When you walk into a supplement store or browse products online, the rows of protein jars, creatine tubs, and pre-workout blends can feel overwhelming. From cryptic ingredient lists to flashy health claims, it’s hard to know what’s real and what’s marketing fluff. At TFN Health, we meet hundreds of beginners and fitness enthusiasts every week who ask the same question: “How do I know what I’m actually buying?”

That’s why we’ve created this comprehensive, easy-to-understand guide to help you read supplement labels like a pro—and make smart, safe, and effective choices for your health and fitness goals.

1. EXPERIENCE: Real Questions from Real People at TFN Health

At TFN Health stores across Ludhiana, Delhi, and beyond, we’ve seen the confusion firsthand. A college student walked into our Ludhiana branch recently, holding a protein tub he bought online. “Bro, is this real or fake?” he asked. Our in-store verification system immediately flagged it as counterfeit. We showed him how to spot fake labels, explained what ingredients to look for in a genuine product, and helped him pick a lab-tested whey protein suited to his goal of lean muscle gain.

These aren’t isolated incidents. They’re daily stories at TFN.

Whether it’s a gym newbie trying to understand the difference between isolate and concentrate, or an athlete looking to time their creatine intake, TFN Health’s in-store experts provide real-time guidance that goes beyond what’s written on a label.

2. EXPERTISE: Break Down the Label Like a Pro

Here’s what to look for on a supplement label:

✅ Serving Size

This tells you how much of the product to consume per serving. Always check whether the nutritional info is per scoop or per 100g.

✅ Ingredients List

Listed from highest to lowest quantity. Shorter lists with transparent ingredients = better. Watch for unnecessary fillers like maltodextrin, artificial colors, or hidden sugars.

✅ Macronutrients

Especially important for protein powders and mass gainers:

1. Protein (g) – Whey Isolate > 90%, Whey Concentrate ~70–80%

2. Carbs (g) – Check for added sugars in gainers

3. Fats (g) – Should be minimal i.n lean proteins

✅ Other Actives

For products like pre-workouts, look for ingredients like:

• Caffeine (100–300mg per serving)

• Beta-Alanine (1.6–3.2g)

• Creatine Monohydrate (3–5g)

✅ Certification & Testing

Look for:

• FSSAI license number

• Lab certification logos

• QR codes for batch verification

💡 TFN Tip: Every supplement we stock at TFN Health is verified, certified, and batch-tested—so you don’t have to second guess.
