Creatine Monohydrate makes me feel nauseous as fuck but i still wanna take it cause: Gains.

>>38759879
fucking grow up then stop crying over sups and get creatine from, you know, food.
you cunt
>>38759961
Well i would love to, but poorfag so eating lots is not really an option.
get use to it or quit lifting you fucking beta
>>38759879
Maybe you need to drunk more water.
Or use small doses to ease into it.
recently I've been having gut-wrenching diarrhea right after i get home from the gym.
I think it's the creatine
>>38760167
How much are you taking?
>>38760184
2 tablespoons, 5 grams with 200ml of water.
during the day i prob drink 3 shakers full of water
>>38760192
>tablespoons
Nigger, a tablespoon is not even close to 5g it's anywhere between 3 - 5 times bigger. Get yourself a set of measuring spoons from a local supermarket or somewhere you can buy cooking supplies and find a 5g scoop
Jesus Christ

As a point of reference, a single TEAspoon of sugar weighs 4g most places cite a tablespoon of sugar as 12g.

>>38760248
lmfao are you actually serious? I've been using the blue measurement for a month now
I've noticed it only makes me nauseous when i took it pre workout. Try taking it with your protein after your workout.
>>38760276
You are a dense motherfucker. Swap to that red one, and only take one scoop. Watch how miraculously you stop wanting to die
>>38760276
Oh my fucking god i just checked it up.. Holy fuck i've been taking 20 grams of creatine every day for a month.. no wonder i've been shitting like a faucet
>>38760313

>20g everyday for a month
haaaaaaaa
>>38760320
>20grams
>Everyday
It shouldn't be making you nauseous.
If you're having that problem, then it means one or more of three possible things
1) The brand is shit and they put a lot of filler in it
2) You're taking too much
3) You're a pussy
Also, creatine is a waste of money. Stop throwing your money away on meme supplements and just buy test
Take smaller amounts at a time until your body gets used to it also take it with meals.
>>38760320
In the early days of creatine use 50g/day was common, and kidney stones were accepted as a common side effect.
You're not gonna die but you should probably stop.
Someone screen cap this shit!

>dry weight measure
>liquid weight measure
Step up your game.
>>38760320
RIP OPs kidneys
gg no re
>>38760525
>liquid creatine
Excuse you.
>>38760320
The scoop meme fucking lives! Best thread in months!
>>38760534
OP here.
Should i actually get my kidneys checked? I feel so fucking stupid
>>38760563
Take a break from creatine for a week. Then restart on an ACTUAL 5g a day. If after a 2nd week you don't stop shitting furiously, yeah see a doctor then.
>>38760320
Kek
>>38760563
Pics of shits.
Then advice. Delivar.
>>38760646
I'm pretty sure you can figure out what "Shitting like a faucet" translates into.
>>38760192
>2 tablespoons
Fucking what, is it pure or mixed with something? Here is the label from my supposedly 100%.
>>38760535
Measuring dry powder mass with liquid mass measuring tool.
Get a scale.
>>38760767
I fucked up. It's 100% pure creatine monohydrate.
>>38760816
See >>38760767
A teaspoon is a perfectly good way of measuring powder as long as you're not taking heaped scoops.
>>38759879
It makes me slightly nauseous too, just get used to it. You can avoid most of it by taking it before eating and then drinking a lot.
Somewhat related question, I had the roommate buy me more protein while he was out. He got a different type then I normally do and this one has 1.5g/scoop.
Is this low enough that I don't need to worry about it, or should I sit down and figure out how much I need to reduce.
>>38760320
TWO TABLESPOONS A DAY CMON!!!
>>38760958
1.5g of protein per scoop?
I suggest you ask your roommate for your money back. You'd be better eating your own jizz at that rate.
>>38760320
5 SCOOPS
>>38760320
Humans carry about two grams of creatine per kilogram of lean muscle mass (one gram per pound). The maximum we can put into muscles is about 3g/kg (1.4g/lb)[47]. To hit this level, a 150 pound male would need about 25 grams of creatine supplementation.
You will be fine.
>>38760999
1.5g of creatine per scoop, but it is irrelevant for reasons posted above.
