Brand Overview

Transparent Labs built its entire brand around the thing most supplement companies avoid: showing you exactly what is in the product and at what dose. No proprietary blends, no hidden ingredient amounts, no fillers or artificial additives. Every product lists every ingredient with the exact milligram amount on the label. Their sports nutrition line - pre-workout, protein, creatine, and fish oil - consistently uses clinically studied ingredient forms at doses that match the research. Products are third-party tested for label accuracy and banned substances. Pricing is mid-to-upper range. Transparent Labs is the most recommended brand for people who have read this site's methodology and want to apply it: clean labels, clinical doses, verified quality.

$3.33/day770kcal/serving$49.99 (15 servings)

$49.99 ÷ 15 days at 770kcal/day (1 serving × 770kcal)

✓ Third-party testedThird-party tested (internal program)

The 'lean gainer' format: roughly half the calories of a typical mass gainer, with carbohydrates from oat flour and sweet potato instead of pure maltodextrin, and a real 3g creatine monohydrate dose. Best for moderate hardgainers who want a meal-replacement-shaped macro profile rather than a 1,250 kcal liquid bomb. Drops a tier on quality because the third-party testing is internal rather than NSF or Informed Sport.

+Whole-food carbs from oat flour and sweet potato
+Full 3g clinical creatine monohydrate dose
+Grass-fed whey, no proprietary blends
Mid-pack per calorie even at the current sale price
Third-party testing is internal, not NSF

$59.99 ÷ 30 days at 28g/day (1 serving × 28g)

✓ Third-party testedThird-party tested (internal program)

The highest protein dose per scoop in this comparison at 28g. Drops from the top tier because it lacks an external third-party certification like Informed Sport or NSF - the brand's self-published testing, while detailed, does not meet the same standard.

+Highest protein dose per scoop at 28g
+Grass-fed isolate with clean ingredient list
+Full amino acid disclosure on label
No Informed Sport or NSF certification
Expensive at $2.00 per day
