Checked against public sources on August 8, 2026 · LookCloser does not sell or recommend supplements.
Does the marketing hold up?
FDA recall appears in this brand's history. An exact-product recall is a direct signal. A different product from the same firm is company context, not a strike against this item.
“Couldn’t verify” means we looked and found no public proof — not a mark against the product. Most supplement claims cannot be independently verified by anyone, so grey is the normal state of this industry.

We read 11 lines from the package photograph. It is our transcript of the label, not the manufacturer’s panel, and it may be incomplete.
1 promise needs a closer look.
Published research exists for ingredients in this formula. Whether this product’s doses match those studies could not be confirmed.
Ingredient research can support context, but it is not a trial of this exact product.
We found no named, citable study of this product or formula. The claim may rest on ingredient research rather than a trial of this product.
Headlines first. Open evidence only when you want the source trail.
An exact-product recall is a direct signal. A different product from the same firm is company context, not a strike against this item.
This recall is not about the product on this page. GNC Holdings LLC recalled a different product on April 25, 2025. FDA has since closed that case. The recalled item was “GNC Women's 30+ Vitapak, Carton of 30 Sachets. Each sachet contains four tablets and a capsule.…”
Locked evidence record →Open the full source-linked findingThe public ownership record is ambiguous. We show the exact candidates instead of choosing one by name similarity.
USPTO returned multiple live supplement-class records for the exact brand wordmark: General Nutrition Investment Company, GNC Holdings, LLC. These records answer who owns registrations for the brand; the separate product-to-owner or manufacturer link remains open.
Locked evidence record →Open the full source-linked findingEvery ingredient shows its real amount — nothing is hidden in a proprietary blend.
The panel gives a per-ingredient amount rather than hiding quantities inside a proprietary blend, so each one can be compared to published research.
Locked evidence record →Open the full source-linked findingThe barcode matches, so we are checking the right product rather than a look-alike.
Open Food Facts resolves 048107257682 to "CREABOLIC" (GNC AMP) — consistent with this listing.
Locked evidence record →Open the full source-linked findingA count that moves steadily is ordinary. A sudden burst is what deserves a closer look.
Written reviews rose from 0 to 8 between January 30 and July 14, 2026. The largest rise inside any single 30-day window was about 1, so the count moved in steps rather than in one burst.

These are the USPTO records behind the brand name. We show them all rather than choosing one by similarity.

We could not match an amount on this product to a studied range for the same ingredient, so these links are ingredient background rather than a measurement of this product.
Not a score. Studies disagree with each other and change over time, so this sits beside the evidence rather than counting toward it — it is here so you can read the sources yourself.
The panel lists 5 g of creatine monohydrate per serving. Studies we found used 3 g–5 g a day, so this sits inside that range.
Study ranges differ between trials and change as research changes. This is background reading, not a pass, a failure, or a recommendation.
