The Peter Attia Drive
#369 β€’ 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.

Awesome.

Does the type of meat matter?

Does fish versus beef versus chicken?

The Peter Attia Drive
#369 β€’ 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.

I would imagine there are differences.

And do you have a sense of if you eat a 12 ounce steak, how many grams of creatine would you get in there?

Additional.

So you've got your endogenous plus.

Hence the bros that were telling me to take 30 when I was 13.

That might have been overkill.

The Peter Attia Drive

And our thinking today is just take five every day and then you should be all right.

The Peter Attia Drive
#369 β€’ 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.

Yep.

The Peter Attia Drive
#369 β€’ 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.

You have to do the work.

The Peter Attia Drive
#369 β€’ 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.

You felt like you got all in because you actually felt a difference or you were like, well, look, I'm already taking it for these muscle purposes.

The Peter Attia Drive
#369 β€’ 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.

Let me really now go deeper on the cognitive science.

The Peter Attia Drive
#369 β€’ 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.

It is a little odd.

The Peter Attia Drive

There aren't that many things that show up where the consistency of the studies is always in the same direction.

The Peter Attia Drive

And really what you're basically looking at is the magnitude or the effect size, but you're always on the same side of the tornado plot.

The Peter Attia Drive
#369 β€’ 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.

Let's talk about some of the measurements.

The Peter Attia Drive
#369 β€’ 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.

I think one of the advantages of studying the effects of creatine on physical performance is we have really good objective measurements that you can demonstrate in a short period of time.

The Peter Attia Drive
#369 β€’ 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.

You can do a 12-week study, and in just 12 weeks, you could objectively, unambiguously determine if there was hypertrophy and if there was an increase in performance.
