Naked Nutrition

Naked Nutrition makes protein powders and supplements built around short ingredient lists, with many products containing three ingredients or fewer. The range covers grass-fed whey, pea and other plant proteins, collagen, creatine, protein coffee and daily vitamins, all made without artificial sweeteners, flavors or colors. Stephen Zieminski, a former University of Florida track athlete, started the brand in 2014 with five single-ingredient supplements after struggling to find a protein powder he trusted.

• Are the products safe for people with nut or gluten allergies?

  No gluten-containing ingredients are used, and products are tested for gluten. Most products are processed in nut- and soy-free facilities but packaged on lines shared with soy and nuts, which are cleaned between runs.

• Do you sell lactose-free dairy protein?

  No. All dairy-based proteins contain lactose, though goat whey contains a different form of lactose than cow's milk whey. A vegan line is also available.

• Who tests the products?

  Products are tested by a third-party lab in the United States, including for heavy metals.

• Are the facilities GMP certified?

  Yes. All processing and packaging facilities are GMP certified, audited by Silliker.

• Are any products NSF certified?

  Several proteins and supplements are NSF content certified, meaning their contents are tested for accuracy and purity.

• Are the containers BPA free?

  Yes. Containers are made from PET plastic, which is BPA free.

• How are the cows treated?

  The cows graze on pasture whenever possible, are never given growth hormones, and receive antibiotics only in life-or-death situations.

• Do products contain banned substances?

  No product contains anything on the banned substance list, and the production facilities never handle such substances.
