This guy had 6 creatine gummy brands tested

2 of the 6 had zero creatine
2 had way less creatine than what was advertised
And two had more creatine per advertised serving
Buyer beware

Unless you're feeding them to a child, why not just use powder?

Some people just can't choke down the powder.
I use the powder, but I keep gummies that I'll occasionally eat instead.

Are they taking it dry?

I looked into them for ease of use. It's easy for me to be consistent with pills/gummies but it's always a struggle to mix powders. I wasn't willing to pay $1+ per serving.

That sucks
The Force Factor gummies are so gross, I find them inedible.

What kind of pussy can’t drink a tasteless powder that damn nearly fully dissolves in water?
Posted on 7/16/25 at 1:47 pm to boxcarbarney
I keep some gummies around as they're easier to eat when I don't feel like mixing and drinking my 200th glass of water with the powder right before bed and waking up to pee
But they are expensive

First of all, lower your voice.
Secondly, it isn't tasteless. I hate the taste of creatine in water. I prefer to dump it in my mouth and chase it with water. Easier for me to take that way.

Do each teaspoon one at a time, rinse with water or bev of choice. What's so hard?

My brother in Christ, I take the powder exactly how you described. I'm saying others have issues taking creatine powder. You may not want to believe it, but its true. I'm sorry to be the one to break the news to you.

Consumer Reports had an article about supplements some years ago.They had several different brands of Ginkgo biloba tested ,the levels were all over the place.Varied from none to very high amounts.
I read a similar report,on red yeast rice,levels varied from none to very high amounts.That’s why it’s not a good idea to take it to lower cholesterol.some brands tested had dangerously high amounts.
I don’t like all the gummy vitamins and supplements being sold now.I always think about some kid getting into them and poisoning theirselves.
I’ve never known anybody that happened to or even read about it but I could very well seeing it happen.

I'll never understand grown adults that can't take creatine powder. Its tasteless when mixed with:
Juice
Soda
Tea
Coffee
Pre-workout
Protein shake
and probably many more things

‘Gummy’ anything in supplement industry is hit or miss. Same thing happened with melatonin gummies some had none and others were way over advertised dose.

There is a lack of consistency in all gummies.

Coffee
I used to mix it in with coffee in the morning. Bought a bag from Johns Killer Protein that included a "pro tip" on the bag (see below, right side of pic, about half way down) that advised against taking with coffee because caffeine counteracts the benefits.
First time I had ever heard that.
