Arnold reveals the "bitter truth" about creatine gummies - most of them are a scam!

In recent months, creatine gummies have flooded the dietary supplement market. For many, they represent a welcome change - an easy and tasty way to get one of the most researched and effective substances for muscle growth and strength. Instead of mixing a powder, you simply eat a few gummy bears.

Only, as Arnold points out, that's where the problem comes in.

The bitter truth hidden under the sweet wrapper

In his popular "Arnold's Pump Club" newsletter, Schwarzenegger takes a hard look at this new trend. He referred to independent lab tests that shone a light on 11 top-selling creatine products (5 powders and 6 in gummy form).

The results were shocking.

While all five creatine powders tested passed with flying colors, containing 98 to 101% of the claimed amount, the gummies were a complete flop. Four of the six gummies tested failed the basic quality tests.

Not grams, but thousandths of a gram

The numbers are alarming. One of the best-selling products on Amazon, which boasted 5 grams of creatine per serving, actually contained just 0.005 grams. That's not even a tenth of a percent of what it promised.

Another popular brand wasn't much better. Instead of the promised dose, it delivered only 0.025 grams of creatine. As Arnold aptly noted, "you'd have to eat 800 of those gummies to get to one regular dose."

To make matters worse, two other products tested contained no detectable creatine at all.

Why do gummies fail?

The problem seems to be in the manufacturing process. Creatine is sensitive to heat and moisture - two key elements in gummy candy production. The manufacturing process itself seems to destroy the active ingredient before it even gets into the packaging.

Tests in the products have revealed elevated levels of creatinine, a waste product that is produced specifically by the breakdown of creatine. The customer is essentially buying expensive and ineffective waste.

Arnold sums it up clearly, "It's not impossible to make a good creatine gummy, but it's very challenging. A lot of brands are obviously cutting corners."

Arnold's advice: Stick to what works

While creatine itself is, according to Arnold, "one of the most studied, safest, and most effective supplements on the planet," its gummy form is a money trap.

His recommendation is therefore quite clear:

"If you want guaranteed results, stick to the tried and tested creatine monohydrate powder."

It's cheap, 100% functional and you know exactly what it contains. Don't be lured by the sweet taste and pretty packaging when in reality you're just buying overpriced candy with no active ingredient.
