Q: I’ve been using creatine for years and have tried many types (creatine monohydrate, citrate, malate, etc.)—some with better results than others. I’ve now been hearing about a new type of creatine and am wondering if it’s worth trying. What is this “creatine ethyl ester”? Is it a better form of creatine? What do you know about it?
A: The first question we need to clarify is what do you mean by better? Yes, there is reason to believe creatine ethyl ester (or CEE) is probably more soluble than creatine monohydrate (Cr.H20) or other forms of creatine. And, as solubility affects transport over biological membranes (such as muscle cells), it probably is taken up into your muscles more effectively. Meaning, you can load it faster. However, whether this leads to a greater accumulation of creatine in your muscle, at the end of a five-day loading phase, compared to creatine monohydrate, is relatively unknown. At least, there’s no human data as of yet that can support or dispute this claim.

Today we’re going to be looking at the pros and cons of
Ok now you have decided to take creatine as a supplement as part of your muscle building regime.
Probably the most common question asked about creatine is “how do I take creatine?”. Today I’m going to show you the best way of taking creatine monohydrate.
Today I’m going discuss creatine side effects. For such a widely used supplement, most people know very little about creatine and how it works. This has lead to some wild rumors flying around about creatine. Some of these rumors are funny, others are simple ridiculous!
