Rho Nutrition
Rho Nutrition was founded on a simple principle: supplements should actually work. Co-founded by Ryan Bishop and George Padilla — both veterans of the supplement manufacturing industry — Rho was built to bring integrity to a space where quality is often sacrificed for profit. Every Rho formula starts with clean, clinically studied ingredients and delivers them through a next-generation liposomal delivery system, which wraps nutrients in tiny fat-based carriers that support absorption at the cellular level — the same bioavailability technology once available only through IV and injection.
Rho's product line includes NAD+, glutathione, curcumin, creatine, and more — all third-party tested, manufactured in an FDA-registered, GMP-certified facility in Colorado, and free from sugar, gluten, dairy, GMOs, soy, and artificial additives. Now available at Sprouts Farmers Market nationwide. (Discount Code: IAMHEARD)
