Frequently Asked Questions
How many supplement brands hold multiple third-party certifications?
Of 7,882 brands in our database, 52 (0.7%) hold two or more recognized third-party certifications from NSF, USP, Informed Sport, or Informed Choice. Of those, 0 hold three or more — the gold standard for supplement verification.
What do NSF, USP, and Informed Sport actually verify?
NSF Certified for Sport tests for banned substances and verifies label accuracy — it is recognized by the NFL, MLB, NHL, and USADA. USP Verified is the oldest US pharmaceutical quality standard and audits manufacturing facilities. Informed Sport and Informed Choice test every batch for over 250 banned substances and are recognized by WADA-affiliated organizations. A brand holding multiple certifications has passed independent testing from multiple labs using different methodologies.
Is a brand with multiple certifications always safer?
In our trust-score algorithm, multi-certified brands score an average of 19.6 points higher than the overall average (83.9/100 vs 64.3/100 for all brands). Multiple certifications strongly indicate a brand willing to invest in independent verification across different testing standards. That said, certifications are per-product — check that the specific product you are buying carries the seal, not just the brand as a whole.
Which certification combos are most common?
The most common multi-cert combinations in our database: NSF + Informed Sport (7 brands), NSF + USP (0 brands), and USP + Informed Sport (0 brands). Brands focused on the sports supplement market tend toward NSF + Informed Sport because both are recognized by athletic governing bodies.
Do certified brands still have recalls?
Yes — certification is not a guarantee against recalls. Certifications verify that tested lots meet purity and label-accuracy standards, but recalls typically happen for manufacturing, labeling, or contamination issues in specific production runs. A multi-certified brand with an occasional recall is generally still more trustworthy than an uncertified brand, because the brand has a documented testing program and incident response capability.
