Just a quick question!!!!

I have read many of the threads and posts on the creatine that people are using!!

Ok my question is this. If my protein has a sweetener in it (i.e aspartame) does this constitute as a good transporter for creatine, or do i have to add some other simple sugar also?

Hi,

Aspartame , Sucralose (Splenda) , and other artificial sweeteners do not cause the insuline spike that is needed for the creatine transport to muscles.

Kool-aid , Gatorade,etc... have been tested with good results for pre-workout.

I take creatine for post-workout / recovery and I mix 5g with a Protoplex MRP shake with good results., I dont think that the insuline transport effect is that important for post-workout.

Dextrose and sugar in general has a weakening effect after entering the bloodstream so be carefull when taking it for a pre-workout.
