The Performance Advisory Board is a collective of world-leading professors, scientists, and elite athletes who are helping to shape the future of performance nutrition.

Whether it's refining a best-seller or creating something brand-new, you can count on what you’re putting in your body to be built on research. Science-backed supplements you can trust.

The Performance Advisory Board doesn’t offer personal consultations or advice.

Instead, their focus is on shaping Myprotein’s products so that they reflect the latest and greatest information in performance nutrition.

We don’t just look for credentials — we look for leaders. Every member of the Performance Advisory Board has been handpicked based on their contributions to sports science, health, and performance nutrition.

From researchers and lecturers to fitness professionals and health practitioners, each expert brings a unique perspective. Because when it comes to elite performance, only the best will do.

The goal of the Performance Advisory Board isn’t to formally approve every product. Instead, their input is central to the product development process.

Our experts provide industry-leading insight on formulation and ingredient selection, ensuring that our range is always evolving based on evidence and performance.
