Note: when I say IQ I'm talking about only the reason making sections similar to Advance Progressive Matrices/Raven Matrices.
There are very few studies showing interventions that increase IQ/Raven Matrices/APM but it seems that among those that do there may be a common mechanism. That mechanism seems to be increased neuronal metabolism.
Creatine has also been shown to increase performance on the Raven Matrices test, for vegetarians and meat eaters alike 1 2. There is some talk about creatine not being a cognitive enhancer for meat-eaters, but its IQ increasing effects have never been refuted only its effects on less demanding tasks. Given creatine seems to be an energy buffer, it seems entirely plausible that it wouldn't affect less intensive tasks. The supposed null result from creatine didn't measure anything related to IQ and was specifically designed to be able to find only the most robust effect, given its tiny sample size 3.
Then there's Ceretrophin™ which…
