The Science

Why most creatine gummies don't actually work — and what we did about it.

Independent lab tests found leading creatine gummy brands with 0% of their stated creatine. We spent months figuring out why — and how to fix it.

Daye creatine gummies

The Problem

Why most creatine gummies fail

In 2025 supplement testing platform SuppCo tested the bestselling creatine gummies on Amazon. The results were alarming: 4 out of 6 brands were severely underdosed — two contained zero creatine.

"Creatine gummies performed terribly. Most can be described as lacking quality control."

— SuppCo Independent Lab Report, 2025

The reason? Creatine monohydrate degrades in a gummy matrix. Gummies are acidic and moist — exactly the conditions that break down monohydrate before you ever eat it.

The Solution

Why Daye uses Creatine HCl

Stable in gummy form

HCl is 10–38× more soluble than monohydrate. It doesn't degrade in an acidic gummy matrix — you get the full dose every time.

No loading phase

Superior absorption means your muscles saturate efficiently without the 5–7 day loading protocol monohydrate requires.

No bloating

HCl's smaller effective dose and better absorption dramatically reduce water retention and GI discomfort.

Better absorbed

More creatine reaches your muscle cells and brain. What your body can't absorb it doesn't use.
