1. What are Gaming Gummies Arctic Blue?
Sugar-free chewy gummies in blueberry flavour, composed with gamers in mind. Five gummies per day provide 5g creatine monohydrate, magnesium, vitamin B6 and B12, plus a stack of taurine, tyrosine, citicoline, L-theanine and 80mg caffeine. One jar of 150 gummies = 30 doses. 100% vegan via pectin, sweetened with xylitol and stevia.
This is the gamer version within the Bear family: where the regular creatine gummies are aimed purely at training, this one is composed for long sessions in front of a screen or controller. Vitamin B6 contributes to normal psychological function. Vitamin B12 contributes to normal psychological function. Vitamin B6 contributes to normal functioning of the nervous system. Vitamin B12 contributes to normal functioning of the nervous system. We explain the rest of the stack factually below.
2. What is in it — the full stack
Per daily dose (5 gummies = 15g):
- Creatine monohydrate 5000 mg — above the EFSA threshold of 3g
- Taurine 1000 mg — an amino acid naturally found in muscle and brain tissue
- L-Tyrosine 750 mg — an amino acid, a precursor of neurotransmitters
- N-Acetyl-L-Tyrosine (NALT) 250 mg — a more soluble form of tyrosine
- Citicoline (CDP-choline) 250 mg — a source of choline
- L-Theanine 200 mg — an amino acid naturally found in tea
- Caffeine 80 mg (natural source) — comparable to one cup of coffee
- Magnesium 100 mg (26% RI), vitamin B6 (143% RI), vitamin B12 (100% RI)
There are no approved EU health claims for taurine, tyrosine, NALT, citicoline, L-theanine and caffeine — we therefore mention them only factually and claim no effect. What we may substantiate, you can read in the EFSA question below.
3. What may the product officially claim?
Honest and precise: only the claims for creatine, magnesium, B6 and B12 are EU-approved. We mention the rest of the stack factually, without promising any effect.
- Vitamin B6 contributes to normal psychological function. Vitamin B12 contributes to normal psychological function
- Vitamin B6 contributes to normal functioning of the nervous system. Vitamin B12 contributes to normal functioning of the nervous system
- Vitamin B6 contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Vitamin B12 contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Magnesium contributes to a reduction of tiredness and fatigue
- Vitamin B6 contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism. Vitamin B12 contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism. Magnesium contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism
- Magnesium contributes to normal muscle function. Magnesium contributes to normal functioning of the nervous system
Important to know: there is no approved EU claim saying that caffeine or creatine improves your 'focus', 'concentration' or 'reaction time'. Anyone who promises that goes beyond the rules. We stick to the wording that has been assessed: 'normal psychological function' via B6 and B12.
4. How much caffeine does it contain and what should I watch out for?
80 mg caffeine per daily dose — about one cup of coffee. Enough to be noticeable, not extreme. But caffeine does call for a few rules:
- Keep your total caffeine from all sources below ~400 mg per day (EFSA guideline for healthy adults)
- Count coffee, tea, cola, energy drinks and pre-workout — that 80 mg comes on top of those
- Do not take late in the day or in the evening — caffeine can disturb your sleep, and sleep is exactly what keeps you sharp the next day
- Caffeine-sensitive, heart problems, high blood pressure, anxiety or sleep problems? Consult a doctor first
- No more than 5 gummies per day — more caffeine is not better
5. Is this sugar-free — and what does that mean?
Yes, 0g sugar. Sweetened with xylitol and stevia instead of sugar, no artificial sweeteners.
- No sugar means no sugar spike as with sugary energy drinks or sweets
- Xylitol has fewer calories than sugar; stevia is calorie-free
- Sugar-free is not the same as calorie-free — there is a small amount of energy in it
- Note: xylitol can have a mild laxative effect at high intake (the dose here is low)
- Important: xylitol is toxic to dogs — keep out of reach of pets
6. Who is this made for?
Composed with long gaming sessions in mind, but more broadly usable for anyone looking for a sugar-free caffeine source with B vitamins and magnesium:
- Gamers and esports players during longer sessions
- Students or knowledge workers who want a sugar-free alternative to energy drinks
- Anyone who would rather get their caffeine from a gummy than from a can of sugary drink
- Anyone who also trains: the creatine provides the official performance claim there
- Not for those who want to avoid caffeine — then choose the caffeine-free BearGymmies creatine gummies
An honest caveat: no supplement replaces enough sleep, breaks and hydration during long sessions. See this as a supplement, not as a way to keep going longer than is good for you.
7. How does this differ from the regular BearGymmies creatine gummies?
Different target group, different formula:
- BearGamies (this one): creatine + caffeine + taurine/tyrosine/citicoline/theanine + B6/B12 + magnesium, aimed at gaming sessions
- BearGymmies creatine gummies: pure creatine (+ vit C or electrolytes), aimed at training, no caffeine
- Want caffeine and the broader stack: BearGamies
- Want pure creatine without a stimulant: the regular BearGymmies
- Both: 5g creatine per day, vegan, lab-tested, gummy form
8. What does the creatine do in this?
The creatine is separate from the gamer stack.
- 5g per day is the dose used in most research (Kreider 2017, ISSN Position Stand)
- A loading phase is not needed: 5g per day
- The EFSA performance claim applies specifically to short, very intense exercise (training, sprinting)
- Note: there is no approved EU claim that creatine improves your mental performance or reaction time (that claim was rejected in Nov 2024)
9. How and when do you take them?
Five gummies per day. Because of the caffeine, timing does matter here:
- Chew 5 gummies — no water needed
- Preferably earlier in the day or before a session, not late in the evening (caffeine and sleep)
- Not within ~6 hours before going to sleep, certainly if you are caffeine-sensitive
- Count the 80mg towards your daily caffeine if you also have coffee or energy drinks
- Drink enough water throughout the day (creatine draws some fluid into the muscles)
- No more than 5 per day
10. Side effects?
Most points of attention come from the caffeine and xylitol:
- Caffeine can cause palpitations, restlessness or insomnia in sensitive people
- Xylitol can have a mild laxative effect at high intake — the dose here is low
- Creatine: slight weight gain in the first weeks (water in muscles), normal
- With an existing kidney condition: consult a doctor first
- Drink enough water throughout the day
11. Who had better skip this or consult first?
- Children and young people under 18 — not recommended (caffeine)
- Pregnancy and breastfeeding — not recommended (EFSA advises under 200mg caffeine/day in pregnancy, plus the stack has not been studied in these groups)
- Caffeine-sensitive people — choose the caffeine-free creatine gummies
- Heart or blood pressure problems, anxiety disorder or sleep problems — consult a doctor first
- Existing kidney condition — consult a doctor
- Anyone who trains or games in the evening and wants to sleep well — watch the caffeine timing
- Note: choking hazard for young children, and xylitol is toxic to dogs
12. Important note about creatine and blood tests
Good to know if you are about to have blood drawn: creatine slightly raises your serum creatinine value without indicating kidney damage.
Creatine is the substance from which creatinine is formed — a natural breakdown route. Tell your doctor that you use creatine before a blood test, so the value is not misinterpreted.
13. Does it go well with other supplements?
Pay particular attention to the caffeine and magnesium overlap:
- Do not combine with caffeinated pre-workouts, coffee or energy drinks without counting your total caffeine — there is already 80mg in here
- Do not stack with a separate creatine source above ~5g/day — no extra effect
- With a separate magnesium supplement: count the 100mg too (and watch for a laxative effect with the xylitol)
- With whey or plant protein, vitamin D3, omega-3: fine together
14. Allergens and storage?
100% vegan (pectin, no gelatine). Contains 80mg caffeine per daily dose. Produced in a factory that processes various allergens — request the CoA if in doubt.
Storage: at 15-25°C, dry and out of direct sunlight. Above 25°C the gummies may become slightly sticky — close the packaging properly. Keep out of reach of young children (choking hazard) and pets (xylitol is toxic to dogs). Best before the Best Before Date on the packaging.
15. Independently tested and produced?
BearGamies (Zooo Nutrition) produces in the Netherlands. The creatine content per gummy is independently tested by two laboratories — stricter than the usual single-source test in this category.
- Creatine content per gummy verified (1g per gummy)
- Heavy metal tests (EU 1881/2006)
- Microbiological purity
- Produced in the EU (Netherlands) — short supply chain
