Peer-Reviewed Research
Key Takeaways
- Megadose creatine at 0.2g/kg (e.g., 16g for an 80kg person) to reduce cognitive decline after severe sleep deprivation.
- For even greater cognitive benefits under sleep deprivation, consider a higher creatine dose of 0.35g/kg (e.g., 28g for an 80kg person).
- Use creatine primarily as a recovery aid for cognition after high stress or sleep deprivation, not as a daily brain boost.
Supplements & Protocols Mentioned
- Creatine: Dose of 0.2g/kg (e.g., 16g for an 80kg person) for cognitive recovery after sleep deprivation.
- Creatine: Higher dose of 0.35g/kg (e.g., 28g for an 80kg person) for enhanced cognitive benefits under sleep deprivation.
Bottom Line
Megadose creatine (16g or 28g for an 80kg person) during periods of sleep deprivation or high cognitive stress to help recover cognitive performance, but avoid relying on it for daily brain enhancement.
