OUR RESEARCH WON'T QUIT EITHER.

OUR MISSION

Help high-performance athletes achieve their athletic best by providing top quality products. At DFS, we are committed to developing the science-first sport supplement category by delivering high-quality nutritional supplements specifically tailored to trainers and practitioners supporting athletes. We strive to enhance our partnerships by educating athletic trainers and coaches, while delivering leading tools for athletic practice and development.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

Our Science-first foundation is demonstrated by our commitment to promote research-driven products, synergistic formulas, and clinically relevant quantities of therapeutic ingredients. We work tirelessly to evolve our ingredients and remain at the forefront of sport health and science.

OUR TEAM

DFS is a division of Designs for Health which was founded in 1989 by a local team of nutritionists. Despite building trusting relationships with their customers by providing them with top-quality products, Designs for Health recognized a gap in the market that presented an opportunity to further cultivate the client relationship through better education, better products, and a better user experience. That drive and commitment to perpetual improvement has allowed us to blitz the premium athletic supplement category and take it by storm.

OUR POSITION

Being exclusively trainer-focused, we have created our trainer-only product line dedicated to providing knowledge and resources to athletic coaches, trainers, and influencers with an unmatched sports supplement.

RESEARCH. RESURGENCE

ALWAYS PURE AND EFFECTIVE SOLUTIONS

Customers come back to us time and time for the high quality and true functionality of our products. DFS supplements are designed by healthcare professionals for athletic professionals, to provide the best results for your clients. Developing efficacious nutritional therapies means utilizing the purest rawest materials available and understanding the fundamental factors that impact clinical results.

SCIENCE BASED FORMULA DESIGN

Formulations are crafted with the ideal combinations of ingredients at potencies that maximize successful training outcomes. Only ingredients backed by intensive scientific research are selected and every nutrient is painstakingly researched for its metabolic pathways and tolerability. DFS offers numerous formulas containing synergistic groups of nutrients that optimize the therapeutic goals for various conditions. Developing these exclusive formulas requires unique expertise and care. Our product development team analyzes the latest studies and research to ensure meaningful quantities of therapeutic elements for our formulas—we use no more, and no less, than the optimal quantity needed to achieve the best possible results.

METICULOUS RAW MATERIAL
AND NUTRIENT SELECTION

DFS works with the most reputable raw material suppliers to select the best ingredients. We understand the importance of purity and the need to address chemical sensitivities. In addition to efficacy and safety, we aim to maximize stability, absorption, and metabolism of our formulas. Our nutritional supplements are free of ingredients commonly associated with negative side effects, including concentrated fruit juices and black pepper extracts. Additionally, almost all of our ingredients come from non-GMO sources. Our commitment to quality guarantees that our products are:

  • Free of gluten
  • Free of soy protein
  • Free of artificial flavouring or sweeteners

RIGOROUS PRODUCT TESTING

Quality is controlled and guaranteed from raw material selection through the manufacturing of the finished product. Our comprehensive testing criteria are designed to evaluate all aspects affecting quality and efficacy, specifically: identity, purity, strength, and composition.

GMP Certified Manufacturing

DFS’s manufacturing facilities are located in the USA and have been certified to be in compliance with the FDA GMP regulations by the NSF International since May 2009. Every year, we undergo four audits by the NSF to verify we are maintaining our compliance. These audits evaluate every aspect of our operations, including quality assurance, raw material and finished product testing, production and distribution procedures, facility and equipment cleanliness, and employee training. Certification gives assurance that DFS products have the identity, strength, composition, quality and purity that appear on our labels.
