About the category

Sports nutrition rewards a short list of proven ingredients, taken at the right moment.

Before and during training, performance and hydration products help sustain output. Afterward, protein and recovery nutrients rebuild what training breaks down. For brands, it is a category with loyal, high-frequency buyers who read labels closely and reward products that deliver.

Know the Dose

Reference ranges from published sports nutrition research and position stands.
  • 3–5 gCreatine per dayThe most researched performance ingredient. A loading phase is optional.
  • 20–40 gProtein per servingThe range typically used to support muscle repair after training.
  • 1.4–2.0 g/kgDaily protein for active peoplePer kilogram of body weight, spread across the day.
  • ~2%Body water lossEnough to measurably reduce performance, which is why hydration matters.

How we formulate

Four Principles Behind Every Formula

Sports buyers compare labels line by line. These principles shape every product we develop with our partners.

Fuel, hydrate, recover

Every product maps to a phase of the session, so customers know exactly when to take it and why.

Protein is the anchor

Around 1.4 to 2.0 g of protein per kg of body weight a day underpins muscle repair for most active people. Recovery products are built around it.

Evidence over hype

A few ingredients such as creatine, caffeine and protein are strongly proven. We dose them properly instead of padding labels with long stacks.

Taste drives repurchase

Sports products are taken daily, often several times a day. Flavor, mixability and texture get as much attention as the formula.

Safety Built into the Brief

We review these points with you during development, so the finished product is easier to label, register and sell.

  • Total caffeineStimulant pre-workouts add up. Caffeine per serving is stated clearly and kept within market limits.
  • Creatine dosing3 to 5 g a day is well supported. Serving size and directions are written around it.
  • Tested athletesIf your customers compete under testing, we plan the formula and documentation around third-party certification such as Informed Sport or NSF Certified for Sport.
  • Protein and fluidHigh-protein products carry clear guidance on daily intake and drinking enough water.
  • Electrolyte balanceMore is not better. Sodium and potassium levels are matched to the intended use, from daily hydration to endurance events.
  • Claims and labelsWe help align formula, claims and label content with the regulations of your target market.

FAQ

Planning Your Sports Nutrition Range?

Answers to the questions brands ask us most often, from formulation to minimum orders.

Do customers need supplements to get fit?

No. Training and whole foods come first. Supplements add convenience, such as protein and electrolytes, and a small, proven performance edge, such as creatine and caffeine. Products positioned honestly this way earn more trust.

Whey or plant protein?

Both build muscle. Whey is higher in leucine and digests quickly. Plant blends work well when they combine sources, such as pea and rice, to cover all essential amino acids. Many brands offer both.

Is creatine safe for long-term use?

Yes. It is one of the most studied supplements in sport, with a strong safety record and consistent benefits for strength and power at 3 to 5 g a day.

Which formats work best for sports products?

Powders and stick packs lead the category for protein, creatine, pre-workout and electrolytes. Capsules suit taste-free dosing, gummies are growing fast for creatine, and gels and effervescent tablets serve endurance athletes.

Can you make products for athletes who compete under testing?

Yes. Tell us which certification your customers need, such as Informed Sport or NSF Certified for Sport, and we plan the formula, ingredient sourcing and documentation around it.

What are your minimum order quantities and lead times?

Powders start from 200 kg, gummies, capsules and tablets from 500 bottles, effervescent tablets from 1,000 tubes and energy gels from 40,000 sachets. Samples are typically ready in about one week, and mass production typically takes 10 to 15 days after final approval.

What documentation can you provide?

Tell us what your market or buyers require. We outline ingredient specifications, supplier information, product specifications and testing documentation for your project.

Do we need a finished formula before contacting you?

No. You can start from a target audience, a preferred ingredient or one of our proven formulas. If you already have a formula, we review it for manufacturing.
