Guest guest Posted April 7, 2003 Report Share Posted April 7, 2003 Hi All - For my supps, I am currently taking Betagen, CLA, and flaxseed oil. Betagen contains both phosphagen creatine and HMB. I've heard some women feeling bloated taking this - has anyone felt this way with Betagen or does it work well with you? I just started taking this today and have had one serving. I will probably only do two servings a day. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 7, 2003 Report Share Posted April 7, 2003 I take BG too. I don't notice the bloating so much. I do 2 - 2.5 servings a day. That's all you really need. Your body can't absorb more than about 5g of creatine a day. > Hi All - > > For my supps, I am currently taking Betagen, CLA, and flaxseed oil. > Betagen contains both phosphagen creatine and HMB.

Guest guest Posted April 7, 2003 Report Share Posted April 7, 2003 Have you noticed a difference with the BG? I think I'll try 2 servings a day and see how it goes. thanks. > > Hi All - > > > > For my supps, I am currently taking Betagen, CLA, and flaxseed oil. > > Betagen contains both phosphagen creatine and HMB.

Guest guest Posted April 7, 2003 Report Share Posted April 7, 2003 I think so. Strength is better and soreness is reduced. Although I did a new leg workout last Tuesday and was sore for 4 days despite taking Betagen. I do notice a visible difference in my arms when I take it -- the shape/pump is better. > > > Hi All - > > > > > > For my supps, I am currently taking Betagen, CLA, and flaxseed > oil. > > > Betagen contains both phosphagen creatine and HMB.

Guest guest Posted April 7, 2003 Report Share Posted April 7, 2003 When I went to buy the small container of Betagen that sells for $18.00, I was told the company is no longer offering that. The only size available is the super large tub for $50.00. :-( Re: BetaGen I think so. Strength is better and soreness is reduced.

Guest guest Posted April 7, 2003 Report Share Posted April 7, 2003 That's odd. I ordered the large tub and they sent me 3 of the small ones!

Guest guest Posted April 7, 2003 Report Share Posted April 7, 2003 They were probably trying to get rid of the little ones. The Betagen has a NEW IMPROVED next to it on Planet Depot, so retailers were probably trying to deplete their old supply. > > > > > Hi All - > > > > > > > > > > For my supps, I am currently taking Betagen, CLA, and > flaxseed > > > oil. > > > > > Betagen contains both phosphagen creatine and HMB.

Guest guest Posted September 15, 2003 Report Share Posted September 15, 2003 I was told by EAS to take Betagen twice a day. An hour before lifting weights and within and hour after lifting weights and on cardio days, I was told to take it an hour after cardio and before going to bed. I follow that advice, but also take it a 3rd time on weightlifting days before I go to bed. I find it easier to remember all my doses when I do it that way. I do have a question about Betagen. My husband commented to me the other day that the creatine in it increases testostorone levels in men, thus increasing sex drive. I was wondering if anyone knows if it increases testosterone levels in women. I have noticed that my voice is a bit lower and thought the creatine might be causing that. I also wondered if it is unhealthy for a woman to have increased testotosterone levels. Has anyone experienced any negative effects of taking Betagen?
