We test trendy creatine supplements on the market to boost energy from gummies to powder
A NEW report shows one in ten people aged 18 to 24 prefer health-related first dates to going to the pub. This could be one reason creatine is the supplement of the moment. The compound, found naturally in muscles, helps produce energy for high intensity exercise. 4 But there are reports some supplements contain ZERO creatine. I put credible ones to the test. STRAWBERRY GUMMIES In each serving of Novomins Creatine Monohydrate Gummies there are 5 grams of pure creatine monohydrate. These have been independently lab-verified to ensure quality. Studies show 3 to 5 grams per day are recommended if you are supplementing. Higher doses offer no advantage. You'd need to eat 850g of red meat to get 5g of creatine needed for improved performance. These gummies taste great and the main ingredient is creatine. From £18.66 for a month's supply – 90 gummies, POWDER MIX THERE is a reason that Ancient + Brave is becoming a very popular brand and that's because it makes some great products. Its True Creatine+ is no different. This is a powder that just mixes creatine with taurine – a naturally occurring amino acid used for energy – magnesium and vitamin D. There is 4.5g of creatine monohydrate per 6g serving. This combination can support energy and strength plus focus and recovery. I love magnesium for its stress relieving properties and we should all be taking vitamin D. To supplement or not- The top 10 vitamins and minerals that are vital for health - and the best sources for each one Powder may seem fiddly but it is tasteless and you just add it to water. This comes in a jar or portable sachets. From £22.40 for 30 servings, see NO-FUSS CAPSULES NEW Leaf Products is a no fuss supplement company that doesn't do as much fancy marketing as some others but has a great range of products. Their Creatine Monohydrate Capsules is pure creatine apart from the synthetic outer shell and magnesium stearate which is added as an anti-caking agent. A convenient supplement that is easy to add to your daily routine. And creatine is not just for Gen Z, it is great if you are getting older as it can help stop the loss of muscle mass that naturally occurs. It can make you gain weight because it can cause temporary water retention by drawing water into muscle cells but this is very different to weight gain from fat.

Three ways to improve your health by boosting your daily dose of fibre
HAVING fibre in your diet can help digestion, blood sugar control and managing weight by making you feel full. It can also cut the risk of heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes and bowel cancer. Yet fewer than one in ten people get the recommended 30g a day. The best way to up your fibre is with your diet. But today, I look at ways you can boost your daily dose. GUMMIES 3 Novomins fibre gummies provide 4g of fibre THIS one is a clever idea – Novomins fibre gummies provide 4g of fibre through inulin, which comes from the chicory plant. READ MORE ON FIBRE Inulin is found in prebiotic foods like garlic, onion and bananas. As a supplement, you can get inulin powder. But for convenience these gummies are great. They also contain calcium, vitamin D, B12 and chromium, have a lovely orange flavour and contain no sugar. Very chewy, they last for ages. A bit of a sweet treat to keep your bowels healthy.

But this new one, from the Fast 800, isn't. The powders are a blend of inulin, acacia fibre and green banana resistant starch, which mixes to a smooth drink. The Sleep Blend also contains minerals, amino acids and other natural sleep support ingredients such as magnesium, chamomile, lemon balm extract and passionflower. There is 5.6g of fibre per serving and just 18 calories. You take 10g of the powder and mix with water, warm or cold, up to three hours before bed. It does have a mild lemon flavour, which I didn't love, but it wasn't unpleasant. £22.99 for 30 servings, FOOD 3 Jnck Bakery's new cookies are formulated to have five times more fibre than standard ones A SUGARY biscuit that is good for your gut health sounds bonkers, but JNCK Bakery's new cookies are formulated to have five times more fibre than standard ones. They also include other health-focused improvements, such as 90 per cent less sugar and 50 cent less saturated fat. This has been achieved by incorporating pea protein, prebiotic fibre and a low-sugar, protein-rich chocolate. They come in three flavours – Milky Chocolate, Trippple Chocolate and White Gold Chocolate, and each cookie has around 9g of fibre, 185 calories and 1.5g of sugar. They are rich and chocolatey and taste amazing. My six-year-old loves them and I would buy them knowing that they are slightly healthier than your average cookie. From £1.08 each at Tesco.
