A Matter of Public Record
Every batch is peer-reviewed.
The proof is searchable.
Way to Go Nutrition publishes a Certificate of Analysis for every production lot we have ever released — 41,000+ documents, indexed by SKU, lot number, and date. No asterisks. No marketing copy standing in for evidence.
§ 02 · The Stakes
A contaminated or under-dosed product costs more than a missed PR. It costs a season, a contract, a livelihood.
The athletes we serve compete under drug-tested federations — NCAA, USADA, WADA-affiliated bodies, professional leagues with collective-bargaining agreements. For them, a single positive sample is not a recall; it is a suspension, a vacated result, and in some jurisdictions a criminal proceeding. For the performance staff who source their protocol, the same sample is a credibility wound that follows them for years.
The supplement industry is not regulated to pharmaceutical standards. A label claim of "1,000 mg creatine monohydrate" carries no federal weight: the bottle can contain 600 mg, or 1,400 mg, or — in documented cases — a stimulant not listed at all. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration does not approve dietary supplements before they reach market, and the burden of purity falls on whoever signs the purchase order.
Way to Go Nutrition was founded in 2018 to close that gap. Our formulas are authored in-house by four PhD nutritional scientists and two Registered Dietitians, dosed at the threshold proven effective in human trials (no pixie-dusted label-claim amounts), and every batch is independently screened by an ISO/IEC 17025-accredited third-party laboratory before it ships.
§ 03 · The Panel
What every single batch is tested against.
Four published standards, run on every lot of every SKU, before release. This is not a curated highlight reel — it is the standing audit.
-
01
Identity & Potency
HPLC and mass-spectrometry confirmation that the active ingredient is present at ≥ 95 % of label claim and is the correct molecular form — creatine monohydrate, not creatine HCl; beta-alanine, not taurine.
Method · USP <621>, AOAC 2017.04
-
02
Banned-Substance Screen
Full NSF Certified for Sport prohibited-list panel — over 300 substances including stimulants, anabolic agents, hormones, beta-2 agonists, and masking compounds — at NSF-defined action limits.
Method · NSF/ANSI 173, Section 6
-
03
Heavy Metals & Contaminants
Inductively-coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) screen for lead, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury, plus microbiological plate counts for total aerobic count, yeast, mold, and coliforms.
Method · USP <232>/<233>, USP <2021>/<2022>
-
04
Label Accuracy
Independent third-party comparison of finished-product content against the printed Supplement Facts panel. Results published verbatim — including the rare lots that fall below tolerance and are rejected.
Method · AOAC SMPR 2020.003
§ 04 · The Record
Zero positive doping-test results across 9,400+ sponsored-athlete consumptions.
The figure is not rounded. It is not qualified. Every Way to Go Nutrition–sponsored athlete who has appeared on a federated anti-doping test panel since we began tracking in 2021 has returned a negative result. The roster, the sample count, and the protocol that produced the number are all published in the report.
