There is some concern that combining creatine with caffeine and the herb ephedra (also called Ma Huang) might increase the chance of having serious side effects such as stroke.
Concrete retained in forms or covered with insulation seldom loses enough moisture at 40 to 55 degrees Fahrenheit) to impair curing. However, drying from low wintertime humidities and heaters used in enclosures is a concern.
Allow Proper Time to Water Cure. After concrete is placed, the concrete increases in strength very quickly for a period of 3-7 days. Concrete which is moist cured for 7 days is about 50% stronger than uncured concrete. Read about properly curing concrete slabs. Water curing can be done after the slab pour by building dams with soil around the house and flooding the slab. The enclosed area is continually flooded with water. Ideally, the slab could be water cured for 7 days.Some builders on a tight schedule water cure for 3 days as this achieves approximately 80% of the benefit of water curing for 7 days. Consider planning your job to pour at the end of the week, build berms, then flood over the weekend.
