How do you travel with supplements?

[Dr. Octoclops]

I have a business trip coming up, but the hotel I'll be in has a pretty decent gym. So I'd like to bring some supplements with me...right now using NO-Xplode, Cellmass, ON 100% Whey. I need to bring enough for about 3 days.
I'm sure that some of you bring your supplements along with you when travelling....
Do you ever have trouble in the airports?
How do you pack them?

Any help/opinions are much appreciated. Thanks.

I just take what I need for how long I go. The powders might get searched and/or seized but I havent had any trouble yet.

[Blap Blaow]

If I'm travelling for a short period I either; let my supplements go to ****, or carry as much as I can in pill form.

Last time I went away I filled up a shaker bottle with whey powder, carried a bag of oats, a jar of peanut butter and an empty shaker bottle and was set.

[Dr. Octoclops]

You think that if I store these in plastic bags and tupperware I'll be alright? I'd prefer not to get arrested at the airport in front of my co-workers....

[redvision]

I highly suggest you putting 1 teaspoon of creating in small ziploc bags (you know, the 5g ones...), the put all those small bags in your pocket...

I think it's the only way to be 100% safe

There was a thread awhile back about this, give it a search.

Long story short: You have nothing to worry about, if worse came to worse they'd do a quick field test and it would show up negative.

I travel internationally quite a bit, and have gotten supplements airports with no problems. Now, granted, an international flight will place one under more scrutiny, but I always felt it prudent to simply bring the container of whatever I wanted to bring with me. The extra weight didn't matter to me when I thought of all the extra hassles miscellaneous powders in baggies could potentially ramify into if I was searched. That, and the likely confiscation of whatever I had brought with me. I'd recommend you just bring the containers.

LMAO

When I travel I just bring a few MRP's and a handfull of pills that I put in Tylenol bottle.

Great question. I can take points for my upcoming trip.

Anyone have any trouble taking supplements abroad? (outside canada/usa)
If they do search and happen to find the supplements, how do you explain what it is and what it is used for? I can't picture doing that. The guy would probably think I'm challenging his intelligence and get me into more ****. And by supplements, by most, I mean Sesamin, PowerFULL, whey etc. Did anyone have to deal with this? How did you do it and what was the outcome?

[wdodd]

This last summer i went on a safari to south africa and namibia, i brought along animal pak, whey, and a CEE power in a zip lock without any problems.

[young_squatter]

I only take what I really need with me or as much as I can.

[davedepezio]

I would just worry about the protien and for get everything else.

[D-Railed]

You have nothing to worry about if your flight is within the US or Canada. Whereever you are from. I travel quite a bit for business and take a lot of supps with me, including Nolva, SD, CEE, Whey. And I have been searched by security. As long as you have them in the original container you are fine. Just tell them briefly what it is. Good Luck.

[thepopo]

Bro nothing to worry about. I've even brought research chems while traveling (not reccommended since there is a risk) with no problems.

I've never been stopped, searched, etc. for supplements or anything.. They go through without a hassle. I normally travel with them in ziplocs, it works fine.

As a side note.. D-railed, you're carrying nolva in the original packaging?

OMG! I'm dying of laughter over here!

[JustinKim943]

i've once had....

Primaforce CEE bottle
Red Acid
Green Bulge
Xceed
Xtend
Whey Protein
Pantothetic acid
Animal Pak

all in my bag(yes, half of the things in my bag were clothes and the other half were supplements)

they didn't even search my bag.

[Da CaVeman]

I usually try to estimate what I need and bring a lil more than that amount. Get some tupper wear from the local dollar store and put them in there...airport security is not a problem...

[Dr. Octoclops]

Thanks for all the helpful input. I had no idea I'd be able to use ziplocs and tupperware without having problems.

Gonna bring 3 days worth of my NO-Xplode, Cellmass, and Whey.

[Big_Spaz]

This thread is perfect timing for me as well. I'm traveling from PA to Florida here in a few weeks to spend a week at Disney.

I figure I'll just let my supplements slide for a week. I'm going with my wife's family and I don't want to be poppin' pills the entire time, so I'm taking 2 - 2lb. containers of I-Pro and one bottle of Sesamin with me. That's it.

Just mail them to your hotel or wherever you are staying. Put like "Books" or somehting on the customs forms. Better to get seized that way than on your person. Plus, prolly has a better chance of getting through.

[Mr. Aries]

i took a trip to china for a month last year, and took a ****load of supplements with me on the plane.. They opened the suitcase in front of me as a random search, and didn't care about the supplements at all.. I brought all the original bottles..

[Flex500]

yeah it is not a problem traveling with it at all. I usually put all my supplements in the back I am checking in. I just put the whole damn bottle right in there (unless it is too big then I use ziplock bags) I have done this for years and have never had any problem.

[hippy1]

Really I would worry about flying with bags and bags of white powder.

[lucky769]

Pill form and RTD's.....

[ripped_model]

Yeah RTD's are your friend while your flying.

[JustinKim943]

RTD's suck, just do a search on them on this forum, theres an article explaining it.

Trust me, if u are traveling inside USA, nothing will happen. i seriuosly had like 7 bottles of supplements when i flew to chicago. I also controlled lab's RED ACID™. They didn't even check dat. i mean, come on, its called red acid™!

[DejaBlue55]

No problems dude.s

[D-Railed]

As a side note.. D-railed, you're carrying nolva in the original packaging?

Yeah man. It's from IBE and I took it in the little bottle with a dropper. Now granted the time I took the nolva and other PCT supps with me was not the time I got 'randomly' searched.

[Da CaVeman]

if ur gonna be be packing white powders in ziplock bags, i would suggest u double bag just in case and send it off with ur luggage. I've always done this and haven't ran into any problems yet...Last time I traveled from pa to ca, I had an entire duffel bag full of supplements

[Sockomalo]

why dont you put it in your luggage? they only check your baggage you bring onto the plane
