Most powders should be stored below 25°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Bathrooms, car boots and gym bags are the three worst options.
Clumping is typically moisture absorption. It affects texture rather than safety, but persistent damp exposure can shorten shelf life.
Keep the desiccant sachet in the tub, reseal firmly after each use, and use a dry scoop.
Liquid products such as carnitine shots often require refrigeration after opening — check the label for a post-opening use-by period.
Observe the expiry date printed on the container and do not use a product that has changed noticeably in colour, smell or texture.
