Does anyone know if there is a problem about having supplements in your luggage? I am going leaving for on a business trip and do not want to have my supplements confiscated by airport security.

put a bag around each one in case they break, you dont want powder all over your clothes.Originally Posted by ctbeisJon@CelSales.com

No trouble at all. I travel with a medicine chest in my bag, both carry on and checked. No worries.

Never had a problem with powders/pills/bars in my luggage or carry-on. They're always in the original packaging.

you should be fine, i brought so many supps back from the Olympia this year, this is the exact quote from the carry on baggage inspector guy "what the f**k in this bag! I explained myself and he sent me on my way.

umm.. you aren't supposed to bring anything in a liquicap. Powders and pills *should* be ok if they are in their original containers.

When I flew back in May I took 4 tubs of GF-Pro with me and they all were "smashed" after I opened my luggage. Not smashed from something laying on them, just smashed because all of the air was sucked out of the container.
It didn't affect the protein at all, but just beaware that it may not be sealed back in the luggage area. As for pills, I didn't even try. I was on vacation, all I needed was Protein.

Thanks to everybody that replied. I did not even think of the fish oil being a liquidcap. To be safe, I will place it in my checked luggage.
