Athlete Safe supplements have been tested for purity and banned substances, making them safe for competitive athletes to incorporate into their supplement regime. Tested federations include HASTA, Informed Sports and Informed Choice. Refer to the label before usage. 

What does athlete safe mean?

Athlete safe refers to products that have been batch tested by an independent programme for substances banned in sport. In Australia the main programme is HASTA, and Informed Sport is the common international equivalent. Testing is done batch by batch, and the certificate applies to that batch rather than to the brand as a whole.

This matters because supplements are not required to be tested for banned substances before sale, and contamination during manufacture is a documented problem. Under anti-doping rules, strict liability applies: an athlete is responsible for what is in their body regardless of how it got there, and not knowing a product was contaminated is not a defence. Sport Integrity Australia's guidance on this is linked below.

How to use this category

If you compete under an anti-doping code, check the specific batch number of the product you are holding against the testing programme's database rather than relying on the range being listed here. Batch testing is per batch. Speak to your sport's integrity officer if you are unsure. Supplements are not a substitute for medical advice. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, take prescription medication, or are managing a health condition, check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting something new.

Frequently asked questions

What is batch testing?

An independent laboratory tests a specific production batch for substances on the banned list, and that batch is then certified. It reduces risk substantially, but it certifies the batch tested rather than every batch a brand ever makes, which is why checking your own batch number matters.

Does batch tested mean guaranteed safe?

It means that batch was screened against the programme's list and passed, which is the strongest assurance available to a consumer. It is not an absolute guarantee, and under strict liability the athlete remains responsible. It lowers risk; it does not remove responsibility.

What is HASTA?

Human and Supplement Testing Australia, an Australian programme that batch tests supplements for substances prohibited in sport. Products that pass carry a HASTA certification for that batch. Informed Sport is the equivalent programme used more widely internationally.

Why are ordinary supplements a risk for athletes?

Because supplements are not required to be screened for banned substances before sale, and cross contamination can occur where facilities also handle other ingredients. There have been cases of products containing substances not declared on the label. For someone subject to testing, that is a serious risk.

Where do I check whether a product is permitted?

Sport Integrity Australia provides guidance and resources for Australian athletes, and your sport's anti-doping officer can advise on your specific code. Check the batch, not just the product name, and do it before you take anything.
