Hi guys, great site. I`m a newbie to the internet as I`ve only had it a week and I love it. Especially forums such as this. Any way there was one question I have been wanting 2 get off my chest. I`m sorry if it`s been asked a 1000 times before. I am aware that creatine should ideally be taken with a high glycemic substance, ( Dextrose etc). I`ve tried Cell Tech but unfortunately it didn`t do anything for me apart from make me go dizzy and felt as though my eyes were going to pop out. Had a test for diabetes but negative so it`s a mystery. I wont have it again though and it costs a fortune £39.99 here in England. Anyway sorry 4 babbling, what I wanted to ask, will taking creatine with bananas give good results (complex carbs and high GI too), I`m just curious. I know it`s said you need simple carbs to shuttle it into the muscles but the banana is magic innit, high gi and its a complex carb. Have any of u tried it ? Let me know. You`ll be hearing alot more from me I`ve got 1000s of questions I`ve had fermenting in my little skull!
Cheers guys!

Yo Razor!

Why don't you try drinking it with grape juice?

Maltodextrin is quite cheap if you buy it in bulk from a health shop or whatever...

Grape juice tates very nice though!

Cell-Tech is a waste of money really. Not worht 40-50 squid when you can simply make your own.

Hell! you can even buy Alpha-lipoic acid!

All the supps you can buy can be home-made, albeit not as good quality, but for the amount they cost to make, they can be of good value...

Bananas are excellent for post workout, so I imagine they would also help when taking creatine.

On a side note, creatine doesn't 'work' for everyone, so keep that in mind before you try a dozen different methods. :)

Hey good to see a fellow Brit on the board...

I often thought that about bananas too..

I bought some celltech for £40 too and am using half portions and throwing in some bananas for the extra carbs..

Or when I used pure creatine I used to eat it with bananas or a high carb drink...

I would think bananas are fine as they are sugary carbs..

Lots of q's huh ? Ask away ! There are lots of knowledgable people here !

Hellrazor,
Welcome aboard, you've come to the best bb site on the net. There are lots of smart guys on the board, they can answer just about any bb question you have. A piece of advice for you, if you don't like eminem keep it to yourself, hulk gets rather touchy when people insult slim shady.

By the way spidey, I thought gear was a necessity of life, not a drug:D
