5. Creatine

Huberman has taken creatine since he was 17–18.

He takes 5–10g/day.

It helps him maintain/build strength, and he says it can enhance cognition when you're sleep-deprived or stressed.

His words:

“Creatine seems to work best.”

Andrew Huberman was just asked by Steve Barlett:

“If you could only take 5 supplements for the rest of your life, what would they be?”.

Here’s what he picked:

1. Magnesium

4. Alpha-GPC

Huberman takes 600–900 mg.

It increases choline → acetylcholine → which can increase focus.

His big reason:

Very few things increase focus and energy without hurting sleep.

He says Alpha-GPC can actually increase REM sleep.

If I could only recommend two supplements for the rest of my career, these would make the list.

1. Magnesium glycinate.
