I have a few questions about Creatine Ethyl-Ester.

-I plan to buy some HIGH POWERED CEE (http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/hp/ester.html) Has anyone has any experience with this? It's really cheap, but I don't know about the quality.

-There is no loading phase with CEE?
-I should do a 4 week on/3 week off cycle?

-Do i need to mix it with dextrose? I know for Monohydrate you should to aid absorption, but since CEE has good absorbtion, do I still need to do this?

-If I do need to mix it with a dextrose type drink, should I use gatorade? I read that gator is the typical creatine mix that people use for their dextrose source, but isn't gatorade/gatorade powder acidic?

-If it is acidic, what should I be mixing CEE with? I read grape juice, but the timing does not really work since the juice would be out of the fridge for like 5 hours.

-How does CEE dosage compare to Monohydrate dosages? I read that the dosages are different since Monohydrate is poorly absorbed in comparison. I'm 165-170lb and 12% BF.

-How should it be taken post workout if I take protein/glutamine? Creatine asap, then protein/glutamine 30 mins after?

And help would be appreciated thank you.

Roll over to the www.trueprotein.com forums.. this issue was killed over there, by folks much more intelligent than myself.

While you are there check the price... I bet it is cheaper :)

When I took it, i never went through a loading cycle and had good results

-you don't need to mix it with dextrose for it to work well, just water will do fine

with CEE you can take smaller dosages, like 2-3 g

i would take it immediately before and after workout, then protein after
