Doesn't change anything if Jones didn't mention the tainted supplements in his AC/USADA forms. It's just like the dick pills or whatever they found last time, it's worthless if you can't prove that you actually ingested them.
no. for further answers, follow the rabbit hole below.Anyone know if USADA has a list of approved supplements/brands/products?

It's the opposite, they have a list of risky supplements. I guess it would be extremely expensive to test everything and act as a FDA surrogate, when athletes could simply use common sense and not buy suspicious shit.
I'm curious about this as well.Doesn’t the UFC UDADA deal allow for fighters to send in their supplements to be tested for them without charge?

This page https://www.usada.org/can-i-have-usada-evaluate-my-supplements-as-free-from-prohibited-substances/ does specifically say that USADA doesn't endorse anything and recommends 3rd party testing. in 90 or so seconds of google searching i was unable to confirm that USADA will test for UFC fighters.
maybe UFC hires a 3rd party to test?
there are various bodies.
informed-choice do trhird party testing and in fact the official UFC supplement company "performance inspired" (which is financially backed by WME) havbe all of their supplements verified by informed-choice
USADA's official line is dont take supplements,although they are softening somewhat and have recently said "if you must take supplements use informed-choice or other third party tested supplements"
and my guess is that Informed Choice tested supplements cost double to triple. which is tough if you're making $8k/$8k, but still takes away the guesswork. thanks (again!) @dimspace.
lol nice.nah, not at all .
but they test positive and say "oh it was tainted creatine", no it wasnt fucking creatine, it was a product called TESTOBOOST or some shit.
