i have read alot of articles on this.but i have seen that each person has there own opinion. one thing you have to remember is that creatine is just like testosterone, meaning that your body produces it naturally. so since about a week after you started taking it your body has stopped making it. so you must prepare yourself for when you come off of it. you will lose a little weight and strength. what i have read and seems to work for me is just to reload it every two months. it worked for me but now i don't use powder. i use ribose -c. it is liquid.
