#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.

So older adults.

So aging is kind of a stress, brain aging.

So older adults seem to benefit from taking exogenous creatine or supplemental creatine and people that are sleep deprived.

That's another one that's a really big one.

The Peter Attia Drive

In fact, there's been a few studies that have shown people that are sleep deprived, if you give them, this was on a per kilogram body weight basis.

So I think total, it was like 20 to 25 grams of creatine that were given just based on their body weight.

But if they were sleep deprived and given that creatine, not only did the cognitive deficits that usually occur when you're sleep deprived not occur, but their cognitive processing speed was improved more than baseline.

Now, this is a small study.

If you, Peter, were to go to the study and look at this, you'd be like, this is a small study.

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.

And I agree.

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.

We can't just hang our hat on this one study.

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.

Darren Kandow is someone who he's getting into the brain stuff.

I think there's quite a few people that have been doing muscle research who are now it's opening doors for them where they're like collaborating and they're reaching out to like people that are doing more neuroscience.

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.

And it's kind of exploded.

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.

That's a really good point.

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 totally does.

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.

So there was like a pilot study that came out.

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.

And these are researchers that I don't know necessarily.

And some of them are pretty junior.
