Creatine is supposedly good for cognitive performance, at least that's what I took from a couple of youtube videos I watched.


Creatine might not be without risks. Search for creatine withrawal symptoms. Some people are wrecked for months when they quit the supplement. I tried one cycle of 4 weeks and quit cold turkey and had a crash/depressive episode unlike i ever experienced before for about 7 days. I did like the benefits, it provided me resitance to mental fatigue. Roughly i'd say i experienced a "+30% boost", significant!


From what I understand, it increases ATP availability for neurons, which acts as the "energy to your brain"
