Why does the product shown say 'Made In USA' but when it's actuality received it clearly states "Product of China"?!

The creatine itself is from China. Bulk Supplements, a competitor, says there is no US source for it. The "Made in USA" labels basically mean "packaged in USA".

How much water do you need to drink while taking Creatine? I've heard that you need at least a gallon but is that too much or necessary?

That's a hard question to give an exact number to. I've upped my intake a little. I would guess between a liter and 2 liters a day, so that's around a quart to half a gallon. I also take my doses with loads of water. That said how much water you really need depends on your activity level, metabolism, climate, etc. If you're already getting enough water to feel hydrated and you take the creatine you might notice a little dryness in your mouth or throat, if so just try drinking an extra glass. If it persists drink a second extra glass. If you're drinking plenty already you'll probably never notice the difference. Also once you reach "saturation" (after about 4 weeks of regular dosing) then you'll have as much water in the muscles as they'll hold (until you grow them--and that's slow) and the only reason you might need more water in a day is because you're no working harder at the gym with all that new-found strength. So, long story short, start taking it, if you feel like hydrating a little more then do so, if you still feel like you're well hydrated then chances are you are getting enough fluid in and don't need to worry about adding much more.

Why have they stopped including the measuring scoop?

Different people require different amounts. Plus it’s a bulk supplement so it has multiple uses and it’s a cost saver.

Do they test for heavy metals?

We test every raw material and every blend for heavy metals and ensure that our strict limits are always met to assure safety.

First time trying creatine. Not very soluble, but no idea if this is a characteristic of the chemical. However, if it is micronized, rightfully solubility should be superb. Also from those poor reviews of people using it before, creatine should be soluble.

Inexpensive creatine that came recommended by my trainer. Affordable and effective. I drink it everyday, even if I am not working out.

I have been taking this supplement for 2 months and my body is loving it! I'm a very active person and one of the many benefits creatine offers is post workout recovery. This product stands true to that. Think heavier sprints and stronger runs with less muscle soreness the next day.
