Homemade Creatine

I found a website on making your own celltech, and was wondering if this is true and effective. they mix it in water and you drink it. I was wondering if you could just mix the creatine and Dextrose in powder form and then use in like regular cell tech.

Also would any creatine monohydrate work because you can find creatine mono for alot cheaper than the Prolab stuff. As long as its pure creatine mono it should be fine in my opinion. Seems like this guy has really got it figured out I just wanted to see if anyone else knows

i dont know if i would fool with making your own. id just take mono and dex seperate and leave it at that. just my opinion.

I've tried making my own cell tech, and it has worked pretty good.
Can I use maltodextrin, instead of dextrose?

Thanks

you can get like 2.5lbs of mono creatine for like $25. is it really that pricey you need to make your own?

I wasnt referring to cell tech. I just meant some general creatine mono hydrate. All of muscletechs junk is pricey...overpriced.

Your right, I won't buy there products, just way to overpriced. I mixed my creatine mono and dextrose together and got some good results. Do you think I can use maltodexrin instead of dextrose? Reason is, that my buddy just gave me three tubs of the maltodexrin.

you truly dont need sugar it just helps with absorbtion because of the insulin spike...I guess if you take it pwo its good but otherwise your just adding unnecessary sugar into your diet. loading is supposed to be a bunch of bs also.

its a way to sell product. 3-5 grams a day is optimal...i dont know about cycling i heard that helps but it seems more placebo then anything. but do whatever...i can find the articles on it if anyone thinks different, i dont feel like it right now time to go to the gym .
