powder

creatine breaks down in liquid and pills take alot loner to digest as the pill shell has to break down first

Taekwondo Guy, I agree. Perhaps you can also explain that the big key is getting the most Creatine into your system. Most of what is ingested as a supplement, gets washed out through the kidneys; correct? I drink tons of water and I take powdered Creatine.

there is a whole wealth of info on creatine in the sticky

Love those stickies . Just asking. Of course I read as much as I can and I have been following Creatine since the early 80's. It has come a long way. I was just trying save the young lad here some leg work.

About 6 months ago I started using CEE in pill form. I have used MRI CE2 and Muscle Tech CEE Pro. I like the results from both products and I am still using CEE Pro. There's nothing wrong with powders, I just find it easier to pop pills.

pills are definately easier to take. So they are abosrbed a little slower... so what? It makes no differnece after the 30 minute mark, aslong as your not popping them on a full stomach.

I believe it really comes down to what the person prefers: pills or powder.

I personally prefer powder plus freeform creatine, works almost instantaneously.
Another plus would be that the powder is less expensive than thepills virtually anywhere.

I like pills better because its easier. Right now Im taking Kre Alkalyn. About how does it take the shell to brake down? Im taking mine about 30 min before lifting.
