brain benefits, memory improvement, and sleep optimization.
