I have almost completed my entire supplement schedule, but I have been having one problem. The information that I havefound on creatine is that it should not be consumed with protein as it reduces its effectiveness (the protein blocks its absorption). If anyone can shed some light on this and maybe give some recommendations it would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Berg

Thank you for your responses. This just happened to be what I had found in a little research. I try to get as much information on things as I can before I try to implement them into my program/lifestyle. The main problem I had was lots of conflicting information on creatine and consumed with protein, not mixed together though. But I do appreciate the answer I got from you. I trust your response much more than some anonymous article writer. As far as I am concerned BB1's word is law :big_smile: BTW still looking great BB1, even for an old fart.
