What creatine to buy

[Natural_Teen]

I know that creatine with a transport devise such as dextrose or malto. is better than just straight creatine. Though my main question is it more economical to buy straight creatine and just mix it in a drink like powerade which is loaded with malto. Or should i just buy some malto. and put it in the straight creatine? Lastly should i just save myself the effort and just buy sci tec trans X creatine which has Dextrose, creatine monohydrate, d-ribose, glutamine, arginine, taurine, Vition™ (magnesium aspartate, zinc aspartate, potassium phosphate, dipotassium phosphate? Just wondering what would prove to be the most effective product.

Also is sci tec a reputable brand?i have really heard to much about them and my distributor doesnt carry them, should i be weary and go with cell tec or some other known brand like prolab?

thanks for the help peoplez

I just buy straight creatine and order a ton of maltodextrin or dextrose. Creatine is cheap now, but the "transport systems" are still a rip off.

Go with what Thaibox said

You can get 2.5 kilos of creatine for $45 and 11 lbs of dextrose for $10 or 8 lbs of maltodextrin for $20. That right there should last you for a long while compared to some other fancier creatine products.
