| [PRODUCT]3478[/PRODUCT] I picked up a 4lbs. tub of Creatine Surge recently. The label claims 6g of creatine monohydrate per serving. This product dissolves completely. Does the sugar in this product allow the creatine to dissolve in water or something? Pure creatine monohydrate powder, like the one I have from Prolabs, does not dissolve at all. It makes me wonder if all the creatine has settled to the bottom of the tub, or worse, that there is hardly any in there in the first place. |

| Shook and tossed the tub around for a good fifteen minutes and ended up with maybe an 1/8 tsp. of creatine powder on the bottom of my glass. |

| This is why I've never been interested in these overpriced creatine blended products. Just get some regular mono and dextrose on the side or some waxy maize starch. Guaranteed the correct dose this way, and costs less. |

| Creatine SURGE contains anticatabolic nutrients such as creatine, glutamine and taurine delivered in a base of 35 grams pure dextrose, which is critical to the replenishment of muscle glycogen. Dextrose stimulates the release of insulin to enhance glycogen production in muscles. The effect of dextrose on insulin is superior to maltodextrin or fructose. Jarrow Formulas’ Creatine SURGE is formulated to enhance absorption of nutrients by the muscles, incorporating specific anticatabolic nutrients that aid protein and glycogen synthesis. http://www.getnutri.com/jarrowformulas.htm |
