The podcast talks about the effects of health promoting and performance enhancing protocols like morning sunlight, endurance exercise, creatine, and sleep. The host also talks about non-hormonal-based supplements that can improve energy or physical performance and longevity.
This episode discusses the benefits of non-hormonal-based supplements to enhance muscle growth and fat loss, improve energy and physical performance, and promote longevity. Creatine monohydrate is highlighted as a supplement with numerous potential benefits, such as aiding in muscle recovery and fat loss.
The phosphocreatine system is important for both muscle size and strength and forebrain function, which involves planning, action, setting rules, and context in the prefrontal cortex. While there's no clear way to test the direct effects on cognitive function, the literature shows the vital importance of phosphocreatine for various brain functions.
The use of people's health protocols and performance-enhancing solutions can have immediate effects on one's physical and mental state. For example, studies show that creatine and a good night's sleep can help with sleep deprivation.
Today, the discussion distinguishes between the often misunderstood chronic and acute effects, where they're two different things having acute effects within 30 minutes to four hours while being short-lived, and 'chronic' in this context regarding supplements, behaviors, and nutrition is when it's done consistently over time (80% of the time).
