Creatine & Coffee

[albusmc]

I have looked around about this for a little while now, i was just wondering what you all thought about creatine and coffee. I have heard that coffee does not effect the creatine levels in your body. Ive also heard that it does effect the creatine levels. I am just wondering if any of you have fact, or opinion about this matter. I am in the USMC, and i drink coffee almost everyday, and also take creatine everyday. Lemme know what you all think. Thanks.

Do people just say creatine dosnt work well with it because coffee dehydrates you?

creatine+cofee is fine. i know from experience. i once dropped the coffee for 2 months to see if my results differ with my supplements, but nothing changed.after i started coffee again,results were consistent.

i dunno if the USMC allows it or whatever but how about another source of caffeine? coffee contains a high amount of substances that aren't really helpful. personally, i dont really like the way coffee makes your skin feel compared to other sources of caffeine. i think its rough on the stomach when taken with creatine. hope this helps.

thanks for serving our country. it means a lot to me.
