No Freakin way, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU. Since this point in time Size On has been the most effective formula that I have ever taken, and I'm pretty sure it was because of this form of creatine. Picked up two of em.

This stuff sounds great, just ordered a couple bags myself, what is the dosing on it, seems like it would be low if it absorbs that good.

Any benefit to mixing it with anything else?

I think the most you would need is 3 grams. It really could be stacked with most anything.

5g is a good dose.
A supplement provider I know is getting 500g for $25 or so.... not BN..

How does it taste? I know creatine tastes like sweaty cracks but buddied with glucose, is it any better?

It basically has no taste whatsoever, I faintly detected a slight ting of sweetness as I finished my 20 oz bottle that I mixed it in. Go ahead and order if taste is your concern.

I'm going to start taking this today. I figured I'd try some NO-explode, even though many say its junk, alot more say its great. never tried it, so figured i would give it a shot. going to be taking that preworkout and 3-5g of creatine gluconate post workout.

I'll pick up some gluconate then, and for those who are using CEE uncapped try putting it in a coffee grinder or a plastic bag and use a rolling pin over it, this will make it nice and fine and it's not nearly as bad suprisingly, it's still bad just not unbearably bad, lol.

what are you talking about? it's a little bit sour but definitely palatable in water.

The gluconate doesn't tase like anything or the Cee? Also does anyone know if Gluconate has better absorption then CEE?

I mixed 5g of gluconate in my postworkout shake. There was zero taste change.

I also tasted alittle of the powder that fell around the shaker (sloppy pouring job) and it has a slightly sweet taste, but barely noticable.

CEE tastes like ass-water (when dissolved in water)

I also tried putting the creatine gluconate into just pure water and drinking that (on an off-day).

The taste of the water was oh-so-slightly sweet. Barely noticable but there. Also, it mixed fairly well upon addition to the water but definately some clumping occurred which I couldnt break up with a spoon (too fine of little clumps) so I just ingested the clumps.

Also, the next day I figured why not just dump it into my mouth and chase it. Very manageable, definately could taste some kind of "chemical" taste when doing this but again, vaguely sweet. However, the sweetness was fleeting when doing it this way. No aftertaste. I tried this after seeing the clumping from dumping it in water.

Keep in mind that creatine gluconate will dissociate in water to its ions: creatine and gluconic acid. Gluconic acid is a fairly inactive ion but it is definitely not glucose, so the "after burner" effect touted by Gaspari's ads is false.
Also, 10g of creatine gluconate will dissociate to yield about 4g of actual creatine, whereas 10g creatine monohydrate will yield almost 9g of creatine.

BUT....

if creatine gluconate provides better solubility/stability, it can be very beneficial. From what I have seen, this stuff dissolves extremely well even in cold water.
Also, gluconic acid is a known "acidity regulator" which may help increase the amount of creatine absorbed during digestion.

It's a very promising idea, even if the ads misrepresent its structure. Size-On has impressed me so far, and I have 200g of creatine gluconate from Custom to dive into after I finish this tub.

I'm on the Size-On/Super Pump stack right now and I must say it is very impressive.

Is Size On's 1290g filled with other stuff? So this is a more cost-effective buy correct?

You cant really make that comparison. Size-On has lots and lots of ingredients in it that help in the overall effectiveness.

I'm dreading the day when my Sizeon runs out and I'm forced to choke down that super pump till thats gone. I think the problem is I work out early early in the morning and it doesn't play well with my oatmeal and AI protein breakfast. I'm screwed...

I don't think he's allowed to sell the mag. chelate version due to the patent holder being a pita and not allowing it.

I'll have to try this Sizeon everyone keeps raving about. I was also thinking of picking up like 2kg of BCAA'S from Crowler and adding like a scoop of whey and a serving of creatine gluconate to make my own ultimate drink for during workouts.

Maybe it's like BCAA's and you need to just let it sit to dissolve.
