More than what is required, more than what exists, our standard is much MORE than standard.

Our Translational Research Laboratory evaluates how our ingredients work at the cellular level. The team of cellular and molecular biologists assess the bioactivity of our raw materials by evaluating changes in biomarkers.

We source raw materials from only well-vetted and approved suppliers. As materials arrive to our facility, we inspect every aspect of the delivery—the sanitary condition of the delivery truck—the condition of shipping container, and the accuracy of the materials inside. We are making every effort to ensure that our ingredients are safe and effective.

Incoming raw materials are inspected and sampled by our quality control team. The materials undergo analytical chemistry testing that confirms the identity, purity, and other specifications of the ingredients, as well as microbiology testing that verifies the materials meet our predetermined microbial specifications. The data is analyzed, recorded and then validated by a fellow chemist. The batch of specific raw material then receives a Certificate of Analysis, critical for its release to the next step: production.

Before the materials even enter the production space, our team has thoroughly cleaned the equipment and sanitized the room, affectionately dubbed “the bubble,” where manufacturing and packaging occurs. Production of a new batch will not begin until the cleanliness of the space and the equipment are verified by our Quality Assurance Team. Inside “the bubble,” operators are properly gowned to help safeguard our products from contamination.

Once production begins we are ensuring quality through each step of the manufacturing process. Our Quality Assurance Team confirms that each batch begins with the proper blend lot, our recipe! Once production begins, we confirm that only approved materials are used, and perform checks for product weight, hardness and other parameters every thirty minutes. These checks are documented, verified and reviewed by another operator and our quality assurance generalists.

Our packaging lines are cleaned and verified by Quality Assurance. The labels are inspected for accuracy before application begins; it is important that the product you receive is exactly what the label says it is. Each and every bottle is checked by hand to ensure that labels are applied correctly, and that lot numbers and expiration dates are accurate and clearly visible.
