Can kids or teens take creatine?Updated 2 hours ago

Creatine occurs naturally in the body and in foods such as meat and fish. However, research into creatine supplementation in children and adolescents is more limited than in adults.

As a formulated supplementary sports food, our packaging carries a mandatory warning that the product is not suitable for children under 15 and should only be used under medical or dietetic supervision.

For teenagers aged 15–17, we recommend consulting a healthcare professional or accredited sports dietitian before use.
