Creatine questions

[blood_drinker]

I am getting dextrose for post workout with whey. Since I have some dextrose on me (which btw is incredibly cheap) should I just get creatine monohydrate or am I better off using one of those premade ones?
I can find a pretty good one 4.3lbs jug with all the stuff like sodium , ala, and dextrose for $22 -recommended by a bro on the board. I can get 1000grams of creatine monohydrate for 25$. SO in total i would be spending 25$+5$ (for 4lbs of dextrose). total 30$.

IF i would buy the premade one, i would spend 22$, plus $5 for dextrose (post workout). I know the previous option is more enticing , yet will the premade ones make that much of a difference, considering I already supplement with dextrose? (100 gi)

bro if sodium is something you definately want to avoid, it's not a good thing, not even post workout.

ALA will denature itself when exposed to oxygen and light. Don't ever buy ALA powder, even if it's half the price, it's practically worthless. So the ALA in those premade creatine drinks are worthless.

Now the dextrose i told you in another topic where you could get it for $10 for 11lbs. (supplement direct).

Creatine sells pretty cheap, especially at dpsnutrition

It will be much more cheaper for you to buy the creatine and dextrose and make your own drink, and that way you have a lot of dextrose left for your post workout shakes. BTW drink your creatine w/ your postworkout shake, the insulin spike will allow you to take more of it in.
