CytoSport Inc. has earned certification from NSF International’s Athletic Banned Substances Certification program for its Muscle Milk (Vanilla Crème, Chocolate and Cookies ‘N Crème) products.

The NSF Certified for Sport program is designed to reduce the risk that a dietary or sports supplement contains banned substances.

The NSF Certified for Sport program was developed in response to growing demands by athletes, coaches, team owners and others concerned about finding banned substances in sports nutrition products. NSF International’s Certified for Sport program is recognized by the National Football League (NFL), Major League Baseball (MLB), Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport (CCES), the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) and the PGA, among other major sports organizations.

“It has been our mission to provide only the highest quality nutritional products to both professional and amateur athletes striving to reach their potential. For over 11 years, CytoSport has manufactured high quality, efficacious products and this certification from NSF International solidifies that mission,” said Chris Kildow, Director of Sports Marketing, CytoSport.

CytoSport fully supports the efforts of NSF International and leading sports organizations, including the International Olympic Committee (IOC), NFL and the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), to eliminate the use of performance-enhancing drugs and steroids.

CytoSport’s Certified for Sport approval complements CytoSport’s existing NSF International Dietary Supplements and NSF Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) for Sport Certifications
