Whether it’s the robust quality of a German beer or the dependability of a Swiss timepiece, finding the best sometimes requires a global perspective; and the same applies to supplements. Unquestionably, effective nutritional supplements need a high level of purity and potency, which requires an exhaustive worldwide search if you want the highest-grade ingredients available. You might be surprised to learn that in a day’s intake of ProSource supplements you’re using tribulus from Bulgaria (AndroTest), creatine from Germany (Synthatrex Extreme), glutamine from Japan, and whey protein from—how ‘bout this—good old USA (NytroWhey protein line). At ProSource, no stone is left unturned in order to find the most advanced and best ingredients for optimum effectiveness and purity.

You might be tempted to believe this, given some of the ad hype and questionable advice from certain gym rats. But you would be doing yourself a disservice if you gave in for the simple reason that lower grade supplements are just not as effective. This becomes a serious problem when you consider the fact that purity percentage in extracts can vary by as much as 50% or more and some creatines on the market can contain up to 5% impurities. The fact is, lower-grade compounds and extracts are simply not assimilated and utilized as well by the body as higher-grade compounds. If you had to choose only one method for selecting a product, virtually all experts in the field of supplementation would agree that it should be ingredient purity and potency. The bottom line is this: All the research and product development, fancy labeling and high-end marketing mean nothing without high-grade, pure ingredients.
