I have been mixing in creatine monohydrate (5g) and Metamucil with my morning protein shake for the past year or so. I just realized that Metamucil has citric acid which makes it have the orange flavour. I vaguely remember that drinking creatine with OJ decreased effectiveness.

Is there any truth to this and is there any reason for me to seperate those two?

Thanks!
