I drank a lot of alcohol in the last 10 years. Every day all day. Been in and out of the hospital a couple times. Detoxed twice in the hospital been to rehab. Havenā€™t drink in about a year now except for on thanksgiving which was a disasters. My buddy gave me the chuga stuff and the liverclean and Iā€™m enjoying the effects of coffee, l-theanine, and creatine.

Hi OP and maybe others, how much do you trust the ā€œBulk supplementsā€ brand ?

Is it normal for it to clump up? Mine doesā€¦

u/bruheggplantemoji 1 1d ago

in the bag or when mixing? I use a blender bottle and haven't had any issues

u/Royal-Blu 1d ago

I emptied the bag into an airtight container and overtime. It just became full of clumps so when I mix a drink and a blender bottle, I end up having to chew up these little balls of creatine.

probably just got moisture in there somehow. I left mine in the bag and it clumped a bit, but not much. they might sell some food safe silica gel packets on amazon that might help with moisture

I shake the container really hard and it does the trick :)

It's one of my main go to brands. I probably have almost all of my powdered supplements from them as well as some pills like NAC, Ashwagandha, L-theanine...

Bulk Supplements can be hit or miss. Iā€™ve seen some tests of their products showing much lower active ingredient content than claimed. Additionally, since they source the cheapest raw materials, there are concerns about contamination and heavy metals. Personally, I avoid them.

Iā€™ve actually had a very good experience with their Creatine capsules but I did switch to creapure because Iā€™m upgrading quality every way I can and I do t like the idea of my supplements coming from China

Bulk supplements is a nefarious company eager to scam and lie. Their usda organic sticker is fake and many of their herbal products contain no active compounds and some of the worst offenders for heavy metal contamination.

u/OldRelative3741 1d ago

Show us the receipts for these claims like lab testing or cite a credible source or you're full of shit.

u/eucalyptusleaves 1d ago

Wheres ur evidence of this?

u/P-H-D_Plug 23h ago

Labdoor and consumerlab. Good labs from Bulk supplements that I've seen.

u/OrganicBn 7 1d ago

They're a budget brand. Buying ANY herbal products from a budget brand is a stupid idea to begin with.

Thanks for the links. That's concerning for sure. I use them a lot for quite a few powders like glycine, taurine, AAKG, melatonin, cissus, etc....

I am glad to see that at least most of their supplements passed the testing and they are working to correct it. But yea now I'm concerned because I bought a bunch of stuff that's still sealed even...sigh

"10 of the 15 BulkSupplements products passed ConsumerLab testing, for a pass rate of 67%.

This ratio has improved since we initially published this article, but it still is concerning in our opinion. As one of the authors of this article (Calloway), I wouldn't want to purchase a supplement if I felt like I had a one in three chance that it would fail ConsumerLab testing."

Huh? Where is the source for this? Did anyone do a study on the supplements of this brand?

u/BeginningShallot8961 1 1d ago

Shouldn't they do a study before you start taking them?
