I just found out that my 175g pre-workout shake has a total of 3g creatine. Is this harmless?
Absolutely not, go to the ER immediately or say goodbye to your kidneys.

I'm serious. Is this harmless? It's next to nothing in the grand scheme, I guess.
>>37242600
Creatine is a food supplement. Do you think people would be trying to supplement things that are harmful to their health?
As for the amount of it, 3g is nothing. Some people get a little ill feeling with higher doses (10+g) though.
>>37242600
Holy shit, how have you not OD'd yet? Last time I did three grams of C, I ripped my shirt open like the Hulk and killed my girlfriend.

Turn in your natty card. Don't let the cops catch you. Start browsing /fraud/.
/r/ing the comic where the /fit/izen ods on creatine and Zyzz comes down from Olympus.
OP here.
I read it all wrong, it's 3g per serving.
>>37242634
my question is why is anybody taking 10+g? anything more than 5g has no additional effect.
>>37242600
protip: do you eat meat? you've had creatine before. Creatine doesn't become a problem until you're pounding like 30g DAILY
my friend once smoked three whole creatines and ate his dads face

Some people just grab a tablespoon at a time
I love Sabina!

I always wondered about that. I get all itchy after drinking it every time. What would the cops be thinking when they catch me driving to the gym?
>>37242702
that is so weird
waste of money and why are they using a tablespoon? 5g is a teaspoon man
>>37242716
In Europe cops have creatine testing kits in their cars to catch users. They also stop people who look too swole to do random creatine tests on them.

I'm from Europe.
>>37242923
Shit man. Don't let the cops pull you over while on that stuff.
>>37242950
Cops are all over the place here because of the shitskins. I'm white though.
>>37242969
Doesn't matter man. They'll bust you for being a user rather than dealing the stuff brah. Just avoid that shit.

>i've tried so hard
>>37242666
I took like 15g+ one time without realising it
fucking ON pre-workout that I bought was shit and didnt work so I ended up gradually upping my scoops
I think I put 4/5 scoops in one time idk, but each scoop apparently has 3g of creatine... still didnt get a buzz but I ended up puking when I came home from the gym that shit ended up being really fizzy and made me really bloated

If you do really intense lifting or power work for a long time you can actually burn off the muscular creatine
