I will be doing dianabol and test, first time ever taking dbol and 99% of articles about it say it the steroids that causes higher water retention, I was wondering if my diet should be really low in salt of should I completely discard salt from diet when cooking my meals, my second question is if creatine can be taken while running dbol, I also have seen info about creatine creates some kind of water retention and bloating, thank you for your help.
a good quality creatine like ancient strength taken correctly is never a bad idea and totally safe on or off cycle
what you need to do is run an AI from day 1 to help fight off that aromatization. it will come and come fast with that stack.

People will retain water from steroids when they use steroids without the proper support supplements.
Both testosterone and dbol are very estrogenic compounds. You need to include an AI with your cycle to keep estrogen in the low-normal range. This will prevent estrogen related side effects like gyno and water retention. Aromasin at 10mg EOD is a good dosage. Start the AI on day 1 of your cycle and run it throughout your entire cycle.
Salt is an extremely important electrolyte that is needed for muscle contractions. You should not eat an absurd amount of sodium but you shouldn't limit it either.
Creatine will cause no water retention and bloating if you are using the proper dosage. Use 5-10g per day. There is no need to load or cycle creatine.

Dbol causes water retention due to its aromatization into estrogen. Sodium can also cause water retention but those are completely different causes. If you run an AI then you can control estrogen. If you are eating a typical bodybuilder's diet then you will be just fine as far as sodium. Obviously make sure you are drinking a lot of water but that goes without saying when on cycle.

You can always take creatine, whether on a cycle or not. As long as you dont exceed 10g per day, it should not lead to any excessive water retention.
Also, salt intake should be moderate but never limit it too much, as your body needs salts nevertheless.
Most of the water retention that people get from test & dbol is due to high estrogen which they do not control. You need aromasin/arimidex for that and you can get those from ag-guys
The above posters covered this pretty well.
I just want to add something about Sodium Intake.
Make sure you are getting your Sodium from Sea Salt that you put on your Food.
Be very careful with any Processed or Boxed Foods, as most are very high in Sodium.
I've seen some Processed Foods with over 2,000 Mg per servings............................... JP
P.S.
Also, if you go out to eat, ask them for their Sodium amounts if not posted.
I go to the Hard Rock Cafe on occasion, and the amount of Sodium in most of their Foods is Insane.

Why is everyone so worried about the water weight? As long as you have your estrogen under control you are not going to look like the marshmallow man, just a bigger version of yourself! You will get comments enjoy it!
The only downsides I can see are
- Its kind of obvious you are on something when your weight jumps 10lbs overnight then you lose it just as quick several weeks later
- Cardio can take a bit of a hit at first as you are heavier but use this as an opportunity to force your cardio into better shape!
- You are the type to put way too much stock onto the number on the scale and you get depressed when it goes down at the end.
- You are too fat to begin with.
If I found a lantern with a magic genie in it one of my 3 wishes was that dbol wasn't so liver toxic. That shit is amazing.
