Mindsip insights from this episode:
Boost oxygen levels to enhance brain energy production
When oxygen levels are low, the mitochondria in your cells cannot generate ATP effectively, starving neurons of the high energy they require to function.
Utilize creatine to enhance neuronal reset speed
By providing energy to the sodium-potassium pumps in neurons, creatine allows the cells to reset faster after firing, enabling them to activate again more quickly.
Reframe creatine as a nootropic for cognitive stress
We should reframe creatine not just from a muscle-centric perspective, but as a nootropic that is especially beneficial in cognitively stressful situations.
Utilize creatine to fuel brain energy without oxygen
Creatine creates an energy reservoir that allows brain cells to regenerate ATP (energy) without needing oxygen, which is crucial when mitochondria can't function properly.
Boost brain excitability under stress with creatine supplementation
In a study where participants were deprived of oxygen, creatine supplementation led to a five-fold increase in the excitability of neurons.
