I can remember some purity tests where creapure was testing out at like 99% creatine per serving and some of the chinese sourced were as low as 80%. That's a huge difference then you have to wonder what the 'filler' was on the Chinese brands.

yea i have seen those same test. I don't think the filler is anything harmful and are more than likely just excess or non reactive reactants. Many times in fields where purity will not be tested often nor can be harmful, the Chinese will setup very crude reactions that leave a lot to be desired when it comes to excess reactants.

but it is pretty well documented that it is the same reason people get more GI distress from Chinese made creatine when compared to creapure

i will say, the Chinese can make great products. They do it every day in the pharmaceutical industry. but if their hand isnt forced, they will always always take the cheaper more crude route.

I wish someone made a higher concentration creatine for this reason.

You probably wont notice the difference either way. Just add more Test or some Deca instead.
