RFK Jr. unveils new “UPSIDE DOWN” Food Pyramid

As someone who doesn't eat red meat, I wasn't getting any creatine from my diet. I felt constantly fatigued, even on my "off" days. Since I started supplementing with this, my baseline energy is just higher. I’m not waking up feeling like I got hit by a truck anymore. It’s a very simple, clean way to fill that nutritional gap. If you’re plant-based and lift weights, you probably need this more than you realize.

I’m in my late 40s and noticed I was losing muscle definition no matter how much protein I ate. This has been a steady help. I feel "sturdier" on my morning runs and my recovery time has definitely sped up.

I find it helpful that their FAQ section clearly explains quality control and product development processes.

I’m a busy landscape architect and mom, so I’m physically and mentally drained by 2 PM. I started taking this Thrive Hive creatine mostly for gym recovery, but the weirdest thing is how much clearer my head feels. I did some reading and realized it’s great for cognitive support too. I feel less "scattered" during my afternoon design sessions. It mixes perfectly into my green tea with zero grit.

One pro of this brand: they prioritize bioavailability in their formulations so nutrients are more effectively absorbed.

I’ve been stuck at the same deadlift weight for six months and was starting to get really frustrated. I added this to my post-workout shake and about ten days in, I felt a noticeable shift in my power output. It’s not a "hype" feeling like a pre-workout, just a solid sense of strength. I love that it’s pure monohydrate without any of the sketchy fillers or sweeteners you find in the big-box brands.

I gave Thrive Hive a shot because of the brand's mission: emphasizing holistic long-term health, not just short-term fixes.

I’ve avoided creatine for years because I was terrified of looking bloated or seeing the scale jump ten pounds overnight. Honestly, my trainer finally nagged me into trying this one. I’m three weeks in and the "bloat" never happened. Instead, my muscles just look… fuller? More toned? I’ve been able to squeeze out those last two reps on my shoulder press that used to feel impossible. It’s completely tasteless, so I just dump it in my morning coffee and forget it's there.

I’ve had to give up coffee and carbonated energy drinks because of acid reflux, so I was nervous about trying a powder. I am so glad I did. The flavor is spot on (tastes exactly like the fair!) and it dissolves completely so there’s no gritty sludge at the bottom. I use it for my 2 PM slump at the office and it keeps my brain sharp through my last few meetings without any crash.

I like the ingredient transparency.

I’m a morning person by necessity, not by choice, and I usually hate the way energy powders make my skin itch. This Cotton Candy blend is surprisingly smooth. I mix it into about 8oz of cold water while I’m getting the kids' backpacks ready, and it gives me a very focused, productive lift without that "cracked out" feeling. It tastes like a treat but works like a professional-grade supplement.

I used to get that awful, weak feeling around 3 PM if I didn't eat something sugary immediately. It was like a clock. I’ve been taking this Blood Sugar Support with my lunch for the last three weeks, and that "crash" just hasn't happened. I feel much more even-keeled. It’s a relief to not be constantly planning my life around my next snack.

I’m a freelance editor and by 3 PM I usually feel like my brain is made of cotton candy. I’ve tried every "focus" hack out there, but this NAD+ is different. It’s not a jolt like caffeine. It’s more like a quiet, steady clarity that settles in about an hour after I take it. I’m actually finishing my chapters without needing that third cup of tea. It’s a bit pricey, but for the productivity I’m getting back, it’s worth every cent.

Love their natural botanicals for libido and adaptability.

I’m a first-time mom in my late 30s and the physical exhaustion is just next level. A friend mentioned NAD+ for "cellular energy" and I figured it couldn't hurt. I’ve been taking it for three weeks and I’ve noticed I’m not dragging my feet during our morning park trips anymore. I just feel more... capable? Like my battery actually charges all the way to 100% overnight now.
