    Help ! Creatine Question

    Follow me on this....Is it possible to over saturate ur system with Creatine.
    After u doing the loading phase (which some say u don't need to do, some do.) Is it possible once the muscles are saturated and u keep taking in Creatine, or I should say too much Creatine, u will it start to retain subcutaneous water?
    Ever since I started supplementing Creatine, it's like my stomach feels bloated all the time. And not just after I drink it. I'm wondering if it is retaining water in the gut area? My diet is otherwise pretty tight, and it seems like my abs are starting to go south.

    How much are you using daily? All you need is 5-10g at most daily. Ive even seen results with as low as 3g per day.

    Yeah I take about 5-10 mgs a day. And not everyday either. Mostly on training days, which is like 5 days a week.
