Join Thorne’s Medical Science Liaison, Dr. Jennifer Greer, ND, MEd and Joel Totoro, RD along with Fullscript’s Medical Director, Dr. Alex Keller, ND in a discussion on NSF Certification for quality sports supplements.
In addition to being an NSF International GMP-certified facility, Thorne has the most extensive line of NSF Certified for Sport products. Thorne NSF Certified for Sport products are not just for athletes – they are for everyone. The professional athlete, the casual competitor, and everyday individuals alike should have access to Thorne supplements free of banned substances.
NSF Certification allows for safer decisions when choosing supplements and assures practitioners and consumers that a product has been third-party evaluated for safety, quality, sustainability, and performance.
When you see that a Thorne product has been NSF Certified for Sport, it means the product has met the most stringent standards when it comes to safety and quality. These Thorne products are not just for elite athletes, they are for the athlete in all of us.
In this webinar you will learn the following:
- Why Thorne maintains NSF certification and how this differs from basic GMP
- What is NSF Certified for Sport and why is it important
- Thorne’s top NSF Certified for Sport products recommended to support foundational nutrition, training, and recovery
