Creatine gummies for women? Thoughts on LEMME's new product?
Just saw this article about LEMME launching creatine gummies for women. As a wellness influencer, I'm curious if this is a game-changer or just hype? Anyone tried creatine for workouts? I usually stick to collagen and B vitamins, but this sounds interesting. What do you all think?
Creatine is well-researched for strength and recovery, but women often underdose. Gummies might be convenient, but check the serving size— most gummies have like 1g per serving, while effective dose is 3-5g/day. Also, bioavailability? I'd rather mix powder. But if it gets more women lifting, I'm all for it.
Bigger issue is the environmental impact. Gummies mean more plastic packaging and sugar. Why not just buy bulk creatine powder in a recyclable bag? Less waste, cheaper, and you can control dose. Plus, most gummies have artificial flavors and dyes. Pass.
Honestly, I just want something that doesn't taste like chalk. I tried creatine powder once and nearly puked. Gummies sound way more palatable. But yeah, if they're only 1g each, I'd have to eat a handful. Still, might be worth it if it helps me recover from my coffee-fueled workouts lol.
