Do you guys not recommend it as a staple for it's potential (albeit slight) effects on overall weight?

Here's a question regarding all 3 supplements. I probably already know the answer but I want to make sure anyway. Dont ask me why but I perfer to measure out my Creatine, BA and CLT on a spoon seperately then take a gulp of water and down it. Are there any studies that suggest that is not a good way to take it? As in I SHOULD disolve the powders in a liquid first or doesnt it matter? Thanks.

The water is merely acting as a suspension; the powders dissolve but that's just a physical change to the system. No chemical reaction occurs between it and the water, so whether you mix it first or drop it in your mouth is irrelevant.

Glutamine? I've always heard the benefits of recovery, though while taking it pre / post never noticed anything. Shit was chalky as hell.

This thread is great for both your input.
