Can You Take Bone Broth Protein and Creatine Together?
Dose or timing may matter
The short answer
Bone broth protein is high in amino acids (especially glycine and proline) that generate urea, adding to creatine's creatinine clearance demands on the kidneys.
How to arrange timing
Hydrate well (3+ L/day). This combination is common in sports nutrition and is generally safe with adequate water intake.

Important context
Whether supplements suit you together also depends on dose, product formulation, health conditions, and medication use. Ask a doctor or pharmacist first if you take medication, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have a chronic condition.
