The creatine gummy trend has been spreading as quickly as the hydration category and clear protein did over the last couple of years, where brands from all corners of the industry are coming out with what is usually the same as the last. There have been concerns about the production and inevitable breakdown of creatine in the format due to the heavy heat gummies go through to be made as well as the natural pH they sit at.
Weider in Europe is the latest to get into the creatine gummy game with Premium Creatine Gummies, another pectin-based competitor, although it does have a premium touch as per the name. The popular sports nutrition brand has put high-quality, German Creapure creatine monohydrate instead of standard creatine. In a three-piece serving you get 3.5g of Creapure, providing 3g of actual creatine to build muscle strength and size.
That 3g is obviously not the usual 5g, so if you want to get up to that level, you’ll need to consume five of the sweet Cherry Pop-flavored gummies. As usual, there is some nutrition to the innovation, but not much at 1.5g of carbohydrates across three pieces, a gram of that sugar. The price is relatively high for this one, especially compared to others at €14.99 (16.17 USD) for a jar of 20 servings or 12 if you want that 5g of Creapure.
