TruShield Certified is a banned-substance verification program focused exclusively on anti-doping analysis, developed by the same laboratory trusted by many other professional sports leagues and Olympic programs. The program has now awarded its first certification to an individual ingredient, not a complex product from a sports nutrition company, but a specific ingredient to reassure brands that want to use it and consumers who like the look of it.
The ingredient that is now TruShield Certified is ReDaxin from RedLeaf Biologics, a patented red sorghum extract rich in polyphenols as a source of antioxidants as well as anti-inflammatory support, immune function, and recovery. Following comprehensive, batch-specific screening that confirmed the ingredient is free from more than 400 WADA-prohibited compounds and other high-risk contaminants, ReDaxin has officially earned the certification.
That milestone formalizes a partnership between the growing TruShield Certified program and RedLeaf Biologics, and could very easily open the door for other ingredients to make the effort and have some of their specific ingredients certified.
