What to check on the label

  • Whether every ingredient has its own milligram line, or several are grouped in a 'blend' with one total.
  • How many capsules or scoops make a serving, and how many servings the container holds.
  • Whether the ingredients you care about appear at amounts you would accept on their own. The list below shows each figure.

Amounts are per label serving as recorded in the catalog and are not a recommendation. Testing status reflects what the brand lists. Nothing here is medical advice.

How we scored this product Show the full breakdown
Dose vs. studies (50%) Why 7.7 of 10. Primary ingredient is Creatine (evidence grade A). It delivers 5000 mg, inside the studied range of 3000–10000 mg. Read the rule → 7.7
Transparency (20%) Why 8.0 of 10. Earned points for independent third-party testing and all doses disclosed. Lost points for no public certificate of analysis. Read the rule → 8.0
Value (10%) Why 5.4 of 10. One day at the trial dose costs about $3.30. That is one of the pricier options in the catalog (243 of 313 by cost per effective day). Read the rule → 5.4
Formulation (10%) Why 5.0 of 10. No published absorption advantage or disadvantage on file. The default of 5 is not a criticism. Read the rule → 5.0 Default. No absorption data on file.
Safety (5%) Why 7.0 of 10. Baseline 5.0. Third-party testing adds 2.0. Public lab certificate adds 1.5. NSF, USP or Informed Choice certification adds 1.5. Active safety signal subtracts 3.0. Read the rule → 7.0
Community sentiment (5%) Why 8.2 of 10. Sentiment across 2 external review source(s) is mostly positive. Community is a signal about daily use, not proof of effect. Read the rule → 8.2
Composite How this 7.3 is built. 0.50 × 7.7 + 0.20 × 8.0 + 0.10 × 5.4 + 0.10 × 5.0 + 0.05 × 7.0 + 0.05 × 8.2 = 7.3 out of 10. Safety caps applied after. 7.3

Value10%5.4
Formulation10%5.0
Safety5%7.0
Community5%8.2

Evidence gates dose: the evidence grade sets the ceiling, and the dose decides how much of that ceiling the product reaches. Value = inverse of price-per-trial-dose-day. Community = mean sentiment of external reviews. Safety caps applied after weighting.

This score is our editorial judgment, not a scientific standard. We combine published evidence, dose, price, transparency, and consumer signals into one composite: this is our method, not a peer-reviewed clinical rating. A higher score means a product does better on the factors we weight, not that it is medically proven to work.

Layer 2 · Context
In plain language

Why this scored this way

This AG1 (Athletic Greens) AG1 Pro scores 7.3, making it a mid-tier product with both strengths and weaknesses. It delivers 75mg of Zinc, above the studied range of 10–30mg with grade A evidence (strong human trial data). At $3.30/day it's among the more expensive options in Multi/greens.

What drives the score up

  • Dose-evidence score of 7.7 shows decent alignment with trial doses.
  • Tested by independent lab (transparency 8.0).
  • Community score of 8.2 with positive consumer feedback.
  • Zinc is dosed at the full research level with grade A evidence (strong human trial data).
  • Creatine is dosed at the full research level with grade A evidence (strong human trial data).

What drags it down

  • Zinc (75.0mg is 500% of the 15mg trial dose) is well above the trial dose. More is not always better.
  • No public lab certificate available for independent verification.
  • At $3.30/day it's on the expensive side.

Why you'd choose it

  • You want Zinc from a AG1 (Athletic Greens) product.
  • You want a tested by independent lab product.
  • You want doses that align with published research.

Why you might skip it

  • You want a product with a publicly available CoA.
  • You want a standard dose of zinc (this product is well above it).
  • You want a cheaper option (this is $3.30/day).
Question 1

Does the molecule work?

The science behind each active ingredient, independent of which brand sells it.

Creatine

The most-studied supplement in existence; muscle, brain, and mood benefits.

10 landmark RCTs · US: Dietary supplement · EU: Food supplement, health claim authorised (3 g/day)
HMB

Leucine metabolite; muscle preservation in older adults.

No landmark RCTs listed · US: Dietary supplement · EU: Food supplement
Zinc

Essential mineral for immunity and skin; watch out for copper depletion.

3 landmark RCTs · US: Dietary supplement · EU: Food supplement

Full ingredient breakdown

Every active in this formula, its declared dose per serving, the dose used in the primary human trial, how much of that trial dose this product delivers, and the evidence grade for the ingredient itself.

IngredientDose / servingResearch dose% of researchEvidence grade
Creatine5000 mg5000 mg100%A
HMB1500 mg3000 mg50%B
Zinc75 mg15 mg500%A

Percentages are dose per serving ÷ primary trial dose. Below 50% means the formula is unlikely to reproduce the trial outcome for that active. Grade A = multiple large human RCTs. Grade F = no human evidence. How grades work. Full glossary →

Important to know
CreatineDon't pay extra for 'HCl', 'buffered', or 'Kre-Alkalyn', monohydrate is chemically identical after absorption. Look for Creapure® certification.
HMBFree acid form absorbs faster but costs more.
ZincChronic >50 mg/day causes copper deficiency.

Editorial notes

A creatine + HMB + zinc-carnosine upgrade bolted onto the AG1 Next Gen base formula, explicitly marketed at muscle-preservation for GLP-1 users and 'healthy aging', the 5g creatine dose is a legitimate research-aligned amount, but buyers are paying a $20/month premium over AG1 Next Gen for ingredients most could get far more cheaply as standalone creatine monohydrate.
