Are there ways of increasing the retention of creatine monohydrate in my body?
Yes, retention may increase when consuming simple carbohydrates, such as Glucose in fruit juices, when compared to creatine monohydrate alone. Mixing a creatine monohydrate with apple, cranberry or orange juice will allow you to benefit from this. However, do not let the juice/creatine monohydrate mixture stand for more than a few minutes because the acid in the juice with breakdown and render the creatine monohydrate useless. Also, supplementing with alpha-Lipoic Acid (a nutrient found in out Neuraegis product) may also result in greater muscle creatine monohydrate accumulation than intake alone.
