respectfully, your dad doesnt know what hes talking about. monohydrate works the same but is more cost effective

And by a ton, just get at least 64 oz, or 128 if you’re active or live in a hot place

w creatine it’s recommended you drink the amount your body needs plus an additional like 24oz so if you want it to really work, keeping track is very important

if you don't do a loading phase you will probably be fine. if you're nervous you can always get a small container and try it
