NSF Certified for Sport® Supplements You Can Verify

XR® is an NSF Certified for Sport® amino acid supplement, independently tested to confirm it is free of banned substances, accurately labeled, and screened for contaminants.

In an industry where most products are never tested by anyone but the company selling them, NSF certification is the standard trusted by professional leagues, anti doping agencies, and the surgeons who formulated XR®.

Our Certification

XR® Is an NSF Certified Supplement

Xcelerated Recovery® carries the NSF Certified for Sport® mark, the leading independent certification for supplements in sport. Every batch of XR® is tested by NSF before it reaches you, not just once at launch.

That matters because XR® serves two groups who cannot afford uncertainty: drug tested athletes whose careers depend on a clean result, and surgical patients whose recovery depends on getting exactly what the label promises.

Our surgeon formulated amino acid blend was built for clinical use from day one. Certification was never optional for us. It is the baseline for any supplement recommended in an operating room or a training room.

What Certification Verifies

Every Batch. Three Screens. Zero Guesswork.

The Certified for Sport® program tests finished products against three standards. A supplement only carries the mark while every batch keeps passing.

Batch Testing Summary Program: NSF Certified for Sport®

Banned Substance Screen

Tested against more than 290 substances banned by major athletic and anti doping organizations, including stimulants, steroids, and masking agents.

Pass Required

Label Claim Verification

Contents are confirmed to match the label exactly. What is printed on an XR® packet is what is in the packet, at the stated dose.

Pass Required

Contaminant Screening

Screened for unsafe levels of heavy metals, pesticides, and other contaminants, with ongoing audits of the manufacturing facility itself.

Pass Required

Certification is maintained through continuous testing. Any batch that fails loses the mark.

Who Certification Protects

Built for People Who Cannot Risk a Bad Batch

Drug Tested Athletes

A contaminated supplement can end a season or a career, and athletes are held responsible for anything in their system. NSF certified supplements for sport are the only products many leagues and anti doping agencies consider safe to recommend. XR® gives competitors clinical grade recovery support without the risk.

Surgical and Injury Patients

Recovery is a metabolic challenge, and precision matters. When a surgeon recommends a specific dose of amino acids, creatine, or HMB, label accuracy is a clinical requirement, not a nice to have. Certification confirms every XR® serving delivers the formulation your recovery plan is built on.

Common Questions

NSF Certification, Answered

What does NSF Certified for Sport® mean?

NSF Certified for Sport® is an independent third party certification program for dietary supplements. It verifies that a product is free of more than 290 banned substances, that the contents match the label, and that the product contains no unsafe levels of contaminants. It is the only certification program of its kind recognized by USADA, MLB, the NHL, and the CFL.

Is XR® an NSF certified supplement?

Yes. Xcelerated Recovery® is NSF Certified for Sport®, and every batch is tested as part of maintaining certification. You can confirm our listing in the official NSF certified products database at nsfsport.com.

How do I verify that a supplement is NSF certified?

Look for the Certified for Sport® mark on the packaging, then confirm the listing in the searchable database at nsfsport.com or in the NSF Sport mobile app. If a product is not in the database, it is not certified, regardless of what the marketing says.

Why do athletes need NSF certified supplements for sport?

Under anti doping rules, athletes are strictly liable for any banned substance found in their system, even if it came from a contaminated supplement. Studies have repeatedly found unlisted ingredients in uncertified products. Choosing NSF certified supplements is the most reliable way for drug tested athletes to reduce that risk.

Does NSF certification matter if I am not an athlete?

Yes. For surgical and injury patients, certification confirms dose accuracy and purity, which is essential when a supplement is part of a clinical recovery plan. It also protects anyone who simply wants proof that a product contains what it claims and nothing it does not.
