Troubleshooting
Product is clumpy
Ensure the lid is tightly sealed after each use and store in a dry environment. Exposure to moisture can cause clumping. If clumping occurs, try to break it up with a fork or spoon.
Difficulty mixing
Use a shaker bottle or a whisk for better dissolution. Ensure you are using the recommended amount of liquid and mixing vigorously. The micronized form should mix more easily than traditional creatine.
Mild digestive discomfort
Ensure you are consuming adequate water throughout the day. Try taking the supplement with a meal or spreading your dose if you take more than one serving. Reduce the serving size temporarily if discomfort persists.
