Thorne (Summerville, SC) has announced that it has expanded its NSF Certified for Sport portfolio to more than 60 products, one of the largest lines in the industry, according to the company. Newly certified products include Protein Optimizer and Vitamin B12 underscoring Thorne’s continued investment in independent third-party testing.

Recognized as the gold standard in third-party supplement certification, NSF Certified for Sport combines independent product testing, formulation and label review, manufacturing facility audits, and ongoing monitoring. The program helps verify that product contents match label claims, checks for unsafe levels of contaminants, and tests finished product lots for substances banned by major athletic organizations.

“Trust is earned through a consistent commitment to quality and the rigor to demonstrate it,” said Amy Caplette, senior vice president of quality and regulatory affairs at Thorne. “At Thorne, that commitment extends from ingredient selection and manufacturing to finished product testing. Independent, third-party certification adds another layer of accountability, giving athletes, health care practitioners and consumers further assurance in the quality of our products.”

While especially valuable for competitive athletes subject to banned-substance testing, NSF Certified for Sport also helps consumers and healthcare practitioners make informed supplement choices through independent verification.

“Whether you’re an athlete, a weekend warrior or someone who wants added confidence in the supplements they buy, Thorne offers more than 60 NSF Certified for Sport products that meet our rigorous standards for safety and label accuracy,” said Chris Kirwin, global head of wellness at NSF. “Trust is our science, and Thorne’s continued expansion of its certified portfolio demonstrates a shared commitment to transparency and safety by giving more people access to independently-certified products.”

The expansion builds on certifications earned earlier this year by Basic Prenatal and three products formulated by and for women: Perimenopause Complete, Women’s Libido Boost, and Radiant Skin Complex, each of which launched with NSF Certified for Sport certification.
