It says not to consume caffeine while taking creatine, but M&F recommends in most articles on supplements creatine and green tea.

I am pretty sure green tea contains caffeine.

Does anyone know if green tea consumption affects the benfits in consuming creatine?
 
there was a study done that did show caffeine interfered , but it was later revealed that the study was bias

creatine and green tea , you'll be right , the caffeine wont have effect
 
Ah thats good to hear.

What about coffee? For sure that effects it. I remember drinking coffee while taking creatine before I read the container.

I was peeing all the time.
 
I currently drink 3 - 4 cups of green tea a day, and take creatien prior to my workouts. no issues noticed from my end.

It is said that while green tea is high in caffeine it alos contains a chemical that actually blocks the effects of the caffine, which is why you dont get the rush or energy as you do from coffee or black tea.
