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.

Ingredient research can support context, but it is not a trial of this exact product.

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.

Evidence and sources

This recall is not about the product on this page. Lyons Magnus, Inc recalled a different product on July 22, 2022. FDA has since closed that case. The recalled item was “Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% Whey Chocolate 11 fl oz (325mL). UPC 7 48927-06409 4. Shake well.…”

Needs explanationWill you get what you pay for?

Creatine in a gummy can degrade in moist, acidic conditions.

Moist, acidic formats can reduce the active ingredient over time, so the delivered amount may be lower than the label says.

Evidence and sources

Creatine is stable as dry powder, while published stability research shows faster degradation as moisture and temperature rise. A gummy's delivered amount therefore depends on formulation and shelf-life testing; this record does not test this product.

Public contextWho is behind it?

Registered owner records: GLANBIA PERFORMANCE NUTRITION LIMITED · Glanbia Nutritionals (Ireland) Limited (limited company (ltd.); IRELAND)

The public ownership record is ambiguous. We show the exact candidates instead of choosing one by name similarity.

Evidence and sources

USPTO returned multiple live supplement-class records for the exact brand wordmark: GLANBIA PERFORMANCE NUTRITION LIMITED, Glanbia Nutritionals (Ireland) Limited (limited company (ltd.); IRELAND). …

CheckedCan you trust the review pattern?

We can see 4 of this product’s 28 reviews — the count rose between June 23 and July 2, 2026. That is too small a slice to say anything about the wider pattern.

A count that moves steadily is ordinary. A sudden burst is what deserves a closer look.

Evidence and sources

Written reviews rose from 24 to 28 between June 23 and July 2, 2026. The largest rise inside any single 30-day window was about 4, so the count moved in steps rather than in one burst.

What remains open 2
  • We have not found a public label filing for this exact product.
  • Barcode checksum is valid; no independent product record was found.

These are evidence gaps, not strikes against the product.

Research behind the findings

Dose and research context

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.

Background reading

What the research says about these amounts

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.

0studied 3 g–5 g

Study ranges differ between trials and change as research changes. This is background reading, not a pass, a failure, or a recommendation.

Only one exact price was available at build time; prices change by date, seller, and promotion.

The brand-page price is shown as a shopping lead only. It is excluded from the exact-product price difference because the page does not publish this record's matching UPC/GTIN.

The observed listing and related brand page repeat 5 g, 3 gummies. That confirms cross-page consistency of the published claim, not the product contents.
