Are you ready to get back to the basics? Basic Supplements launched October 10, 2024, and they’re showing us exactly where they’re manufactured!
Dozens, if not hudreds of new supplement brands are created every year, each promising to have the most innovative new products on the market. With so much noise, it’s difficult for them separate themselves from the pack. Some opt for flash, some for science, and some just bring in the latest sensational influencer.
But today, we’re proud to announce a brand that simply wants to get back to the basics.
Basic Supplements has entered the supplement industry fray, going for a simpler, more professional tone. It’s right there in the name, and they’re promising to give the customer base exactly what many are looking for — affordable, transparent, essential supplements.
The team behind Basic is touting their commitment to delivering just that — the basics — nothing more, and nothing less. From their posts on social media linked below, we see that they have at least a pre-workout in the wings, meaning it’s going to be sports and active nutrition focused.
Below, we describe the initial line-up of supplements from Basic, which kicked things off with a delicious whey protein powder powered by high-quality Glanbia Nutritionals protein sources. Just because the formulas are basic doesn’t mean there’s no quality or flavoring – the flavors have been incredible so far!
Beneath that, there’s a podcast episode with Marc Curcio and Laura Valley, who are running the brand. Now let’s get into the Basic menu:
The Basic Supplements
-
Basic Whey
Basic Supplements has launched their first supplement, Basic Whey, and beyond some fun new flavors, they’re doing things different by disclosing the Glanbia proteins used inside, where their products are manufactured (Nutrablend Foods in Buffalo, NY), and showing the total protein percentage by weight on the front of each tub!
Basic Supplements Whey delivers exactly what athletes and fitness enthusiasts need – a high-quality protein powder without unnecessary complexities. What sets this product apart is its unprecedented transparency: the protein is openly sourced from Glanbia Nutritionals, utilizing their premium Avonlac whey protein concentrate and Provon whey protein isolate, and manufactured at Nutrablend Foods in Buffalo, NY.
Each serving provides 25 grams of protein with just 130 calories, making it an efficient choice for muscle recovery and growth. The product launched with four flavors including classics like Chocolate and Vanilla, plus innovative options like Blue Marshmallow and Boston Cream Donut. Basic Supplements even displays the protein-by-weight percentage right on the front of the tub (71-75%, varying by flavor) – a level of transparency rarely seen in the industry.

Basic Pre-Workout
Basic Supplements Basic Pre brings just what’s needed for focus, energy, and pumps, with 200mg caffeine and 3g citrulline per scoop — and it’s affordable with no tingles!
Basic PRE takes a refreshingly simple approach to pre-workout supplementation, focusing on four core ingredients that have stood the test of time. With 3 grams of L-citrulline for pumps, 1.5 grams of creatine monohydrate for strength and power, and 200 milligrams of caffeine for energy, the formula provides exactly what you need – nothing more, nothing less.
What makes this pre-workout unique is its synergistic combination of citrulline with L-arginine alpha-ketoglutarate, which research shows may enhance nitric oxide production better than either ingredient alone. The modest 200mg caffeine dose paired with 2mg of huperzine A provides clean, sustainable energy without overwhelming stimulation. It’s a formulation that proves sometimes less is more – especially when using properly-dosed, clinically-validated ingredients.

Basic Whey Isolate delivers pure, premium protein without any unnecessary extras, using Glanbia Nutritionals’ renowned Provon Whey Protein Isolate as its sole protein source. Each 31.6-gram serving provides 26 grams of protein with just 110 calories, 2 grams of carbohydrates, and minimal fat, making it an ideal choice for athletes who want precise control over their macronutrient intake.
While Basic Whey will bring better value and thicker flavor, Basic Isolate is great for those who are counting carbs or need to limit the lactose content as much as possible.
The formula keeps things simple with Glanbia’s cross-flow microfiltrated whey protein isolate (90% protein by weight), Basic Supplements isn’t holding back on flavor variety. Launching with traditional chocolate and vanilla options, they’ve expanded their lineup to include creative offerings like Salted Caramel Cold Brew and Peanut Butter Cookie, proving that “basic” doesn’t have to mean boring.
