Dimethylphthalate31 ppbof 10 ppb

Over the limit — 3.1×DMP is not on the EU Union list of substances authorised in food-contact plastics (Reg. (EU) 10/2011 Annex I), so no migration is permitted. Set at 0.01 mg/kg, the detection limit 10/2011 uses for not-detectable (ND) restrictions.

Measured in: Active Creatine Monohydrate

Di(2-ethylhexyl) Phthalate (DEHP)14.4 ppbof 6 ppb

Over the limit — 2.4×US EPA drinking-water MCL, 40 CFR 141.61(c) — 0.006 mg/L. Applied to all foods as the TIGHTEST published DEHP number; the EU food-contact limit is looser (Reg. (EU) 10/2011 as amended by 2023/1442: SML 0.6 mg/kg, plus the 0.6 mg/kg DEHP-equivalent group limit with DBP/BBP/DIBP).

Diethylphthalate11.5 ppbof 10 ppb

Over the limit — 1.2×DEP is not on the EU Union list of substances authorised in food-contact plastics (Reg. (EU) 10/2011 Annex I), so no migration is permitted. Set at 0.01 mg/kg, the detection limit 10/2011 uses for not-detectable (ND) restrictions.

Measured in: Active Creatine Monohydrate

Dibutyl Phthalate36.4 ppbof 120 ppb

30% of the limitEU food-contact plastics, Reg. (EU) 10/2011 as amended by 2023/1442 — DBP SML 0.12 mg/kg (cut from 0.3). Also inside the 0.6 mg/kg DEHP-equivalent group limit (DBP x5).

Measured in: Active Creatine Monohydrate

Diisobutyl Phthalate9.2 ppbof 150 ppb

6% of the limitEU food-contact plastics, Reg. (EU) 2023/1442 group restriction — DBP x5 + DIBP x4 + BBP x0.1 + DEHP <= 0.6 mg/kg DEHP-equivalents, so DIBP alone may not exceed 0.15 mg/kg. DIBP is not itself an authorised substance.

Measured in: Active Creatine Monohydrate

Di (2-ethylhexyl) Terephthalate0.0234 ppmof 60 ppm

<1% of the limitEU food-contact plastics, Reg. (EU) 10/2011 — DEHT (FCM 798) SML 60 mg/kg, group restriction with DINCH. No tighter published limit exists (EFSA TDI 1 mg/kg bw/day).

Measured in: Active Creatine Monohydrate

Benzylbutyl PhthalateNDof 6 ppm

Not detectedEU food-contact plastics, Reg. (EU) 10/2011 as amended by 2023/1442 — BBP SML 6 mg/kg (cut from 30). Also inside the 0.6 mg/kg DEHP-equivalent group limit (BBP x0.1 = 6 mg/kg alone).

Measured in: Active Creatine Monohydrate

Bisphenol a (BPA)NDof 1 ppb

Not detectedEU Reg. (EU) 2024/3190 — BPA banned in food-contact materials from 20 Jan 2025 (old 0.05 mg/kg SML repealed); the residual exemptions require NO detectable migration at a 1 ug/kg detection limit. 1 ppb is therefore the tightest published number.

Measured in: Active Creatine Monohydrate

BpfNDof 10 ppb

Not detectedNot on the EU Union list of substances authorised in food-contact plastics (Reg. (EU) 10/2011 Annex I), and Reg. 2024/3190 restricts hazardous bisphenols; no migration is permitted. Set at 0.01 mg/kg, the detection limit 10/2011 uses for not-detectable (ND) restrictions.

Measured in: Active Creatine Monohydrate

BPS (Bisphenol s)NDof 50 ppb

Not detectedEU food-contact plastics, Reg. (EU) 10/2011 — BPS (4,4'-sulphonyldiphenol) SML 0.05 mg/kg; BfR applies the same 0.05 mg/kg.

Measured in: Active Creatine Monohydrate

Di-n-octyl PhthalateNDof 10 ppb

Not detectedDNOP is not on the EU Union list of substances authorised in food-contact plastics (Reg. (EU) 10/2011 Annex I), so no migration is permitted. Set at 0.01 mg/kg, the detection limit 10/2011 uses for not-detectable (ND) restrictions.

Measured in: Active Creatine Monohydrate

Dicyclohexyl PhthalateNDof 10 ppb

Not detectedDCHP is not on the EU Union list of substances authorised in food-contact plastics (Reg. (EU) 10/2011 Annex I), so no migration is permitted. Set at 0.01 mg/kg, the detection limit 10/2011 uses for not-detectable (ND) restrictions.

Measured in: Active Creatine Monohydrate

Diethylhexyl AdipateNDof 18 ppm

Measured in: Active Creatine Monohydrate

Dihexyl PhthalateNDof 10 ppb

Not detectedDNHP (di-n-hexyl phthalate, EU Repr. 1B) is not on the EU Union list of substances authorised in food-contact plastics (Reg. (EU) 10/2011 Annex I), so no migration is permitted. Set at 0.01 mg/kg, the detection limit 10/2011 uses for not-detectable (ND) restrictions.

Diisodecyl AdipateNDof 10 ppb

Not detectedDIDA (diisodecyl adipate) is not on the EU Union list of substances authorised in food-contact plastics (Reg. (EU) 10/2011 Annex I), so no migration is permitted. Set at 0.01 mg/kg, the detection limit 10/2011 uses for not-detectable (ND) restrictions.

Common questions

Is Sunwarrior Active Creatine Monohydrate healthy?

Sunwarrior Active Creatine Monohydrate scores 31/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in, plus lab results from its product family, Sunwarrior vegan creatine monohydrate. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

What is in Sunwarrior Active Creatine Monohydrate?

Sunwarrior Active Creatine Monohydrate lists 1 ingredient, starting with Creatine Monohydrate. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does Sunwarrior Active Creatine Monohydrate contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in Sunwarrior Active Creatine Monohydrate’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".

How processed is Sunwarrior Active Creatine Monohydrate?

Sunwarrior Active Creatine Monohydrate is NOVA group 1: unprocessed or minimally processed. NOVA runs 1 to 4, where 1 is whole food and 4 is ultra-processed.

How does Sunwarrior Active Creatine Monohydrate compare to other pre-workout & performance?

At 31/100 Sunwarrior Active Creatine Monohydrate scores worse than most pre-workout & performance we have scored. A higher-scoring option in pre-workout & performance is Orgain Creatine Monohydrate at 97/100.

Is Sunwarrior Active Creatine Monohydrate organic?

Sunwarrior Active Creatine Monohydrate is not certified organic in our data.

Has Sunwarrior Active Creatine Monohydrate been lab tested?

Not this product itself. It shares a base recipe (Vegan creatine monohydrate powder, unflavored or lightly flavored (elderberry/fruit flavor); no protein, cocoa, rice or nut) with the other products in its family, Sunwarrior vegan creatine monohydrate, and 1 product in its family has been lab tested. This product is scored with the worst result for each contaminant across those tests. Those results are in the family's Contaminants section above; its own results may differ.

Does Sunwarrior Active Creatine Monohydrate contain phthalates?

Sunwarrior Active Creatine Monohydrate itself has not been tested for phthalates, but other products in its family, which share its base recipe, have: a lab detected DEHP at 14.4 ppb against a 6 ppb limit in Active Creatine Monohydrate, dibutyl phthalate at 36.4 ppb against a 120 ppb limit in Active Creatine Monohydrate, diethylphthalate at 11.5 ppb against a 10 ppb limit in Active Creatine Monohydrate, diisobutyl phthalate at 9.2 ppb against a 150 ppb limit in Active Creatine Monohydrate and 1 other reading. This product is scored with the worst result for each contaminant across those tests. Its own results may differ.
