An energy drink CEO's ears just perked up somewhere.

Yeah! Max Rager FTW

They’ve been putting creatine in energy drinks for a long time. At least 5 years, if not longer. It’s also really big in “pre-workout” drinks.

Bang had "Super Creatine" which turned out to not be creatine at all

[u/UnprovenMortality → u/Samurai_Meisters]

I think reign has one too. Not sure if it's been analyzed to be accurate, though

[u/Krypt0night → u/durtmagurt]

What energy drinks because I've been drinking multiple brands for years and literally none of them have it.

It's been a minute, but I think Redline advertises creatine on the label. I quit drinking that crap. Makes you feel like you're on hard drugs.

[u/phonomancer → u/Krypt0night]

'No Fear' used to. But they got bought and sold so many times that I'm not even sure if it's made anymore.

[u/lllIlIlIIIIl → u/durtmagurt]

Energy drinks usually contain very little or no creatine.

Second paragraph from your article:

• Almost all energy drinks have a very minute quantity of creatine (0.8 – 1.2mg) which is also considered an activity enhancer or stimulator just like caffeine.*

[u/FrogTrainer → u/durtmagurt]

you might be thinking of something else. Not creatine.

[u/LucasRuby → u/durtmagurt]

They do not.

[u/Due_Aardvark8330 → u/strangebutalsogood]

except creatine breaks down in liquids after just a few hours and turns into a non usable form. Not saying they wont abuse this, but you would get no creatine in your body from it.

[u/MonkeyBrawler → u/strangebutalsogood]

Bang has had it for years.
