Here's a few i've heard, can you clear them up for me...

-Creatine is ineffective if you mix it with juice

-If you leave it in a drink for more then 5 minutes it dissolves

-Only powdered creatine that says 100% Creapure on it works, the rest aren't that great


also, i'm just wondering, can i mix my creatine in with shakes that have all kinds of other stuff in it? or will it not work as great?

I've always just mixed it in with water,,, tastes like complete shit until you get used to it, and even then it's not very pleasant.

Anyone know the answers to this stuff?

there are studies saying citric acid effects creatine so orange juice might be bad , but grape juice should work just fine , some brands of creatine say 99%pure i hardly think the 1% will be noticed by any of us .i know a lot of people who put a scoop of creatine in their shakes especially if its a meal replacement type fortified with carbs/dextrose . i hope this helps

the acidity in the juice is what matters... also, Creapure is (i think) a petented creatine made in Germany that is regarded as the best source of creatine. A lot of chinese creatine is flooding the market because it is cheap, and has impurities...

see, i get an answer from both sides of the debait of the question... i don't know what to think,,, anyone else know more stuff??? I can't see it hurting the creatine to put it in with other stuff, although i don't know very much about nutrition at all... and that's what i was thinking about people saying the 100% Creapure... i know there's cheaper stuff out there that's less in quality for sure, hence why it's cheaper.

It doesn't matter if creatine dissolves. It doesn't dissapear, it has just changed from a solid to a liquid. You can mix it with other things, except citrus like the other guys said.
