Informed Choice

What Does It Mean to Be Informed Choice Certified?

You may have noticed the Informed Choice logo on our Re-Lyte Hydration products and wondered what that actually means.

Re-Lyte is a clean electrolyte drink, and being Informed Choice certified means it has been tested to ensure it’s free from banned substances and made in a facility that meets strict quality and safety standards. It’s one more way we help you feel confident about what you’re putting in your body.

How Did Re-Lyte Earn Its Certification?

Getting Informed Choice certified is not a quick or simple process.

Before certification, our manufacturing facility and processes were carefully reviewed to make sure we meet high-quality standards. This included audits of production, staff training, and safety systems designed to prevent cross-contamination. Even our raw material suppliers were evaluated to ensure every ingredient meets high standards.

At the same time, samples of Re-Lyte were tested by third-party labs to confirm there were no banned substances or contamination.

Once everything passed, Re-Lyte qualified for certification.

But it doesn’t stop there.

Ongoing Testing and Accountability

Informed Choice certification is not a one-time approval. It’s ongoing.

Re-Lyte is regularly reviewed, including monthly blind testing. This means products are purchased directly from random store shelves and tested independently to make sure they continue to meet the same high standards.

That kind of ongoing verification helps ensure consistency, quality, and transparency over time.

You can even see the tested batches and results for yourself on the Informed Choice website.

Does This Matter If I’m Not an Athlete?

While this certification is especially important for athletes who need to avoid banned substances, it’s also valuable for anyone who wants to know their supplements are clean and accurately labeled.

Even small amounts of contamination can be a concern, which is why third-party testing matters. Informed Choice helps take the guesswork out and gives you confidence that what’s on the label matches what’s inside.

Informed Choice vs. Informed Sport

You may have also seen a similar logo that says “Informed Sport,” so it’s worth clearing up the difference.

Re-Lyte is Informed Choice certified, not Informed Sport Certified.

Informed Sport is designed specifically for elite athletes and requires that every batch of a product is tested before it reaches the market. Informed Choice products are tested monthly through blind testing after they’re already on the shelves

Both programs use the same high-quality testing standards, but Informed Sport takes an extra step for athletes whose careers depend on strict compliance.

The Bottom Line

Re-Lyte is built on simple, clean ingredients to support better hydration. Informed Choice certification helps verify that commitment through independent testing and ongoing monitoring.

So when you see that logo, you can feel confident you’re choosing clean hydration held to a high standard.
