Creatine has finally gone mainstream, appearing on Costco shelves and recommended by pediatricians and geriatricians alike. But as the category explodes beyond hardcore gym-goers, a new conversation is emerging: purity differences measured in decimal points matter far less than creatine that actually works better. LiposoMax® + Creatine delivers exactly that, with published research showing 2X cellular uptake and complete mitochondrial recovery compared to standard creatine monohydrate.
One Innovation Labs applied their proprietary liposomal delivery platform to creatine, enabling faster absorption, lower effective doses (potentially 2.5-3g matching 5g standard doses), and new format possibilities from gummies to beverages. Now distributed by Prinova, North America's largest creatine distributor, this technology opens premium positioning for brands targeting female consumers, older adults, and wellness-focused buyers who care about efficacy, not just purity percentages. Discover how enhanced cellular delivery is reshaping creatine's role in cognitive support, immune function, and longevity.
Episode #193 of the PricePlow Podcast features Lori Bestervelt, Ph.D., and Thane Campbell from TruShield™ Certified, introducing a new certification approach that tests supplements for over 400 banned substances using WADA-level methodologies. With Lori's 22 years creating industry standards at NSF International and Thane's expertise from SMRTL (one of only two WADA-experienced anti-doping laboratories in the United States), they're challenging the status quo of supplement certification by focusing exclusively on what athletes need most: certainty that their products are free from banned substances.
The conversation explores how the supplement industry hasn't kept pace with modern supply chain realities, cross-contamination risks in manufacturing, and why comprehensive finished product testing matters more than ever. Whether you're a brand seeking athlete protection or a consumer wanting transparency about what's actually in your supplements, this episode delivers critical insights into the future of supplement safety and certification.
