    I took creatine for the past week or so and doubled my dose of it in the last three days.

    Why am I so angry right now? Very angry?

    It’s the only supplement I’m taking, btw.

      From what I read, past the loading phase you don’t actually want to take more than 5 grams daily. Your body isn’t able to absorb more than that effectively, and it just ends up putting stress on your kidneys.

        Actually, I should be honest: I went above 5 gram, doubling it for seven days straight…
