Why Choose Certified Supplements?

NSF Certified for Sport NSF International’s Certified for Sport? helps athletes make safer decisions when choosing sports supplements. MLB, NHL and CFL clubs are permitted to provide and recommend only products that are Certified for Sport?. Certified for Sport? is also recommended by the NFL, PGA, LPGA, CCES, CPSDA, Taylor Hooton Foundation and many other sports organizations.

About Certified for Sport?

To meet the growing demands of athletes, coaches and all those concerned about banned substances in sports supplements, NSF International created the Certified for Sport? program. The program certifies that what is on the label is in the bottle and that the product does not contain unsafe levels of contaminants, prohibited substances or masking agents.

Certification also means that supplement manufacturers and their suppliers meet stringent certification guidelines developed through a consensus process involving regulatory, sports industry and consumer groups.
