What is in Bloom creatine powder?

Bloom Creatine Monohydrate gives 5 g of creatine monohydrate per scoop, 40 scoops a tub, in two versions. The Unflavored tub lists a 5.15 g scoop with creatine monohydrate as the only item on the Supplement Facts panel. The Raspberry Lemon tub lists a 6.35 g scoop (254 g net) and adds natural flavours, malic acid and stevia leaf extract (Reb A).¹ Both carry "100% micronized" and "third party tested" marks, and the panels add non-GMO, gluten-free and vegan-friendly badges.

Micronised creatine is ordinary creatine monohydrate milled to a finer powder, so it mixes into water with less grit. It is the same molecule, and the dose that matters is still the 5 g of creatine monohydrate on the panel. What Bloom's page does not tell you is where the creatine comes from: there is no named raw material (such as Creapure from Germany or Creavitalis), only "micronized creatine monohydrate". That is common in the US market and not a problem in itself, but it does mean you are relying on Bloom's own quality control, which is why testing matters (see below).

Bloom describes the powder as "essential for women's wellness" and suggests mixing it into water, smoothies, juice or its Greens powder, at any time of day. The label serving is simply one scoop a day. Bloom's own store showed 234 reviews for the powder averaging 4.7 out of 5 on 11 November 2026, with taste and mixing the most common praise.¹

Bloom creatine gummies review: dose, sweeteners and stability

Bloom Creatine Gummies give 5 g of creatine monohydrate in a 3-gummy serving, with 30 calories, 10 g of total carbohydrate and 10 mg of sodium, according to the Crisp Apple Supplement Facts panel. The pouch is labelled zero sugar: the sweetness comes from maltitol syrup, isomalt and xylitol, which are sugar alcohols, plus steviol glycosides. The gummies are pectin based and labelled vegetarian friendly.²

Three points are worth knowing before you buy. First, 5 g in 3 gummies is a full standard dose, more than many gummies on the market: Create lists 4.5 g per 3 gummies on its panel.⁶ Second, sugar alcohols such as maltitol and xylitol can cause wind or loose stools in some people when eaten in larger amounts, so if you are sensitive to sugar-free sweets, start with the powder. Third, a gummy is a moist product, and creatine slowly turns into creatinine (which does not do what creatine does) faster when water activity and temperature are higher.^11,12 That is why independent tests of creatine gummies have found some well below their label claims, and why a finished-product test result matters more for a gummy than for a tub of dry powder.

Customer feedback is weaker for the gummies than for the powder: on 11 November 2026 Bloom's own store showed 93 reviews for the gummies averaging 3.9 out of 5, against 4.7 for the powder.² We have not tested Bloom's gummies ourselves and make no claim about their contents beyond the label. For the format question in general, our comparison of creatine gummies vs powder vs capsules covers the research on each.

Is Bloom creatine third party tested?

Bloom says yes, but it does not show the evidence. Both creatine labels carry a "third party tested" mark, and Bloom's FAQ says its products "are rigorously tested" and "verified to meet specifications for identity, purity, strength and composition", and are made in GMP-certified facilities that follow FDA standards.³ On 11 November 2026 neither creatine product page named the testing lab, gave a batch result or linked a certificate of analysis.

We also checked the NSF Certified for Sport product database, which athletes use to find products tested for banned substances and label accuracy. On 11 November 2026 it listed Bloom's Sparkling Energy drinks but no Bloom creatine product. Thorne's creatine and Create's creatine gummies were both listed.^4,5 That does not mean Bloom's creatine fails any test; it means a buyer cannot check the result. If you are a tested athlete, choose a creatine that carries a sport certification, or ask Bloom for the certificate for your batch before you buy.

Sources: bloomnu.com product pages and FAQ, thorne.com, the NSF Certified for Sport product database, and our own batch report, all read on 11 November 2026.^1,3,4,5

Our article on why creatine purity matters explains what a good certificate of analysis shows, including the impurities (creatinine, dicyandiamide, dihydrotriazine) that a named raw material is specified against.

"When a label says third party tested, ask which lab did the testing, what they tested for, and whether you can see the certificate for your batch. Creatine monohydrate is one of the most researched supplements there is, so the question worth asking is not whether creatine works but whether the tub holds what the label says. A brand that shares its results makes that easy to check."

Bloom creatine price: what 5 g of creatine costs

Bloom's powder costs $19.99 for 40 servings, or $16.99 on a subscription (15% off, every 30, 60 or 90 days), which is about $0.50 per 5 g of creatine, or $0.42 subscribed. The gummies cost $19.99 for a 36-gummy pouch (12 servings) or $39.99 for 90 gummies (30 servings), which is $1.67 and $1.33 per 5 g, before the same 15% subscription discount.^1,2 Bloom's US orders ship free. The table works out the same figure for each product from its own label and list price, so you can compare like with like.

Read on 11 November 2026 from each brand's own product page and facts panel: bloomnu.com, trycreate.co, thorne.com, and our UK and US stores.^1,2,5,6 Price per 5 g = pack price divided by total creatine in the pack, in 5 g portions. Bracketed prices are each brand's subscription price (for our products, the first Subscribe & Save order, 10% off); Bloom's 90-gummy subscription figure applies its stated 15%. We do not convert currencies: each price is shown in the currency the brand's own store charges.

Two things stand out. Bloom's powder is one of the cheapest creatines per gram here, level with Thorne and below our own powder on our US store, so if price per gram is your only test, it does well. And the gummy format roughly triples the cost of the same 5 g: $1.33 to $1.67 a day against $0.50 for Bloom's own powder. That is a fair trade only if a gummy is what keeps you taking creatine every day.

Is Bloom creatine only for women?

No. Bloom markets its creatine to women ("essential for women's wellness"), but the product is plain creatine monohydrate, and creatine monohydrate is the same supplement for men and women. Nothing in the formula is sex-specific: the unflavoured tub is creatine and nothing else.¹

Bloom's gummy page says women have "70-80% lower creatine stores than men". That figure comes from a 2021 review of creatine in women's health, which reported 70 to 80% lower endogenous creatine stores in females and summarised evidence that creatine supplementation appears effective for strength and exercise performance in pre-menopausal women.⁹ It is a reason women may find creatine worth trying, not a reason to buy a women's brand: the research uses ordinary creatine monohydrate at ordinary doses. Our guide to creatine for men and women covers the differences, and our best creatine for women comparison puts Bloom's category of products side by side.

"Creatine is not a men's or a women's supplement. The research uses the same creatine monohydrate at around 3 to 5 g a day for both, so women do not need a special version. Choose the format you will take every day, and pick a pack that is clear about exactly what is in each serving."

Does Bloom creatine cause bloating?

At 5 g a day, Bloom creatine is unlikely to cause lasting bloating, for the same reason as any other creatine monohydrate at that dose. Bloom's page answers "Not ours!" and says products "formulated for men" cause bloating through higher doses. The evidence is simpler: creatine can increase the water held inside muscle, mostly during a high-dose loading phase of about 20 g a day, and a review of common creatine questions found little evidence that it causes lasting water retention at normal daily doses.⁸ Any 5 g creatine, Bloom's or anyone else's, taken daily without loading, is the lower-risk route. With the gummies, the sugar alcohols are the more likely cause of a bloated feeling than the creatine. Our article on whether creatine causes bloating goes into the studies.

How much Bloom creatine should you take? Creatine dose for UK and US readers

One scoop of powder or 3 gummies a day (5 g) is a sensible daily amount for most adults, taken at any time of day; there is no need to load. Creatine has no NRV in the UK and no RDA in the US, because it is not an essential nutrient: the body makes some, and meat and fish supply more. The figures that do exist are these.

• UK: the authorised health claim on the Great Britain nutrition and health claims register is that creatine increases physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high intensity exercise. It applies to adults performing high intensity exercise and is based on a daily intake of 3 g.¹³ Bloom's pack statements about strength, recovery and cognitive function are US structure/function statements carried with the FDA disclaimer; they are not authorised claims in Great Britain.
• US: the NIH Office of Dietary Supplements fact sheet on supplements for exercise and athletic performance reports few safety concerns at typical doses, including loading at about 20 g a day for up to 7 days and 3 to 5 g a day for up to 12 weeks.¹⁴ A separate risk assessment set an observed safe level of 5 g a day for long-term daily use.¹⁰
• Research consensus: the International Society of Sports Nutrition position stand describes either loading at about 0.3 g per kg of body weight a day for 5 to 7 days and then 3 to 5 g a day, or 3 to 5 g a day from the start.⁷ The classic study found 3 g a day reached the same muscle creatine level as loading, more slowly, over about 28 days.¹⁵

Bloom's own timeline promises visible changes at 2, 4, 6 and 12 weeks. A fairer expectation is that muscle creatine stores rise over the first few weeks at 3 to 5 g a day, and any performance benefit shows up in high intensity training. Taking it every day matters more than timing. Our guides on how to take creatine and whether you need to load creatine cover timing and loading, and signs of too much creatine covers the upper end.

Can you buy Bloom creatine in the UK?

Not from Bloom directly. Bloom's site carries a "Now shipping worldwide" banner, but when we set its store to the United Kingdom on 11 November 2026, both the creatine powder and creatine gummies pages returned "page not found", while the same pages loaded with US dollar prices for the United States and Canadian dollar prices for Canada.¹ Bloom also says it does not accept returns on international orders.³

If you are in the UK and want what Bloom offers, the closest equivalents are a single-ingredient creatine monohydrate powder, such as our Creavitalis Creatine Powder at £0.67 per 5 g, or a chewable, such as our Creapure Creatine Chews, a dry chewable tablet with 5 g per serving. Our chews use dextrose rather than sugar alcohols, by design: taking creatine with carbohydrate has been shown to increase how much creatine the muscles store, which suits taking them around training.¹⁶ If you are cutting sugar, choose powder or capsules instead.

Bloom creatine vs the alternatives: which should you buy?

Buy Bloom's powder if you are in the US or Canada, want a cheap, nicely flavoured or plain creatine monohydrate, and do not need a named raw material or a published test. Skip Bloom's gummies unless the format is the only way you will take creatine: they triple the cost and rate lower with Bloom's own customers. Choose a certified or published-test product if you are a tested athlete or simply want to see the result.

How we checked

We read every Bloom figure from Bloom's own product pages, Supplement Facts images and FAQ on 11 November 2026, using each product's standard pack and list price, and took subscription prices from the same pages. We checked UK availability by setting Bloom's store to the United Kingdom, the United States and Canada in turn and loading both creatine pages. Create and Thorne figures come from their own product pages read the same night. We have not lab-tested any Bloom, Create or Thorne product and make no claim about their contents beyond their labels and certification listings. Our figures come from our printed labels and our Eurofins report for the chews. Prices per 5 g were calculated from pack price and total creatine per pack and rounded to the nearest cent or penny.
