Why Creatine, Nicotine & Binaural Beats Are Trending | In Vivo with Dr. Brandon Luu | Ep. 21
In VivoShow Notes
I spoke with Dr. Brandon Luu, an Internal medicine–trained Medical Doctor currently specializing in Respirology, as he breaks down the science behind creatine, nicotine, and binaural beats. Discover why these three are buzzing in fitness, cognitive enhancement, and sleep deprivation circles. From boosting muscle strength to enhancing focus during, Dr. Luu shares evidence-based insights and personal experiments he tried durring his 26 hr residency shifts. Learn how creatine supports ATP regeneration, why nicotine (in controlled forms like gum) might sharpen attention, and how binaural beats could improve memory by up to 30%. Plus, get practical tips for students and professionals on optimizing performance while prioritizing health.

Philosopher and historian of science Dr. Justin Garson joins me to unpack The Madness Pill: One Doctor’s Quest to Understand Schizophrenia, the mid-century hunt for a pill that could temporarily induce schizophrenia so scientists could reverse-engineer a cure.
Dr. Jason Kelly, co-founder and CEO of Ginkgo Bioworks, joins me to unpack autonomous labs, what they are, why biology’s bench tooling barely moved in 20 years, and why the right analogy isn’t a subway or a car, but a Waymo. Is the biology singularity around the corner?
Cathy Tie (founder, Origin Genomics) and Prof. Jiang Xueqin (Predictive History) join me for a wide-open conversation on germline gene editing, the science, the ethics, and the geopolitics.
Jason Verbelli, founder of Galilean Variance and CEO/Lead Engineer at SEG Magnetics, argues that Einstein left a written test for his own theory: if the speed of light depends even a little on the motion of the source, relativity and Einstein’s theory of gravitation are false. In this interview we start from first principles and work up through John Searl, magnetic waveforms, free energy vs over-unity, the double-slit experiments, the Casimir effect, and what that would mean for energy, technology, and space travel.
In this episode of In Vivo, I sit down with Dr. Rasmus Rosenberg Larsen, Assistant Professor of Forensic Epistemology at the University of Toronto and author of Psychopathy Unmasked: The Rise and Fall of a Dangerous Diagnosis (MIT Press).
