fruit juice???

Hey.

I know fruit juice is typically bad, very high in sugar, no real nutritional benefits. But I also hear that its best to consume creatine and glutamine with a fruit juice...now some days I take glutamine or creatine 4-5 times in a day...and that means 4-5 glasses of fruit juice.

Would it be better to take the creatine and glutamine with a healther drink, like water or milk? Or is it more beneficial overall to take creatine and glutamine with juice?

Why do you take creatine 4-5 times a day?

You could try creatine ethyl esther and just drink it with water.

I believe Madmick posted once that even 5 grams of creatine in water is enough for saturation.

Care to elucidate? I'm not sure what you mean by saturation. What, or who, is being saturated?

Your muscles' creatine storage capacity maybe?
