Start with the current flavor and formula

The inspected Strawberry Lemonade image lists approximately one 12g scoop and about 30 servings. It declares 5g micronized creatine monohydrate, 2.5g myHMB calcium HMB monohydrate, and 500mg VitaCherry Sport tart cherry powder. The panel also lists 360mg calcium, 15 calories, and 2g total carbohydrate per serving.

The 12g total scoop is not 12g of creatine. Likewise, the named calcium HMB ingredient should not be silently relabeled as an equal amount of free HMB. A comparison should preserve the actual form written on the panel instead of simplifying every number into the ingredient name used in an advertisement.

There is also a version problem worth knowing about. A separate official Legion page for micronized creatine still describes Recharge as containing L-carnitine L-tartrate and corosolic acid. That description differs from the current inspected Recharge panel. We follow the selected Strawberry Lemonade panel here, without claiming that every retailer or warehouse has changed formulas simultaneously.

The other-ingredients line adds useful detail

The panel names natural flavors, steviol glycosides, sodium gluconate, silicon dioxide, calcium silicate, and vegetable juice for color. General site copy mentions several possible natural sweeteners across products; that does not establish that all of them are in this flavor. The flavor-specific panel is the better starting point for an ingredient question.

The image also says the facility may process ingredients containing milk, soy, wheat, egg, peanuts, tree nuts, sesame, fish, and crustacean shellfish. This statement is not proof that those allergens are ingredients in this powder, and it is not an independently verified absence guarantee. Anyone with an allergy needs information relevant to the current package and their own clinical advice.

Our label-reading note explains why ingredient identity, serving weight, and other ingredients deserve separate lines. A natural-flavor description or a short marketing checklist cannot answer every dietary restriction question.

Three ingredients do not equal three proven benefits for this tub

Legion links ingredient studies and uses language about clinically effective ingredients and doses. That is the manufacturer's explanation of its formulation. It should not be mistaken for a randomized trial establishing the outcomes of this exact flavored finished product against competing retail powders.

NIH ODS reviews creatine, HMB, and other exercise-supplement evidence in specific populations and settings. The studies do not all ask the same question or produce interchangeable results. Adding an ingredient associated with recovery research does not establish that the blend prevents injury, heals damaged tissue, or benefits every reader more than plain monohydrate.

The injury and immobilization guide shows why recovery language needs context. A post-workout product name is not a rehabilitation plan. Likewise, our creatine and protein note explains why a recovery supplement should not be treated as a meal or complete protein source.

Match the independent test to the product it actually names

The current product page displays Labdoor testing claims. We found an independent Labdoor entry for Recharge Unflavored, showing lot 2412676 and a March 22, 2026 test date. Its public certification page also cautions that products bought through seller links may not match the tested lots.

That is a real, more specific record than an unattributed quality badge. However, it names Unflavored, while this purchase and panel review concerns Strawberry Lemonade. We did not establish that the entry tests the selected flavor, its current formula, or a container that would be delivered to a reader.

The distinction remains important even when a test score looks impressive. A compositional or contaminant assessment does not measure strength gains, muscle soreness, or suitability with medicines. We have not converted a seller's reference to FDA safety guidelines into a claim that FDA approved Recharge for safety or effectiveness.

Separate the first subscription from later deliveries

The rendered page selected Strawberry Lemonade with 30 servings. It showed $44.99 one-time, or $31.49 for an introductory subscription advertised as 30% off. The recurring offer then stated 15% off future orders, with an initial delivery interval of every 30 days.

Using the approximately 30 labeled servings, the displayed one-time figure is about $1.50 per serving and the introductory figure about $1.05. Neither is a delivered quote. The first discount should not be described as a permanent renewal price, and this review does not calculate an assured future charge from a discount percentage alone.

The page advertised changes and cancellation without penalties, along with a money-back guarantee. We did not create a subscription, test cancellation, request a refund, or complete a shipping and tax calculation. Read the actual order summary and applicable policy before paying; storefront assurances do not establish how an individual request will be handled.

Decide whether the blend answers your question

For someone comparing only creatine, the added ingredients make price arithmetic less direct. The whole serving price buys the entire blend; it cannot reveal how much of that price belongs to creatine or whether the extras are useful to that buyer. Our six plain-powder comparison keeps those simpler records together and explains the commercial order.

For someone interested in the blend, ask whether the studies match the intended goal, whether the calcium and other ingredients fit their existing routine, and which testing document matches the exact flavor. Do not use a research protocol from another product to multiply servings of this multi-ingredient formula.

A targeted FDA search did not identify a matching Recharge recall, but that limited search is not safety clearance. Compare the record with CoreAge Rx Strong Suit or Momentous while keeping the formula differences visible. Recharge's current label provides useful detail; the unresolved flavor and lot match, version wording, and renewal terms remain part of the decision.
