Thorne's creatine is a plain, carefully documented product. Each scoop holds 5g of creatine monohydrate, and the 90-serving container costs $44, with a 180-serving size on the same page. It carries NSF Certified for Sport, which Thorne explains means testing for label claims and for nearly 300 substances banned by major athletic organizations, and Thorne says it tests each ingredient for identity, purity and potency, including heavy metals, pesticides and microbes. The FAQ is unusually direct: it says 5g a day works for most people, that loading is optional, and that some users notice mild water retention at the start. The product is gluten free, dairy free and soy free, and Thorne accepts FSA and HSA funds through Truemed. It ranks just behind Momentous because it costs slightly more per serving and the page lists no flavors. For athletes already buying Thorne vitamins, it is a simple add to the same order.
