Should I be getting a buzz from taking creatine?
What brand of creatine/in what shake? Creatine itself will not give any type of rush at all. It works at a cellular level and is not something that can be felt.
Some unscrupulous companies, however, know that consumers want to feel a rush so they lace their products with caffeine and other stimulants to provide a buzz. That might be the case, or perhaps you are taking it with a post-workout shake. In that case, simply the carbohydrates themselves can provide that rush as your blood sugar climbs sky-high. The creatine itself should not be producing any effect like that.
