    Ester creatine is bad for the kidneys. I have never been let down by monohydrate.

    I like DiM-C and Mono combined. This works best for me. CEE is a waste of time, IMO. People complain about bloat with Mono, but luckily I have not had this side.

    monohydrate. Cheaper then dirt, zero taste, proven effective in hundreds of studies.

    I'd say Creatine mono. Used to take the caps then got the powder and just mix it with water. Powder doesn't seem to disolve properly though, even if i put a little more water than recommended there still seems to be a little bit of powder at the bottom of the glass.

    Worth going back onto the capsules?

    I only used micronized monohydrate. CEE didn't do anything for me.

    I find they are good at different things. Creatine Mono definitely gives the biggest size advantage for me b/c I retain quite a bit of water while on it and get VERY good strength gains. I find the CEE and Tricreatine-Malate didn't give me quite as good as strength gains as mono, but I retained far less water weight. I like mono during my winter months when bulking and such. Then a less water retaining one like CEE or Malate when I want to look less bloaty.

    Just my .02

    I voted Mono in the poll though.

    Tri-Creatine di-methyl-malate-ester-gluconate I heard is the best one to take.















    or maybe just monohydrate.

    that's an interesting comment, care to elaborate? I'd hate to be punching myself in the kidneys and not know it...
    I like CEE too because mono makes me nauseous as well as bloat,
    but I have a feeling that the reduction in sides from CEE is flat out because CEE is less effective. Somewhere here on the boards, an independant study was finally posted on mono vs CEE claiming CEE was only 60something % as effective.
