Creatine Monohydrate (5g)
Creatine is renowned for powering athletic performance, but it also plays a key role in brain energy metabolism. By replenishing ATP—the energy currency of cells—it helps your neurons fire efficiently, supporting memory, focus, and mental stamina.
A landmark double-blind, placebo-controlled trial gave vegetarians 5 g/day of creatine for six weeks and saw significant improvements in both working memory (backwards digit span) and general intelligence (Raven’s Advanced Progressive Matrices).*
