if you're looking into creatine, get a monohydrate powder, specifically from optimum nutrition, universal nutrition, or prolab. invest in some protein powder as well.. optimum nutrition has some good stuff.

in terms of your diet, try to get 1- 1.5 grams of protein per lb bodyweight, and 2- 3 grams carbs per lb bodyweight. take in 50- 100 grams of healthy fats, being monounsaturated and polyunsaturated.
