That's the hardest thing to study.

The Peter Attia Drive

If the placebo is working for you, take it.

But if you aren't in this state of jet lag, 10 grams per day, you do two shots of five and you're feeling great.

The Peter Attia Drive
#369 โ€’ Rethinking protein needs for performance, muscle preservation, and longevity, and the mental and physical benefits of creatine supplementation and sauna use | Rhonda Patrick, Ph.D.

Yeah, lots of brands are using it.
