- Aerroon 1y agoThat's a bizarre coincidence. For the past few days I've run across a bunch of accounts of people taking more creatine than suggested (10-20g a day). They seem to all talk about how it makes them work better during sleep deprivation. So the answer seems like it helps.
- rafaelmn 1y agoI mean there are studies that show this as well. Not the improved sleep, but help in sleep deprivation scenarios
- kridsdale1 1y agoIt’s a rational expectation. Improves phosphate transport for more efficient or unbottlenecked ATP synthesis. Everyone should use creatine. It’s not just for bros.

- jayunit 1y agoI’ve seen some social media posts in the last week by Rhonda Patrick discussing 20g/day for cognitive benefits. Can’t find that post, but here is a breakdown of claims from an interview she conducted a few months ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/Supplements/comments/1jo8pk8/my_top_10_takeaways_from_rhonda_patricks_podcast/ https://www.reddit.com/r/Supplements/comments/1jo8pk8/my_top...
- BiteCode_dev 1y agoMy sleep gets worse when I take creatine, so maybe it doesn't improve sleep, but rather helps mitochondria to get by without sleep?
