Why is it that on the directions for Xpand, it says "for optimal results do not consume within 30 minutes of taking protein" ? I take my p/w shake right after training so does this discount the effectiveness of xpand?
Also, I take one scoop of Xpand during my workout.... is it ok that I don't just chug it right away? I mean the creatine won't denature within 40-45 minutes will it?

Bump... please guys, gotta make sure I'm not wasting this stuff by taking it w/ protein?

I would guess it's because the two would compete for absorption in your body making them weaker.

ok thanks.. sorry just two more questions:
Also, I take one scoop of Xpand during my workout.... is it ok that I don't just chug it right away-that I sip it throughout the workout? I mean the creatine won't denature within 40-45 minutes will it?
Finally, if I pre-mix t Nitronx and add a banana and oats (to mix the GI) for postworkout (about 2 hours before I would drink it) than will the creatine in Nitronx have broken down and be useless? How long is creatine stable for?

the creatine in it will be fine for the 40-45 mints it takes u 2 consume it
