Creatine might be the most underrated biohack hiding in plain sight

Biohacking gets weird fast. People will spend hundreds on new compounds and devices while ignoring creatine because it feels too basic.

Most people associate it with strength and muscle, but the conversation around cognition, aging, recovery and periods of high mental demand is what interests me now.

The funny part is that creatine is cheap, widely studied and boring. That might be exactly why it gets less attention than the exotic stuff.

For people who have used it consistently, did you notice anything beyond gym performance? Any change in cognition, fatigue, recovery or mood? Did the scale increase bother you, and was the effect obvious or something you only noticed in your training data?

What’s the most effective “boring” biohack you think people overlook?
