yeah, i'll look for some articles to back this up but creatine can not be a stable substance in a liquid state. When it mixes with anything, it starts to break down.

but i could be wrong lol

It takes a little while for it to break down into creatinine....as in a few hours. So, you should be good.

I still say go with the powder.

This was taken from www.absolute-creatine.com

The major down side to liquid creatine is it is very hard to make. If creatine is just mixed in a liquid it starts to breakdown into a waste product (creatinine) after about 20 minutes. So, to make liquid creatine effective the creatine must be stabilized. If the creatine is stabilized it will not break down into a waste product - and it will remain as creatine monohydrate.

That little tidbit there is wrong. If creatine degraded that quickly it would be degraded before it go through our digestion systems and into the blood stream.

No liquid creatine is stable, BTW.
