We could only find two greens powders sold in the UK with creatine in them. Ours is one. The other is Myprotein's, and it is cheaper than ours.
That is a short shelf, so this is a short guide. We priced thirteen greens powders across Holland & Barrett, Boots and Ocado in August 2026 and read every ingredients list. Not one of them contained creatine, including the sports brands.
So if you want your greens and your creatine in the same drink, you have two choices.
| Collagen Greens | Myprotein THE Performance Superfoods | |
|---|---|---|
| Creatine per serving | 4g monohydrate | 3.4g Creapure® |
| Collagen per serving | 4g bovine, Type I & III | None |
| Digestive enzymes | DigeZyme® plus bromelain | None listed |
| Serving size | 12.6g | 17.7g |
| Cost per day | £1.33 on subscription | About £1.15 |
| Added synthetic vitamins | None | Check the current label |
Myprotein figures verified against their UK product page in August 2026. Both brands reformulate, so check the label before you buy.
Two honest points before we go further.
Myprotein is cheaper. About 18p a day cheaper. Over a year that is roughly £65. We are not going to talk you out of noticing that.
Myprotein uses Creapure. That is a branded German creatine monohydrate with a good reputation for purity. Ours is standard creatine monohydrate. Creapure is a genuine mark in their favour, and if it matters to you, it should count.
THE SHORT VERSION
Both put creatine in your greens. Only one also puts 4g of bovine collagen peptides and a digestive enzyme complex in the same scoop. If you are taking collagen anyway, that is one tub instead of two.

Honestly, not much.
Most creatine research uses 3g to 5g a day for maintenance. Both products sit inside that range. The 0.6g between them is not the reason to pick one.
What does matter is taking it every day. Creatine works by building up in your muscles over about two to four weeks. A dose you actually take beats a bigger dose you forget.
That is really the argument for putting it in your greens at all. If the greens are already a habit, the creatine comes along with it.
We go into the daily dose in more detail in our guide to creatine for women over 40.
It is a fair question. Creatine is cheap, well studied and popular. Why is it in almost no greens powders?
Two reasons, as far as we can tell.
Space. A useful creatine dose is 3g to 5g. A typical greens scoop is 5g to 10g in total. Putting creatine in means most of the scoop is now creatine, and the greens have to shrink. Most brands would rather keep the long ingredient list.
Positioning. Greens powders are usually sold as a wellness product and creatine is usually sold as a sports one. Brands are wary of mixing the two aisles.
Our scoop is 12.6g, which is larger than most. That is the trade we made. 4g of creatine and 4g of collagen are 63% of it by weight, and the greens are the matrix around them rather than the headline.
While you are reading labels, look at where the vitamins come from.
Of the thirteen greens powders we priced across the three shops, seven add synthetic vitamins or minerals. Added zinc citrate, added B12, added ascorbic acid, added iron. It is normal and it is cheap, and it lets a label print a percentage that came from a factory rather than a plant.
We leave them out. Every green in our bag is a dehydrated plant. That is a purity choice rather than a claim to be stronger, and several good brands do the same. Aduna, Rheal, Naturya, Huel and Free Soul all leave the synthetics out.
You want greens and creatine, as cheaply as possible. Myprotein. It is about 18p a day less and it uses Creapure.
You also take collagen. Ours. It is the only one of the two with both, so it is one tub instead of two.
You want the smallest scoop. Ours, at 12.6g against 17.7g.
You want a flavoured drink. Not ours. It is unflavoured and it tastes earthy.
You are vegan. Not ours, because our collagen comes from cattle.
Want the wider picture? We keep priced tables of the full shelves at Holland & Barrett and Boots. There is also a comparison of every UK greens powder with collagen.
READY TO CHOOSE
4g of creatine monohydrate, 4g of hydrolysed bovine collagen peptides, and a full digestive enzyme complex. 33 servings a bag, made in the UK, no synthetic vitamins added.

We found two: Collagen Greens with 4g of creatine monohydrate, and Myprotein THE Performance Superfoods with 3.4g of Creapure. None of the thirteen greens powders we priced at Holland & Barrett, Boots and Ocado in August 2026 contained any.
Yes, and plenty of people do. A tub of plain creatine monohydrate costs about £10 for 200g, which is roughly 24p a day. It works perfectly well. It is two tubs and two scoops rather than one.
Most research uses 3g to 5g a day. Both products here sit inside that. Taking it every day matters far more than the exact figure, because creatine builds up over two to four weeks.
Yes. Creatine monohydrate is not damaged by being mixed with greens, and it does not need to be taken with anything in particular. Mix it in cold water and drink it.

Nine greens powders on UK shelves have a published UK country of origin. Four do not, including one British brand. Here is where each is made, and how to check any of them yourself.

We read the ingredients list on sixteen greens powders sold in the UK. Only two had no flavouring, no sweetener and no fruit powder. Ours is not one of them, and here is why.

3g to 5g a day for most people, and no, you do not need to load. What the dosing evidence says, whether bodyweight changes it, and what UK products actually give you per serving.
