Does creatine interfere with fat loss?

So i'm taking creatine for strength training while trying to cut some fat. Since it's creatine monohydrate and contains a fair amount of dextrose and other simple sugars, might this make fat loss stubborn and less likely to occur effectively?

stick with creatine mono with no fillers and it will aid in fat loss

Quick creatine question:  I basically just take 5g of it post workout and none on non-workout days.  So that's only 15g/week.  Do I need to take more or if I'm not finding myself fatigued, am I okay?  Thx!

would celltech hardcore count as monohydrate with no fillers? also, briefly, how does creatine help with fat loss?

You'll see better results with creatine if you take 5g daily regardless if working out of not.. No need to load it, just cycle on and off.. 8 weeks on and 4 weeks off.. Only taking 5g three days a week is makingit really hard for the creatine to get into your system..

There is never enough time to do everything, but there is always enough time to do the most important thing

 

More muscle means more calories burned.  Creatine builds more muscle.  If I add these up, it would mean that creatine helps burn fat....though not directly.  Remember that you will gain weight on creatine, but what is important is that the extra weight is not fat.
