i dont know about the soda, but yes you should take creatine on non workout days so your muscles stay saturated with creatine.
10g per day seems like a little much if your not loading, most people do 5g per day.Last edited by xc_mtb; 07-27-2008 at 11:04 AM.

there shouldn't be any problem with mixing creatine monohydrate with soda. However, in the supplement market now, most of the creatine monohydrate supplements come with 'delicious' flavours, so mixing with milk or water should taste great It is definitely not like glutamate where normally slightly bitter powders are made.

yeah I was told its best to mix it with a "sugary non-acidic" drink of some sort but I hate soda and sugary drinks anyway so I always just mix it in with my protien shake in the morning.
On a side note I have really noticed an increase in my performance at the gym since I started taking creatine mono. Its the one supplement other then protien where Im confident Im getting a tangible benefit for the money I put into it.
