WE CARE ABOUT
Purity
We care about the quality, purity, and efficacy of our products. Earning your trust means going above and beyond every day with every product.
Where It Starts
-
We get it. You need to know that your vitamins and supplements are safe and pure. We feel the same way. After all, we take these products, too. That’s why we are committed to meeting and often exceeding international quality requirements. But we don’t stop there.
-
We also insist on holding ourselves to strict pharmaceutical standards. Where no pharmacopeial standard exists, we use other recognized standards such as those developed by the Council for Responsible Nutrition, or the World Health Organization. You can count on us to always go the extra mile when it comes to your health.

Therefore, it is only natural that our approach to product safety and quality starts with farmers and suppliers, and continues up the entire supply chainAll ingredients are extensively tested before they are accepted for use in our products. We insist on verifying the identity, potency, and purity of each ingredient listed on our product labels.
Clean Manufacturing

In-House Testing
We are obsessive about testing. We use powerful analytical methods, advanced analytical tools, the latest detection technologies, and explore novel digital tools to help drive our quality control and assurance programs.While the industry average is only one or two rounds of internal testing, our in-house laboratories enable us to conduct four rounds of testing! When it comes to your safety, we leave nothing to chance.
