LOS ANGELES – November 8, 2017 – BSCG (Banned Substances Control Group), a leading independent dietary supplement certification provider, is pleased to announce that Mat Rat Supplements, a top manufacturer of sports nutrition supplements for combat athletes, has joined its client roster and received BSCG Certified Quality™ certifications for its Mat Prep™ and Fight Right™ products.
“We are pleased to welcome to our Certified Quality™ program a unique and well-regarded company producing supplements for the combat athlete,” said BSCG President and co-founder Oliver Catlin. “Having worked in and around boxers and mixed martial artists, we have knowledge of this arena and are delighted to work with Mat Rat to help ensure its products are as safe as possible for these athletes.”
Highly regarded for its quality-control standards, broad testing menu, and rigorous analytical laboratory testing, BSCG offers three main certifications to supplement brands, ingredient suppliers, and manufacturing facilities: BSCG Certified Quality™, BSCG Certified GMP™, and BSCG Certified Drug Free®.
BSCG Certified Quality™ provides certification for dietary supplements and natural products to verify label claims or ingredient identity and ingredient quantification and to screen for the presence of heavy metals, pesticides, solvents, and microbiological agents. The BSCG Certified Quality™ seal signifies that a product has not just met one standard but has met or exceeded all industry standards, including AHPA, ANSI and USP.
“We are thrilled to join the respected Catlin team at BSCG to help deliver the highest quality sports nutrition products to our combat consumers,” said Miles Ortiz, Mat Rat CEO. “To our top-of-the-line ingredients, great taste, and unique focus on the combat athlete, our products can now add proven quality.”
Mat Rat Supplements, based in Danville, California, delivers premium sports nutrition supplements formulated specifically for combat athletes in such sports as Brazilian jiu-jitsu, MMA, kick boxing, boxing, and judo, as well as for those active in the military and law enforcement. The company’s goal is to offer products that help consumers perform at their highest level in training, fight, or competition and to recover and get their bodies prepared and ready to do it again tomorrow.
Mat Prep™ is a pre-combat synergy aiming to boost energy and minimize fatigue, enhance muscle strength and endurance, and heighten neuro-focus and mind-muscle connection. Fight Right™ is formulated to rehydrate and help the combat athlete recover while keeping them anabolic and building muscle.
BSCG (Banned Substances Control Group) was founded in 2004 by world-renowned Olympic drug-testing pioneer Dr. Don Catlin and his son, executive Oliver Catlin, to offer reputable supplement manufacturers, suppliers, and distributors a third-party program to establish that their products are free of banned substance concerns and to provide consumers and athletes help in ensuring that what they’re taking will not endanger their health or lead to positive drug tests. BSCG brings the Olympic standard of contaminant testing, label verification, and quality control to dietary supplements and natural products.
Look for the BSCG Certified Quality™ seal soon on Mat Rat products in stores and online marketplaces. All certified batches of Mat Rat products can soon be found on the BSCG website at /bscg-certified-quality-clients/.
