Informed Sports Certified

Trusted, Tested, and Athlete-Safe.

When it comes to supplements, not all products are created equal. For athletes, coaches, and anyone serious about performance, quality and safety are non-negotiable.

That’s why Informed Sport Certified products exist, every batch is tested for banned substances, so you can fuel your training with complete confidence.

What Does “Informed Sport Certified” Mean?

Informed Sport is a globally recognised certification program designed to protect athletes and active individuals from contaminated supplements.

• Every batch tested before market release for more than 285 banned substances.

• ISO/IEC 17025 accredited laboratory testing by LGC, a world-leading sports anti-doping lab.

• Ongoing blind testing where products are purchased from retail and re-tested to ensure compliance.

• Manufacturing facility audits to confirm strict quality control and reduce contamination risk.

When you see the Informed Sport logo, it’s a guarantee that the product has passed the highest level of testing in the supplement industry.

Why Choose Informed Sport Certified Supplements?

For athletes and fitness professionals, the risks are real.

Studies show up to 1 in 10 supplements may be contaminated with banned substances. Choosing certified products provides peace of mind and ensures compliance with sporting regulations.

Key benefits include:

• Athlete Confidence – Protect your career and reputation by avoiding accidental doping.

• Quality Assurance – Independent, third-party testing of every batch.

• Global Recognition – Trusted by elite teams, military organisations, and governing bodies worldwide.

• Consumer Trust – Transparency in ingredient sourcing, testing, and manufacturing.

How the Certification Process Works

The Informed Sport certification isn’t a one-time stamp of approval, it’s an ongoing process designed to guarantee safety.

1. Pre-Certification Testing – Multiple product samples are screened for banned substances.

2. Facility Audits – Manufacturing sites are inspected to verify quality systems and prevent cross-contamination.

3. Batch Testing – Every single batch is tested before release to the market.

4. Blind Retail Testing – Random off-the-shelf products are re-tested for extra assurance.

This multi-layered process ensures consistency, safety, and compliance year-round.

Informed Sport vs. Informed Choice

While both programs provide assurance, the key difference lies in testing frequency:

• Informed Sport – Every batch tested before it reaches the consumer.

• Informed Choice – Monthly retail testing, but not every batch.

For elite athletes and those under strict anti-doping rules, Informed Sport certification is the gold standard.

NOTE: Nutrition Capital explicitly disclaims any liability for the misuse, intentional or unintentional, of our supplements in contravention of applicable laws.

No product testing can ever guarantee that a batch is completely free from contamination, as prohibited substances can be present at very low levels, and not distributed evenly through a batch, however, purchasing a Informed Sports certified product significantly reduces the risk.
