In my own experience, when I started out with Creatine mono I had bad heartburn & stomach cramps during the loading phase, after I switched to Creatine HCL it manufacturer claimed it does not cause any indigestion issues & I have found this to be true. The nice thing is that my pre-workout contains 1g of Creatine HCL & 1g Creatine Nitrate so I don't need to buy it as an extra supplement anymore.
@@gabrield.h3785 TNT CREA-COMBAT, I see on the new packaging they have added Mono to the mix as well, so it is Creatine Mone, HCL and nitrate. So it is now 5G of total creatine per serving.

I could never gain weight, i took eas myoplex & creatine. Gained 17 lbs in 3 weeks. Also took weight gainer and ate like crazy. Prob most was water wait. But some do work well. Don't miss a day or you will notice your gains slowdown fast
You can’t always go off of research. Research is just one tool. Mono, in ANY amount, even just 2gm in water gives me the shits and hurts my bowels. Krealkylin works really well, hcl works even better FOR ME.
In my own experience I noticed better increase in strides while using Creatine Nitrite, ie, strength, power, definition, retain muscle longer, with the monohydrate their seemed to be greater muscle gain, "more bulk," but the muscle gain shed quickly during inactivity, was told that was because the monohydrate retained more water weight, and also the Creatine Nitrate absorption into the blood was greater then with the mono. My problem now is that Creatine Nitrate is hard to find over the last few years at the larger outlet chain stores. Is there a reason for the scarcity? Seems like every time I fund a product that works 4 me it gets pulled.
It seems to me like some people have more acidic stomachs and some people have more basic stomachs. Some creatine is more acidic and some is more basic. Maybe an acidic creatine is a good idea for one person but a bad idea for someone else. I am new to the world of creatine so apologies if this has already common knowledge or even a correct assumption in the first place.
3-4g of creapure, 1g of hcl, 1g of nitrate is definitely the way to go. 3-4g of creapure per day is already enough and there are studies that recommend only 1g of each of the other 2.
i noticed that Creapure was not mentioned. i cant find any direct answers so im hoping you can get back to me on this, but it looks like Creapure is just a more pure form of creatine monohydrate. so it should be just as safe as creatine monohydrate? is there any known research that says Creapure is not as safe as regular creatine monohydrate ?
I noticed a big difference when I took creatures creatine by beast Labs if that's what you're talking about. I'm a non-responder to creatine monohydrates. I can't tell any difference besides maybe I look a little more bloated unfortunately there is a few people that this happens to.
Creapur is the platinum standard for creatine monohydrate. 99.9% pure derived chemicals from fermented plants/vegetables. Regular creatine monohydrate is only 98.9% pure and is probably contaminated with dicyandiamide which breaks down into poisonous inorganic hydrogen cyanide inside the stomach. It's probably also contaminated with heavy metals and has chemicals derived from questionable sources. Creapur is far superior in every way.
Yeah I'm one of those people creatine monohydrate just makes me bloated I don't get no stronger or muscle gain. But I did take beast creatures creatine which is a blend of multiple creatines and it did work.
No, it's funny you asked that. Of all these, I'm certain that threeatine isn't any good. I spare you the research I did, but I assure you, it's not good
@@happynucca1127 the one I loved, Platinum, sold on Amazon was replaced and I don't like the new one, I've been on this one Muscle Feast Creapure Creatine Monohydrate Powder | 5400Mg for two months, it's pretty solid. Night and day better Threeatine
@@OzMo410 it's overpriced and proved to be worse than mono so yes. Mono specifically creapure due to no Chinese contamination like 99% of creatine on the market should be the staple. Creapure is a German pharma patent that is in many companies creatine tubs. If you want to try other hcl and nitrate along with your 3-4g of mono would be the best way to go
@@earlcoles5215 I don’t think it’s the worst, but they earned a bad reputation in the past for overpromising and overcharging for their products.

You gave the answer straight away, I Subscribed.
Creatin HCL is for me the key. No problems any more and full power.
For me creatine magnesium chelate works the best ("Magna power")
Thanks for the straightforward answer, I’m 18 and I’m pretty skinny so I’m trying to gain some weight and muscle. Might try out some monohydrate
Hows the gym going?
@@matthewmckoy955 inconsistent. Still pretty skinny but definitely not as skinny as when I commented this. I need to learn about bulking

i used ethyl ester for around 2 years. had a kidney stone at age 26. maybe its linked
I use CR18 CREATINE berry flavour tastes great and seems to do the job, far better than the Matrix brand I used to use.

Probably for the reason you exactly stated you keep your gains for longer which means less buying of product losing money in the long run

Very informative, but the excessive hand movement is distracting.

Eas early on had a good one. But they changed the Formula i believe and was never the same.

Is ethyl ester and malate the same creatine?
For me its ethyl ester
Creatine pyruvate?
it would be nice if every video started this way😄
Monohydrate sucks for some and good for others depends on how you react to it
I always go from big fat guy to pretty fit when i take it. Like night and day

not if you drink a lot of water. It's got me pooping right now lol.

Does monohydrate harm your kidneys?
@John S and don't forget that creatine has had thousands of study's done on it and it's the most researched supplement.
Yes
If you dont have any kidney issues, creatine is just safe to take.
If you dont drink enough water yes. If uoure worried about it then uou can test your creatinine levels when you start taking it, if theyre too high then drink more water. 2L a day should be fine.
