How it reads on the shelf
Questions.
Is BELAY third-party tested, and does it use proprietary blends?
Not yet certified — Series 002 is our first production run, so there is no NSF Certified for Sport, Informed Sport, USP, or BSCG certification in place. Every lot is tested by an independent lab for heavy metals and banned substances before it ships, and the Certificate of Analysis is published by lot number. BELAY contains no proprietary blends. Every active is listed at its full per-serving dose on the front of the label: creatine monohydrate 5,000mg, tart cherry extract 480mg, reishi 500mg, magnesium glycinate 200mg. No artificial sweeteners, no dyes.
Why is the creatine in the recovery tub?
Because that's when you'll remember to take it. Consistency beats timing.
Will it make me sleepy?
No. Magnesium glycinate and reishi lean calm, not sedative. It's built for the hour after load, whenever that hour is.
Is 5,000mg of creatine the loading dose?
It's the maintenance dose, taken daily. No loading phase, no cycling. Four weeks of showing up does what a loading week pretends to.
What does tart cherry do?
It's studied for post-exercise soreness and sleep quality. 480mg of extract, which is the studied range — not a splash for the label.
Can I take it on rest days?
Yes, and you should. Creatine works by saturation. Rest days are where the ritual earns its keep.
