From A to Zinc- Episode 5

How do you really know what’s inside your supplements? And can you trust the label on the bottle?

In this episode, we dive into the world of third-party supplement testing with NSF International, the global leader in certification. With over 80 years of setting safety standards across 100+ countries, NSF helps ensure supplements actually contain what they claim, and nothing they shouldn’t.

We unpack:
•Why third-party testing matters (and what can go wrong when it’s skipped)
•What “tested” and “certified” really mean on supplement labels
•The difference between NSF’s standard certification and NSF Certified for Sport™
•The inside look at how supplements get certified — and why not every brand passes
•Practical tips for consumers: what to look for on labels, where to verify products, and how to choose supplements you can trust

If you’ve ever stood in the supplement aisle wondering which brands are safe, this episode gives you the toolkit you need.

🎧 Tune in and learn how to shop smarter, stay safe, and make supplements work for you.
