Nutricost Creatine Monohydrate Powder (Blue Raspberry), 500 Grams (1.1 LBS)

I’ve been using Nutricost Creatine Monohydrate (Blue Raspberry) consistently for several weeks as part of a lean bulk. I’ve tried unflavored before and the taste gets old fast, so the flavored option was a nice change. It mixes reasonably well in a shaker with water or a protein shake — there’s a little settling if you let it sit, but a quick shake fixes it. The blue raspberry flavor is pleasant without being overly sweet or artificial tasting. I take 5g daily and haven’t experienced any bloating or stomach discomfort, which isn’t always the case with creatine. Performance-wise, I’ve noticed better endurance during lifts and slightly improved recovery between sets. It’s not a dramatic “feel it working” supplement, but over time the consistency shows in the gym. The 500g tub is a good size and offers excellent value compared to smaller tubs from bigger brands. Pros: Good solubility for a flavored creatine Pleasant taste that doesn’t get tiring No digestive issues for me Strong value per serving Cons: Still has some grit compared to premium micronized versions Flavor could be a touch stronger for some people If you’re looking for a reliable, affordable creatine with decent flavor, this is a strong choice. I’ll likely repurchase when this tub runs out.

I use this creatine daily and have made it part of my regular workout routine. I actually mix it with Nutricost’s Blue Raspberry pre-workout since they’re the same brand and flavor, and the two work really well together. Solubility/texture: It mixes easily into my pre-workout and I haven’t had an issue with an unpleasant gritty texture. I like being able to combine both powders into one drink instead of taking my creatine separately. Taste: The Blue Raspberry flavor is good and pairs perfectly with the matching Blue Raspberry pre-workout. Mixing the two doesn’t create a weird combination of flavors, which makes taking it every day easy. Effectiveness: Creatine isn’t something I expect to “feel” immediately like a stimulant, but with consistent daily use it has become a staple in my training routine. I’m happy with how I’ve been performing while using it and plan to continue taking it. Energy: I take this alongside a caffeinated pre-workout, so I can’t honestly attribute the immediate energy boost to the creatine itself. I primarily use the creatine for its role in my training and performance over time. Value for money: At 5g per serving and 76 servings in the container, I think the value is very good, especially for something I use every day. Overall, it’s convenient, tastes good, mixes well, and is easy to stay consistent with. Five stars from me.

I was for a time and would like in the future to again become an Amazon vine reviewer, and as result as an official product reviewer, I've tired a lot of health aid products, at no cost. I bought the Nutricost on my own dime, and found it to be the first one to have both IMMEDIATE and DRAMATIC benefits, with the possible exception of some gummy THC products, which I fully expected to be useful, but which were not as dramatically noticeable. CAVEATS 1) All health products including vaccines and prescription drugs have varied effects on users because there is no consistent physiology between any given individual and another. Our mental and physical body chemical functionaries operate on the same principals, but do not share complete and full functional perfection, due to both internal physiological differences (imbalances), and external influences in our lives. What works well for me may not, for you, and vice versa. What is pleasant or unpleasant in effect or senses for one person may be the opposite or different than experienced by another; 2) like most health aids, they are not, by law, able to make specific health claims, and as result, it can seem like a pig in a poke choice, one over another, and a mixed bag of expectations vs reality, in terms of results. My expectations and reality may not match yours. MY EXPECTATIONS: They were well below reality, and (LOL), I only chose this product over another only because of its flavor, and am very glad I did. MY EXPERIENCE: 1) This is the first powder-to-drink product that actually does tastes as good as they claim, even when I added another health aid product which tastes awful on its own. As result, this enable it to be be taken more like a regular glass of water or soft drink, rather than taken as a medical step; 2) the product claims muscular and mental benefit. At age 80, I could use both. I will note here, that I also suffer a neuropathy which makes my feet burn and swell up, and my legs cramp - things semi-muscular in nature. I have enjoyed very noticeable reduction in the burning sensation, and some reduction in swelling. As the later comes and goes, giving credit to Nutricost may be premature; 3) The other health aid I cited was Methylene Blue for mental health, but for me, it did not only not work and tasted bad, but it also turned my urine blue. While I sensed some improvement in mental acuity after the first dose of Nutricost, in the second dose I tossed in the Methylene, and noted a clear improvement. The two products together seem to amplify one another in that respect, so now I'm really getting double return on my money, no longer wasting the investment in Methylene; 4) Like most older men, I suffer urinary issues for which I take Saw Palmetto, with intermittent modest but worthwhile effect. I take it as the problems arise. However, without having taken it for several days, as the issues were 'managable' within an hour of the first glass of Nutricost, I discovered COMPLETELY normal, healthy urinary functioning. This unexpected benefit has remained with me and alone justifies the product, in my case; 5) The product instructions calls for comparatively massive quantities (5 servings) initially, for the first five days, then drops to single dose economy thereafter, but I found remarkable benefits literally within minutes of first dose, and so, reduced the initial to just two extra doses, and enjoyed good result on waking, day two. However, on Day two, I missed my third dose, and on waking day 3, it was clear I did not have the same level of urinary benefit on the first trip. to the bathroom, until taking the first glass for the day, regaining the full benefit within the hour. I was not aware of notable reduction of other benefits, but neither was there at that time much of a way to judge. Nonetheless, immediately taking a glass returned me to the best possible state regardless of metric in question; 6) Yes, I can sense even without opportunity for exercise, improved energy and a sense of strength, such as when first waking, when I normally feel weak as a kitten. I am breathing more easily and more deeply, which is muscular inspired, I presume. I am taking fewer and shorter naps, adding two-four hours of extra work time (as a writer - and for the record, most of my adult life, I only slept 4 hours a day, and only in recent years have I started to take naps. Now I am almost fully back to the 4 hour pattern!). ERGO: For me, I concluded three glasses a day up front will save some money and likely suffice. Even if one a day thereafter does not give me the same benefit, given the level of benefit and unexpected benefits, I would happily pay the cost difference of three doses daily, ongoing, and STILL SAVE MONEY, because I could stop using saw palmetto.

This review is for the blue raspberry flavor. My first impression is that the flavor is actually very pleasant BUT it is extremely sweet. I mixed one scoop with around 20-22 oz water and it's still overly sweet for my taste. I think I'll combine this container with the unflavored to tone down the sweetness. Otherwise I do like it and it mixes well into water, leaving now powdery texture.

In the world of fitness there are two certainties 1: Hard work and consistency get you as far as your attitude does. And 2: Creatine usually doesnt fully mix. BUT THIS ONE DOES FULLY MIX!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 Flavor is amazing (Blue Raspberry) It mixes all the way up, doesnt taste chalky. And it does what creatine is supposed to do. Your pump will be better, your muscles will thank you, and you can take this every single day as it compounds. It does not cost an arm and a leg, its affordable and do yourself a favor and subscribe to it because you will want more and subscribing saves money. It works amazing and doesnt have any side effects like bucked up or six star creatines. The texture is just like water when mixed, you cannot tell it was a powder. Use my link if you appreciate the honest and detailed feedback. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 https://amzn.to/4o1d5c1

Great powder, tastes good, and it works really well with helping me to bulk up. Ensure you drink lots of water tho cause it can leave you dehydrated.

Absolutely love this creatine and the blue raspberry flavor. Makes a world difference in my workouts. Wouldn’t use any other creatine.

I love that this creatine is not static like Orgain but the blue raspberry flavor is way too sweet.

Nice taste and Great pump

I wanted to try flavoured creatine and had heard good things about Nutricost, so I gave the Blue Raspberry flavour a go. It’s ok at best. Don’t get me wrong, the taste is tolerable, but it does have a fairly chemical aftertaste. It’s not something I look forward to drinking, but it is certainly drinkable. I’ve ended up mixing one scoop of this with my BCAAs, which taste much better, and that makes it easy enough to get my creatine in without any issues - one could ALSO use cordial. The cost per serving is really good compared to other flavoured creatives on the market, which is a big plus, but the flavour itself is pretty average. I also gave some to a mate to try and he thought the same, rating it about a 6.5 out of 10. We mixed it with 500ml /17oz water. Overall, decent value for money if you care more about price than taste.

Buen sabor. Todavía no puedo opinar sobre su eficacia porque llevo poco tiempo tomándola, pero le doy 4 estrellas porque no incluye cuchara medidora para la porción.
