Creatine is definitly nessesary it is naturally produced in your body, also it will help with your muscle recovery. There isnt anything wrong with taken it you just need to stay away form the ones that will make you hold water. You want to stay away from the mono-hydrate. You really should consider adding some creatine into your diet, especially after a work out.
meatsack i would recommend Surge by Biotest, its the best recovery drink i’ve ever used and it’s chalk full of BCAAs and high quality protein. it’s not cheap but with protein powders you get what you pay for in most cases.
all creatine on the market is creatine monohydrate, and the chemical process for creating supplemental creatine is the same, no matter what marketing babble any company puts on their labels.creatine monohydrate is converted to phosphocreatine in your blood by creatine kinase, which provide extra ATP (the currency of energy in your body) to your muscles to help you keep going and recover faster. the process canbe reversed to create phosphocreatine for use later, and that’s the whole point behind loading phases and all that jazz.
because of the nature of the chemical reaction it takes to create it, you can’t attach anything to creatine monohydrate to make it more effective, and the reason you get bloated when taking lesser quality creatines is because it’s not as pure as possible. look for creatine’s that get tested by independent labs and have a high level of purity.
you don’t need to understand all the science jargon, you just have to get the gist of what creatine does, which is provide extra energy. it’s not necessary to supplement with it but it is very helpful. hopefully this answers your questions regarding that. any other specific supplements you had questions about?

i hadn’t heard anything about Nitrotech before but after looking at the products and their “research” i am still really skeptical. here is a link to the product review and their explanations of the improvements:

a double blind study at a tiny university only using 36 subjects, especially with unpublished statistics and results doesn’t really promote much confidence from me although it would sound good and sciency to the average person. i don’t care if it cost them a multi-million dollars, sounds like a lot of money poured into some research to try and provide validity, but they probably also could take some pictures of guys wearing white lab coats and get the same results. the “tri-phasic filtration” and “micro-diffuse” technologies sound like horse crap to me and just allow them to put a higher price on the product cause it’s more sciency stuff. really the only good thing they said in the entire review is that there is more leucine and more BCAAs, which have been proven with a ton of research and a lot of published studies to have results.
