Does anyone know how fast and how long it takes creatine to break down in a juice mix?? I've been mixing creatine into non citrous juice (w/extra glucose) just before drinking it but I'm getting bored of my choices in juice. B-(

It of course depends on the form of creatine and it's purity but about 20 mins or so before it starts to convert to creatinine ------------------ | ||

Arg, that's quick. Probably would be half gone by the time I finished my workout. B-( It's too bad they like to add tons of citric acid to juice packets. Anyone have any suggestions for a good juice for a stable creatine mix?? | ||

get pure creatine monohydrate and stick it in your mouth, drink it down with 50/50 mix of grape juice and grapefruit juice ------------------ | ||

The glucose is what breaks it down if you want it to stay in your system take it with water. It works alot better and also a bit better on you stomach. Juice is horiable to mix with any creatine. It totallly breaks it down. | ||

Glucose is to trigger an insulin respose making your body take up more of the creatine. |
