Hi Y'all Does anyone know if headaches and the trots are normal side effects when starting cteatine. I'm on day three of loading 20 gram per day. I weigh 5 gram doses for drinking 4 times daily in apple or orange juice. It's not too bad but I am curious if its the creatine of some other changes I'v made. tankstons. | ||

Creatine sucks!!! It worked the first time i took it but never worked again besides if i want water retention I will take some anadrol and it actually will be benifical.

I skip the loading phase when I take creatine...it upsets my stomach and I have more headaches during that time. | ||

I get the upset stomach, but I use it at the "loading" dose all the way thru. | ||

I have to take 20 grams every day to see any results. It does give me gas if I've been off of it awhile and then start back. | ||

Bloating. You need some some sugar (fructose) to elicit an insulin response to get the creatine in the cells. ------------------ | ||

To avoid headaches and upset stomach drink PLENTY of water and try dividing it into more frequent smaller doses. Be warned, when it comes to creatine you get what you pay for. If you don't see the results you are looking for it is probably because it's fake. | ||
