3rd Party Tested Grass-Fed Whey

Without a doubt, testing is costly, but what is the price tag on your health, and is a discounted untested product worth the risk?

The sad truth is that most of us are paying premiums for supplements anyway, with unverified "3rd party tested" claims written all over the marketing material. The world is, fortunately, catching on in this era of information access.

This fact paired with the best athletes (role models) on the planet, along with professional sports teams demanding safe, drug-free, fully accredited nutrition products, does help influence our communities of young athletes coming up.

• INFORMED-CHOICE & INFORMED-SPORT (Global Certification) is a testing and certification program designed to offer assurance for athletes that products carrying these identifications undergo regular tests as defined by the program. Responsible supplement companies have made INFORMED-CHOICE & INFORMED SPORT part of their existing quality assurance systems to ensure their products are safe for athletes to use.
• Some supplement products from less meticulous manufacturers have tested positive with low levels of steroid and stimulant contamination prohibited by WADA and other sporting bodies. The INFORMED-CHOICE & INFORMED SPORT program aims to work closely with supplement manufacturers and suppliers by providing high quality, analytical testing to minimize the incidence of banned contaminants finding their way into the competition of sports.
• INFORMED-CHOICE & INFORMED-SPORT was established in 2007 by LGC Sport Science. At that time, it became clear that there was a need for a comprehensive certification program, which not only tested products for banned substances but also manufactured products in qualified facilities meeting FDA GMP standards.
