Creatine (Cyclone/Hurricane....)

[evenflow]

The protein products that you can buy that contain creatine such as Cyclone and Hurricane XS - how long can you take them for? Is it a case of using them for a couple of months and then going back to a "normal" protein shake?
Would you take on rest days too (as per "normal" protein shake)?
Thanks.

I don't think the relatively small doses of creatine in Hurricane XS would cause you much trouble prolonged, but like anything, I like to moderate things, creatine is a natural product anyway, it's in beef and oily fish, but I think it doesn't like being cooked? Luckily I like blue steak

I use Hurricane XS before a workout only and use "normal" protein shakes in the general course of things, just because I like to moderate my intake of everything.
