Mindsip insights from this episode:
Recognize polyphenols in coffee and tea for caffeine's health benefits
The health benefits attributed to caffeine may actually come from other molecules consumed with it, like the polyphenols in coffee and tea.
Obtain omega-3s from algae-based supplements
If you don't eat fish, you can get beneficial omega-3s from algae-based supplements.
Recognize whey protein's role in overall protein intake, not magic
Whey protein's benefits for body composition are likely due to simply increasing your intake of protein, the most satiating nutrient, rather than any unique property of whey itself.
Debunk creatine hair loss myth with evidence-based insights
The belief that creatine causes hair loss stems from a single, unreplicated 2009 study that only showed an increase in DHT, not actual hair loss.
Consume 300 to 600 milligrams of caffeine for strength benefits
To get acute strength benefits from caffeine for exercise, you may need a high dose of 300 to 600 milligrams.
Increase creatine dosage for enhanced cognitive benefits
While 5 grams of creatine is standard for muscle, doses of 10 grams or more may offer additional cognitive benefits.
