Key Moments
Most people take creatine the wrong way
Dave Asprey explains that muscle loss starts in your 30s and triggers everything bad about aging, but most people take creatine incorrectly. The key is phosphocreatine conversion, which requires magnesium and sea salt as cofactors.
"Do you want bigger muscles or a bigger brain? Well, most people want both, which is why they take creatine, sadly they take it the wrong way and miss out on both."
Phosphocreatine conversion is the key to creatine effectiveness
Dave explains that your cells need phosphocreatine for immediate energy, and your body must convert normal creatine into this usable form. Magnesium helps this conversion while sea salt shuttles creatine through cell walls.
"Good news, you can take creatine, but most people take creatine the wrong way. Your cells need phosphocratine for immediate energy during exercise and middle work, and your body has to convert normal creatine into phosphocratine in order to use it."
