Summary
This creatine supplement contains minimal ingredients, with gelatin and magnesium stearate being the only additives. The use of gelatin as a capsule material is standard, and magnesium stearate is a common, generally safe additive used to prevent clumping. The product's simplicity and lack of harmful additives contribute to its favorable rating, although it does not reach the purity of a single-ingredient creatine powder.
