The Indian supplement market has a counterfeit problem. From fake whey protein on Amazon to repackaged bulk powder sold as premium brands in local shops.

Check FSSAI licensing  every legitimate supplement must have an FSSAI license number. Verify batch numbers with the manufacturer. Look for third-party lab reports. Buy from authorized sellers. Check texture and taste — genuine creatine monohydrate is a fine, white, odorless powder.
