But there was one that came out with people with Alzheimer's disease.

And they were given 20 grams of creatine and it improved cognitive function in these patients with Alzheimer's disease.

I think there was also placebo control as well.

And then they took those same patients and then had them exercise and improved strength and improved lean body mass.

Totally.

Prevention is the name of the game for sure.

100%.

Unfortunately, there's a lot of people's parents out there that have it right now because they missed the boat on prevention, right?

Those people are obviously their kids are willing to do anything to help them.

It's terrible, right?

I think the reality here and the point I want to make is I think that creatine for the brain is the most interesting aspect of this area of research right now, at least for me.

I certainly think that there's really no downside to doing 10 grams a day.

Now, in some cases, sleep deprivation, like I just got back from China about five days ago.

I've been like doing 20 grams a day, 15 to 20.

In one dose, it would probably affect a lot of people's GI.

I do five gram doses.

And you'll just put the five grams into water and... I'd put the five grams into water or like tea and then I just take it like that.

And I do it mostly before noon.

I don't know if this is placebo, but I don't get sleepy in the afternoon anymore.

If I only get five grams, I get the sleepiness.
