Assembly Bill 2030 (AB 2030) on September 28, prohibiting the sale of over-the-counter (OTC) diet pills and dietary supplements for weight loss or muscle building to anyone under 18.1 Authored by Assemblymember Josh Lowenthal, the bill was among 10 health-related measures the governor signed the same day.
The governor's office said nonprescribed, medically unapproved products of this type can cause harmful side effects and are frequently mislabeled or contaminated with ingredients such as steroids. It cited figures indicating that nearly 1 in 10 adolescents have used such products and that youth who use OTC diet pills are 6 times more likely than nonusers to be diagnosed with an eating disorder within 3 years.

Big Pharma strikes again. The American medical system is so corrupt. We want to get you addicted to drugs, not the street dealers.

An OTC supplement for teenagers is dangerous and needs to be controlled, but hormone medication to help young kids change genders is reasonable at any age

The same people who pushed this law also believe men can get pregnant

That is incredibly stupid. All creatine does is open capillaries in the muscles to allow a more free flow of water, blood and nutrients to feed muscles with the body's own rebuilding minerals and proteins from your food diet after a workout creates tiny microscopic tears in stretched muscles to help them rebuild and grow. What are they concerned with? Physical fitness?

There have been a lot of recent studies showing the positive effects creatine has on the brain for all ages.
Conveniently the government is now intervening on creating. Makes you think

Gym culture is right wing.
Progressives aren’t the ones using creatine.

Yep
Recent research suggests it can even help with Alzheimer's
People into nootropics are adding it to their regimen because reports show it is very good at increasing brain activity

Yes, but if you want to cut your dick off as a minor, have at it...

Minorities are so ####ed. No creatine for them apparently

How do they prove they’re over 18? A racist ID?

There’s not a lot of good studies on use under the age 18 (particularly with adolescents). We know creatine is healthy for adults to use, when used properly. It can frick up your kidneys if you’re overusing it (saw that happen to a football player I worked with as a trainer when creatine first got big) and a teenager using it should probably be supervised doing so.
That said, it sounds like it got caught up in the effort to reduce issues with shitty supplements. And an age verification was probably easier to institute than regulation standards for supplements. Especially when you consider how much money the “health and wellness” folks generate in California.
