I don't think it matters much when you take the creatine. I take mine with my whey protein shake. It is important to take the creatine once per day. Do it when it is convenient for you.

doesnt matter, once u reach ur saturation point with creatine thats that.

You can take it with or without the protein, it really doesn't make a difference at all.

yazf909 · 10-01-2006, 07:53 PM

alright thanks

navarone · 10-01-2006, 10:23 PM

Why was i told not to mix it with the protien then??

You can mix it with protein but it isn't necessary. Just easier.

thats what i figured, but i was told to take creatine and my protien seperate. Well at least now i can save some time! thanks!

yazf909 · 10-01-2006, 11:59 PM

ok, so mixing with protien is a no no then

navarone · 10-02-2006, 12:47 AM

yazf909 · 10-02-2006, 01:48 AM

i dont mean its terrible to mix it just sounds like i should do them seperate to get maximum results?

Better results = taking creatine w/ a simple carb for the insulin response.

it doesnt matter if u take it with protein or not. i dont believe taking it with carbs is gonna do much better either.

simple carbs spike the insulin and help transport creatine and protien more effecielty to the muscle cells. research it
