Hello,
I am 6 foot 1 and I weigh 160 lbs and I have decided to start taking creatine pills. I went to the nutrion centre and decided to go with QSE's Hi-Potency Kre-Alkalyn. The pills are 800mg each and I have read many different suggestions on the dosage I should take but thought this would be my best bet on getting my answer. Thanks
 
5/.8~6
20/.8=25

I've heard that with creatine mono most people load with about 20 grams a day (seperated into a few doses) followed by 5 grams daily (once a day). I'm not sure, however, if this applies to the type that you have.
 
I recently read up on it and found out that since it's buffered creatine and the ph levels are different, that your body absorbs more of the creatine, so you need less.
 
That's cool, how much did it cost? Let me know how well it works for you. I recently started taking creatine mono and I've already noticed a bit of the water retention. Do your pills have the same effect? How much did they cost? Mine's just pure and was about 18 bucks for something like 60 or 80 doses.
 
My pills cost me 27$ with no tax because I am a student. You get 100 pills and they are 800mg each. The dosage on the bottle says to take 1 or 2 pills 30 minutes before your workout, and 1 or 2 post-workout. There the QSE kre-Alkalyn and the lady working said they were identical to purple k but less expensive because they advertise a lot less. So far I have increased the weight I can lift by 5 pounds over all and 10 pounds in pecs and biceps. It makes me pee alot more, but it's somethign you have to deal with. I am not notticing water rettention because if my information is correct, buffered creatine should not make you retain as much water as mono, however it is still early. I will make sure to keep you posted.
