Anyone else get super vivid dreams from creatine gummies?
So I've been taking these creatine gummies for about a week now, and I've noticed my dreams are INSANE. Like, I'm talking full-on cinematic experiences, wake up feeling like I just binge-watched a movie. Is this just me, or has anyone else experienced this? Also, my pee is like neon yellow, but that's supposed to be normal right?
Whoa, that's wild! I've been on creatine pills for years but switched to gummies last month. I haven't gotten vivid dreams, but my taste buds are totally off. Like, I used to love coffee, now it tastes like battery acid. And yeah, the bright pee is a classic - it's just excess creatine, totally harmless. But dreams? That's a new one. Maybe it's the sugar or something in the gummies?
Interesting! I'm a tech nerd, so I did a deep dive on this. Creatine is known to affect neurotransmitters, and some studies suggest it can alter REM sleep. So vivid dreams could be a thing! Also, the neon pee is just your kidneys filtering out unused creatine - no worries. But if it bothers you, maybe try taking them earlier in the day? Also, check if your gummies have any extra stuff like melatonin or weird herbs. Mine do not, but they are sugar-free.
Thanks for the info! I'll try taking them in the morning instead of before bed. And yeah, bright pee is normal - I remember that from when I tried powder creatine years ago. But the dreams are still trippy. Maybe I'll start writing them down, they could make good blog content lol.
