How to read this report
What this is. We compare what a listing claims against what public records show — label arithmetic, barcode registries, NIH’s label catalog, FDA enforcement data, certification registries, and published research. Every statement below traces to one of those.
What the states mean. Confirmed = an outside source agrees. Contradicted = an outside source disagrees. Caution = something needs explaining. No data = we looked and found nothing — a gap, not a strike.
What it is not. A clean record is not an endorsement and never proof a product works. A thin record is not an accusation. We publish evidence and gaps; the conclusion is yours. Nothing here is medical advice.
Something wrong? Every figure is meant to be checkable — sources are named and linked. Send a correction and we’ll fix the record.
Every check we ran
Intake method matches the research
Nothing in this listing contradicts how these ingredients were studied (creatine monohydrate). For example, creatine monohydrate: studied as a daily supplement — the effect comes from muscle saturation over weeks, not from timing a dose before a workout. Sources: NIH ODS — Exercise & Athletic Performance fact sheet, ISSN position stand on creatine (PubMed).
Each ingredient’s amount is disclosed
The panel gives a per-ingredient amount rather than hiding quantities inside a proprietary blend, so each one can be compared to published research.
Pack math confirmed from the label
90 servings × 5 g = 450 g, matching the printed net weight 450 g (NET WT 16 OZ (450 G)). Any different figure in the marketplace’s shipping-weight field describes packaging, not the product.
UPC independently corroborated
Open Food Facts resolves 693749006350 to "Creatine" (THORNE) — consistent with this listing.
No data yet: Label math could not be verified
What this means: the listing doesn't publish unit count, dose claim, so the dose claim can't be checked against physics from public data. That's neither a pass nor a strike — but it does mean you're taking the label on faith. Checkable products publish these numbers.
No data yet: Review authenticity: not yet analyzed
Marketplace rating 4.7★ across 17,058 ratings. Authenticity not analysed: burst, purge and stockout patterns need price/review history.
Not found in NIH's DSLD label registry
The NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database has no matching label yet. Ingestion lags the market — recorded as a gap, not a strike.
Brand holds NSF/ANSI 173 certification (brand-level)
Thorne® appears in NSF’s certified-products registry with 10 certified product(s), but we couldn’t confirm this exact listing is among them. Closest listed product: “Thorne® Women's Libido Boost”. Certification covers contents and contaminants — not effectiveness.
What the listing promises — claim by claim
Why is this shown?
| Claim | Status | What we found |
|---|---|---|
| Benefit claim “…e - Micronized Creatine Monohydrate Powder - Support for Muscles & Cognitive Function* - for Wome…” | Partly supported We looked for: whether the ingredient doses on the label match the doses used in published research | Published research exists for ingredients in this formula — see Related research below. Whether this product’s doses match those studies could not be confirmed. |
“No evidence located” does not mean a claim is false — it means the seller has not put evidence proportionate to the claim on the public record, and we could not find any. Absence of proof is not proof of absence.
This label vs. the doses studied
Why is this shown?
| Ingredient | Where this label sits | Reading |
|---|---|---|
| Creatine Monohydrate | shaded = doses used in studies (3 g–5 g) · bar = this label | 5 g — within the studied range |
Matching a studied dose does not mean the product works, and missing it does not mean it fails — it shows whether the label and the research are talking about the same amounts. Not a recommendation to take any amount.
Verifiability profile — 3 of 6 public signals
What this listing gives the public to check. Publishing these signals doesn't prove quality — but withholding them means claims can only be taken on faith.

Ingredient science — creatine monohydrate · Grade A
- Evidence: Human RCT meta-analyses (5+ indexed in PubMed for strength outcomes; ISSN position stand). PMID 40265319 · PMID 37144634 · PMID 39545789
- Studied serving: 3–5 g/day maintenance (≈0.03 g/kg); optional loading 20 g/day split ×4 for 5–7 days.
- Absorption: Creatine monohydrate is ~99% orally bioavailable when delivered intact — absorption is not the limiting factor; delivery-medium stability is.
- Delivery medium: Creatine is stable as a DRY powder but hydrolyzes toward creatinine (inactive) in warm, moist, or acidic media. A gummy is an aqueous, often acidic matrix — the documented reason independent testing finds many creatine gummies far below label.
- Kidney disease: consult a clinician before use.; Pregnancy/lactation: safety not established at supplemental doses.; Combine with adequate hydration.
