Thread: Creatine absorption question

As an experienced user of creatine monohydrate, been using it on and off for many years, I've educated myself and experimented with the product quite extensively. However, there is one aspect of it's use that I kind of neglected and not until recently have I considered that perhaps I can get more out of creatine.

Will Brink in his video states that creatine mono should be fully dissolved in a liquid for your body to fully absorb the product. He further states that it's very time consuming, if possible at all, to dissolve creatine mono in a cold liquid while relatively quick and easy in hot beverages such as hot water or tea. He demonstrates this nicely in his video.

I've always been under the impression that as long as you wash down the powder your body uses all it's been fed but now I'm concerned that since when I use creatine mono (creapure) it's never dissolved when I drink it that perhaps I've not been reaping in it's full rewards.

Anyone know from experience anything about this absorption business of fully dissolved creatine to non dissolved?

When creatine sits in water, it converts to creatinine which does a body no good. Well, it won't hurt you, it just doesn't do anything.

Just toss it back dry and chase with something to drink. I just use water. Creatine is the most butt simple sup out there, don't over think it.
