That's almost double an already supraphysiological level of insulin.
The point of discussing this research is not to recommend the consumption of hundreds of grams of carbs and protein to enhance creatine uptake. But rather, the point is to recognize that a combination product containing moderate amounts of protein, carbs, and certain insulin stimulatory nutrients, may be the future of creatine uptake technology.

Well that dosn't suprise me in the least. If creatine comes from a protein (expecially beef) then why not take it with a protein and a carb. Nice article.
Question, spike insulin and shuttle creatine. How does this work if you ad a protein? Protein will actually slow down insulin spikes. Fcuk, the more I read the less I know.:o
