Anyone here use creatine pills? Name brand is ON (Optimal Nutrition) Wife ordered the wrong thing and I assume I can just bust them open and mix with my drink right?
I’m also assuming the other ingredients listed on the label are what the capsule is made of, am I correct in this thinking?

you can just take the pills, not gonna hurt anything but yea should be just creatine in the capsules.

Yea, I think you have that right. ON is a solid company. I don't think their creatine is creapure anymore, but they are still a quality company so their stuff is perfectly fine and tested. I'd assume the other ingredients are for what makes up the capsules as well.

Does creapure have additional benefits?
Posted on 6/2/26 at 1:24 pm to WillFerrellisking
It is essentially a purity standard at this point. Creapure basically certifies that whatever brand's creatine is 99.9% pure. It is a german based creatine and they have somewhat applied their beer purity laws to creatine for lack of a better way to describe what it means.
There isn't any added benefit to creapure other than certainty around its purity. There are still very good creatine brands that aren't creapure, but you just have to do some extra research because they will generally get their creatine from China and they can be not so pure
. ON is a good company though, so their stuff is still good.

Nah. All natural. Hard work and good food. No pills or gummies. Sets a bad example for kids in my opinion. He’s young man. Nature will help him out. But of course this is America where everyone wants a pill for everything

that is the dumbest thing i have ever heard
hey son....dont take the vitamins and minerals you cant get enough of in food....you might think its ok to take other pills
i literally hate when people are like you are. Cant take anything...god forbid that we take something that can help us. its not wanting a pill for everything...its realizing that we can not get enough creatine through our diet to fully see all the benifits. just like taking a vitamin, you take it to optimize the levels.

Creatine is completely safe and if you are both eating a lot of red meat you're already getting a good bit. It's not a steroid or anything close to that, it helps the muscle produce more energy at the cellular level...
With the gummies you'll want 5grams a day, I think taking them with your post-workout meal/shake is best but you/he may notice something works better for him. Tell him to drink the BCAA's DURING his workouts. It would be a disaster to take that post-workout instead of a solid shake (50g protein 50g carb) or balanced meal. Everyone will focus on protein (so make sure he's drinking a ton of water) but don't let him neglect his carbohydrates and he should have a great time and be happy with his progress.
