Looking for creatine near you in Denver, Colorado Springs, or Wichita? You can find creatine gummies, powders, and other performance supplements at your local Supplement Giant.
Here’s what you need to know before you buy.
Creatine is a supplement staple. It’s one of the most researched supplements in sports nutrition. It’s proven to support strength, endurance, and new research is even suggesting brain health.
Now a new version is popping up on the shelves: creatine gummies.
You’ve probably been wondering: are they legit or just candy with a supplement label? Well, that’s why I'm here. To answer your creatine gummy questions.
What Are Creatine Gummies?
Creatine gummies are just creatine in gummy form. They’re an easy way to take creatine without having to mix powders or chug gritty drinks. Inside most gummies is the same creatine monohydrate that’s in your classic creatine powder.
Do Creatine Gummies Actually Work?
Yes, if it's from a reputable brand. To get the full benefits of any creatine supplement, you’ll need to have 3-5 grams of creatine per day.
Are Creatine Gummies Better Than Powder?
That depends on you. Let’s look at Creatine Gummies vs Creatine Powder
| Factor | Gummies | Powder |
|---|---|---|
| Convenience | ✅Easy, no shaker, no water needed | ❌ Requires mixing |
| Cost | 💰 More expensive per gram | 💵 Cheaper bulk option |
| Taste | 👍 Candy-like | 😬 Can be gritty or unflavored |
| Absorption | ⚖️ Same (creatine is creatine) | ⚖️ Same |
If you workout regularly and want something easy, gummies are probably worth the trade-off of higher cost per gram of creatine. If you’re chasing value and don’t mind mixing powder, stick to the original.
How to Take Creatine Gummies
Creatine doesn’t need to be timed perfectly. You can take your gummies:
- Before or after a workout
- With a meal
- Any time of day, just be consistent
Shoot for 3–5 grams every day, for at least 3-4 weeks to see full strength and performance benefits.
Do I Need to “Load” Creatine Gummies?
No. The old-school “20 g per day for 5 days” loading phase isn’t necessary. Just take your regular serving daily. Your muscles will reach saturation in a few weeks.
Who Should Use Creatine Gummies?
Creatine works for almost everyone, but gummies are ideal for:
- People who skip creatine because of taste or the inconvenience of mixing
- Athletes who want a quick and easy option
- Anyone who wants a simple way to stay consistent
Any Downsides or Side Effects?
The only real drawback is price. You’re paying a bit more per gram for better taste and convenience. As far as side effects go, creatine is pretty safe for healthy adults when used correctly. You might notice some water retention or stomach discomfort if you take too much at once. So stick to the recommended dosage.
