Seems like supplements will have to be "officially approved" by each sport's respective governing bodies prior to usage, or simply to be on the safe side.

InfiAid(R) Named First Certified for Sport(TM) Dietary Supplement; Designation Recognized by Major League Baseball
Product Helps Users Recover More Quickly, Relieve Joint Discomfort and
Support Healing with Proprietary Delivery System
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Oct. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- Athletes and consumers have
long faced a growing selection of nutritional supplements with little or no
way to verify that ingredient labels accurately reflect the true contents
of products. For professional athletes, this is especially vital to ensure
that products do not contain banned substances. To provide a neutral,
third-party standard for minimizing the risk that a product contains banned
substances, NSF International recently launched the Certified for Sport(TM)
program and named InfiAid(R) by Infinity2 Health Sciences as the first
certified dietary supplement.
The Certified for Sport program is the only substance certification
recognized by Major League Baseball and the Major League Baseball Players
Association. The organizations recommend that if players do take dietary
supplements or sports nutrition products, that the products be certified by
NSF. In addition, the Certified for Sport program authenticates products
and inspects facilities for a range of substances identified by other
leading organizations, such as the World Anti-Doping Agency and the
National Football League.
"All too often, an athlete can be caught off guard by testing positive
for illegal or contaminating substances that may have been undeclared on
the product label," said Shan Stratton, vice president of Sports Marketing
for Infinity2. "With a career on the line, they can't afford to unknowingly
taint themselves. The Certified for Sport program is changing the face of
dietary supplements as we know it, and InfiAid is breaking ground as the
first product allowed in clubhouses of professional sports organizations."
InfiAid Helps a Faster Recovery
Athletes often push their bodies to the limit, and the resulting
physical exertion can take a toll on muscles and joints. InfiAid(R)
provides athletes with a certified safe product that delivers natural,
high-quality ingredients to help them bounce back from injury. The product
supports the body's healing process and promotes bone and joint health with
a proprietary blend of enzymes, powerful herbs and antioxidants. By
optimizing the body's anti- inflammatory process, InfiAid(R) promotes
faster recovery from exercise and strenuous athletic competition.
InfiAid(R)'s enzyme technology, coupled with a state-of-the-art nutrient
delivery system, makes it a safe and extremely beneficial product that
helps put athletes back in the game.
"Inflammation is a natural reaction to injury, but it can hinder an
athlete's performance," said Dr. Brent Allan, medical director, Infinity2.
"Infinity2 has always touted the safe use of our products to help athletes,
and with this certification, InfiAid verifies that it has met NSF's
rigorous criteria and does not contain any banned substances, allowing
athletes to use InfiAid(R) with confidence."
Certified for Sport Provides Thorough Review Process
NSF Certified for Sport directly addresses the growing concerns of
professional and amateur athletes, coaches, trainers and consumers.
"Seemingly safe supplements often contain undeclared ingredients, which
is a growing and valid concern of consumers, players and trainers in all
sports," said Kathy Jordon, MS, RD, general manager, NSF Dietary Supplement
Certification Program. "The last thing any athlete wants is to test
positive for a banned substance when they thought they were in the clear.
Our certification program directly speaks to their concerns and lets them
feel secure in taking or recommending NSF-approved supplements."
This new, stringent certification program guarantees that a product
contains only ingredients listed on the product label and does not contain
unacceptable quantities or unwanted contaminants in the recommended serving
size.
"To be designated Certified for Sport, InfiAid successfully completed a
meticulous testing and evaluation process," said Dr. Allan. "NSF's
independent review of the formulation and label, toxicology review,
manufacturing facility inspection and comprehensive laboratory analysis all
must check out before a product can display the NSF Certified for Sport
label. By passing the NSF testing, InfiAid(R) proves that the label
contents match the product. Ongoing monitoring of products and
manufacturing facilities ensure approved products continue to comply with
Certified for Sport guidelines."
Regulatory, industry and consumer groups participated in the
development of NSF's independent substance certification process and
guidelines. Currently, NSF maintains the only accredited American National
Standard to certify dietary supplements, building on a successful 60-year
history of providing certification programs for food, water and consumer
goods. NSF is the only third-party testing organization to completely
evaluate every aspect of a product's production before awarding a seal of
approval.
"Infinity2 has always emphasized a commitment to making quality, pure
products, and InfiAid's first-in-class NSF certification reinforces that,"
said Dr. Allan. "As a physician dedicated to health, Certified for Sport
provides a reassurance of safety, and has real applications across all
professional and amateur sports. InfiAid delivers that peace of mind in the
form of a revolutionary all natural product that can be used by athletes
and active people alike. I recommend InfiAid(R) for active children and
adults who desire a natural alternative to common over the counter and
prescription anti- inflammatory medications."
Unique Delivery and Absorption Provided Through InfiAid(R)
InfiAid(R) packs a powerful combination of natural herbs and
proteolytic enzymes, supporting the immune system's natural
anti-inflammatory process. The foundation of InfiAid is CAeDS(R), or
Chelate Activated Enzyme Delivery System. After years of research, the
Infinity2 formulation team developed CAeDS(R), a nutrient delivery system
providing maximum effectiveness that is unmatched by any other product on
the market. CAeDS(R) was developed by Infinity2 Health Sciences to
guarantee maximum nutrient delivery and effectiveness.
Taking a nutritional supplement is one thing, but being sure nutrients
are actually delivered to and used by every cell and tissue is another.
Every time a supplement enters the body, the nutrients require other
vitamins and minerals to work effectively. InfiAid employs the CAeDS(R)
system to ensure quicker and higher absorption of nutrients by providing
minerals necessary for optimum enzyme activity, guaranteeing that nutrients
in each product are delivered to the cells of the body and supporting the
natural absorption process.
