I don't mix it, I just eat it with a tea spoon. Washed down with water.

I will however mix 5gram into my post workout shake and Pre workout drink.

I am pretty sure your body takes care of the dissolving. Never heard of such a thing.

There is no evidence whatsoever that creatine needs to be fully dissolved in order to be effective.

I do the same as Mick, with most of the non-protein supplements I take. They all taste like shit so it's pointless trying to mix it and having to torture myself with drinking an entire pint of it

Arnt u on 60 grams a day?
 
I mix mine with gatorade I'm doing it warm the nite before now. This bulk nutrients shit don't dissolve the best.
 
Big mick and ONI : u ****s are mad lol

Have never even considered doing it any other way, just seemed like the way to do it when I first bought the stuff. Pure creatine does not dissolve really well, imagine if ONI tried dissolving 60 grams of creatine, you would have to use a 20 litre jerry can to dissolve it all to have enough liquid to try and keep it in suspension.

Then you would have to try and drink it before it sinks to the bottom again.
 
For shits and giggles one day I found it dissolves really well in softdrink, creatine in your red bull pre workout!

Usually it just goes into my shake, don't notice it in there.
 
yeah id always put it in shakes or straight into flavoured milk.

yeah i tried it straight in my gob then washed it down...fucked up.

ill man up this week and push through the torture.

You know dissolves means you're not getting any of the creatine, right?
 
When i used to take creatine it was with about 100-200ml of water, just to help it go down a little easier.

After reading this i put 25 grams of creatine in 200ml stirred it up and drank it. It mixes up fine in water.

Did it dissolve or was it suspended in the water because you were stirring it like mad and then settled at the bottom once you stopped??
