CLEARANCE

Did you know we have a full clearance section?

We check expiration dates in our warehouse on a monthly basis, and we are constantly updating our clearance section with great deals on expired and near expiring items. You can find cheap bodybuilding supplements for sale including short-dated and expired protein, pre-workouts, creatine, post-workouts, muscle builders, fat burners, energy supplements and vitamins all at huge discounts.

Why do items end up in the clearance section?

Well supplements are sometimes a lot like fashion for some items, as things can be trendy. For instance, a Meal Replacement Powder that was hot 6 months ago, may not be as popular now. As a result, we end up with excess inventory. This is where you can walk away with a great deal. We sell these items for less, to make room for new items, and in most cases, we’d rather sell them to you for a discount than throw them out.

How long past the expiration date are supplements safe and potent?

Vitamins and supplements have an expiration date assigned at the time of manufacturing. This is done by reputable manufacturers (all supplements we carry have an expiration date), as it is not required by the FDA.¹ The evidence demonstrating the exact expiration date needed is lacking. What we mean by that is the date is somewhat arbitrary and is a conservative estimate. In other words, it’s not an exact date based on the potency of a given ingredient being compromised. Rather it’s just that date is placed on the item, and manufacturers assign a date that is long before the shelf life is compromised. It benefits manufacturers to be conservative with this date for a couple of reasons. First, it more or less guarantees 100% potency, and it encourages more sales.

The factors that will determine the shelf life of a supplement are, 1) the ingredients/type of supplement 2) where they are stored 3) the initial quality.

1) Items, such as ready-to-drinks and bars have a much shorter shelf life than vitamins and other dry powders. When stored properly and the initial quality standard is met, one can expect the following:

Vitamins/minerals, amino acids, and most herbs in a capsule or tablet form remain maximally potent for roughly 2 years after the expiration date.
Fish and flax oils in a liquid form are not sold past expiration by Best Price Nutrition as polyunsaturated fats are not very stable, to begin with, and therefore require extra care (we refrigerate them). Fish oil and EFA capsules are typically stable and potent for up to 6 months after the expiration/sell-by date (we recommend refrigerating them after opening).
Probiotics made from reputable manufacturers are typically dosed much higher than label claims to ensure maximal potency months after manufacturing. Therefore, most are maximally potent, in terms of label claim for up to 6 months past the expiration/sell-by date.
Protein powders are good for at least 1 year after expiration. Storing these in a cool and dry place will extend the shelf life greatly (in many cases beyond 1 year after expiration).
Preworkout and other amino acid powders – Like protein powders, the same can be said for these powders. Sometimes these powders can harden up and clump if they are stored in a warm, moist place. In other cases, this may happen due to a particular ingredient. We do not sell powders in this condition, unless noted, regardless of the expiration date.
Enzymes – These are maximally potent for up to one year after expiration. After that they are not useless, however, they will begin to lose potency.
Skincare/cosmetic products – the expiration dates vary greatly amongst these products. It is safe to assume these remain potent for at least 1 year after expiration.

2) Ensuring supplements are stored in a cool, dry place away from unnecessary light will extend the shelf life. We maintain a temperature-controlled warehouse. We keep supplements away from unnecessary light, heat, and moisture.

3) One of the main factors in determining the long-term quality and consequent shelf life of a supplement is the initial quality. Supplements are made by reputable manufacturers in a sterile environment. They are tested at the time of manufacturing with a microbial limit, non-essential materials, heavy metals, and pro-oxidant residue test.
