We Put the Dose on the Label Because Most Gummy Brands Won't

The Number Is the Point

Three pieces of Tortis deliver 525mg of creatine monohydrate daily. That figure clears the newly published maintenance recommendation from Ostojić's 2026 paper in Nutrition Reviews — not by accident, but by design. We chose the dose first, then built the format around it. The number isn't tucked into fine print; it's the anchor of the product. If a gummy brand won't tell you the dose up front, that's usually because the dose doesn't hold up to scrutiny.

The recommendation emerging from the literature is roughly 400–500mg per day to maintain adequate tissue saturation in adults — a baseline that keeps your endogenous stores from drifting below optimal over time. That's not a transformation threshold. It's a maintenance lane. Three Tortis per day land you at 525mg, giving a small margin above the lower bound without overshooting into performance-supplement territory. We're calibrating for daily adequacy, not training adaptation.

This is different from clinical or performance protocols, which typically start around 3–5 grams per day. Those are valid interventions for specific goals, but they require different formats, different adherence models, and different outcome expectations. Tortis exists in the adequacy zone: meeting a baseline you didn't know you were slipping below, quietly and consistently, without requiring you to rethink your entire supplement stack or adopt a loading phase. The dose is published, referenced, and designed to be trusted — because the entire premise collapses if you can't verify the math yourself.

First Orders, First Reality Check

We opened founding member sales this week. The site is live, payment rails work, and we're shipping to all U.S. customers. After months of R&D and scrambling to solve problems we didn't see coming, it feels strange to finally be here.

Are things perfect? No. But we had to draw a line—launch now, learn fast, adjust in real time. Waiting for perfect would've meant never starting. Miles just drove to Michigan to pick up new gum samples, and we're using early customer feedback to sharpen our understanding of who this is really for. The work doesn't stop at launch. It starts there.
