Creatine Gummies verdict
The gummy trend's dirty secret: most pack only 1.5–4g per serving because 5g of creatine won't fit in a few gummies, and heat/moisture can degrade it to creatinine on the shelf. You pay a big premium for an underdose in candy form. Buy the powder and stir it into anything.
Creatine verdict
Genuinely great quality — Creapure monohydrate, third-party certified — and the 5g dose is perfect. But it's still just creatine monohydrate at a premium price. The certification is worth something to tested athletes; for everyone else, bulk monohydrate is the same molecule for a fraction.
