Key Takeaways
- Increase creatine dose to 10g daily for brain benefits (standard 5g only saturates muscles).
- Take 25g creatine when sleep-deprived to preserve reaction time and decision-making.
- Sleep deprivation makes your brain more receptive to creatine by opening the blood-brain barrier.
Supplements & Protocols Mentioned
- Creatine: 10g/day for general brain benefits, 25g/day during sleep deprivation.
Notable Quotes
“Your brain only gets what’s left over [from muscle absorption].”
“When you’re exhausted, your brain actually becomes more receptive to creatine.”
Bottom Line
Double your creatine intake (10g/day) for cognitive benefits, and triple it (25g) during sleep deprivation to counteract mental decline.
