Effects on sleep-deprived adults<\/p>\n
The buzz stems from a 2024 placebo-controlled trial where researchers tested creatine’s effects on sleep-deprived young adults.<\/p>\n
Participants, after staying awake for 21 hours, downed about 20 grams of creatine monohydrate (roughly 0.35 grams per kilogram of body weight).\u00a0<\/p>\n
Using advanced brain scans like MR spectroscopy, the team tracked changes in cerebral energy reserves and cognitive performance at multiple intervals, according to a study published in Nature.<\/p>\n
Buzz among cancer survivors<\/p>\n
Creatine has also kicked up some buzz among cancer survivors:\u00a0The group posted that this familiar gym supplement could help fight cancer. <\/p>\n
How? They point to results of a new study which suggests creatine may strengthen key immune cells involved in attacking tumours, opening the door to future cancer therapies.<\/p>\n
Could it redefine productivity?<\/p>\n
More trials are needed, but early data hints at a simple, accessible tool for sharper minds amid modern chaos. <\/p>\n
In an era of “biohacking”, this might just be the edge we’ve been craving. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Effects on sleep-deprived adults The buzz stems from a 2024 placebo-controlled trial where researchers tested creatine’s effects on…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":561999,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[103,61,60,446],"class_list":["post-561998","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nutrition","tag-health","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-nutrition"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/561998","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=561998"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/561998\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/561999"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=561998"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=561998"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=561998"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
