This new white-label and private-label supplement format makes it easier for consumers to receive the numerous benefits of creatine while sipping through a straw, while incorporating technology that tackles concerns related to heat, moisture and conditions that can contribute to the degradation of creatine into creatinine—an undesired by-product. “Creatine is one of the best-known supplement ingredients, but the user experience has not improved much in years,” said Thomas Shea, President of [Lelantos Fibre, Inc.](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nutritional-supplement-delivery) “We built this platform to solve a real usability problem while also giving brand partners a new format they can bring to market quickly."
