WE HAVE THE ASSURANCE OF INDEPENDENT,
UNBIASED, THIRD-PARTY CERTIFICATION.
For a product to carry the Certified USDA Organic and Non-GMO
Project Verified seals, every ingredient in that product must be
traced back to its origin. Third-party certification and verification
takes the guesswork out of the buying equation. It provides an
objective stamp for you to be assured that your foods are clean.

Our best-in-class quality systems require that our products are:
• safely manufactured by third-party audited and certified
facilities that meet or exceed all U.S. Food and Drug
Administration Current Good Manufacturing Practice
regulations.
• tested to be safe in regulated third-party labs and by
independent testing agencies such as ConsumerLabs.com.
• third-party certified by world-recognized bodies including:

USDA ORGANIC—NO SEAL = NO DEAL.
There’s only one way to know
if a product is truly organic:
verification by an independent
third party to meet the USDA’s
rigorous requirements for organic.
The USDA Organic seal confirms
that all of the ingredients in the
product come from organic farms
from seeds that are not
genetically modified.

• USDA ORGANIC.
• NON-GMO PROJECT VERIFIED.

Look for the certified USDA Organic seal on the package.
No seal? Then it’s not USDA Organic. No matter what “they” say.

Our proteins also are certified free of banned substances
by Informed-Choice.

NON-GMO PROJECT VERIFIED

SHOW ME. DON’T TELL ME.

While organic farming
ensures that the seeds used
are not genetically modified,
verification that a product
Project
is non-GMO by a worldclass, independent third
nongmoproject.org
party such as the Non-GMO
Project says something
even more. It says that your entire formula, supply chain and
manufacturing process was reviewed and verified non-GMO.

When you buy your produce at the market, you trust your eyes,
your sense of smell and your experience to know that they are
good. For example, the sign says “Organic Tomatoes,” so you
pick one up, trusting it is a tomato (and not an imposter) and
you look for perfection: the ripe red color, the firm but flexible
flesh, no blemishes or soft spots. You won’t know how it tastes
until you get it home and cut it. But your experience tells you
that it is a tomato, and it should be okay for your recipe. You are
using age-old methods for testing your ingredients, and by and
large, they have worked for you over the years.

WE APPLY RIGOROUS QUALITY STANDARDS—
FROM THE SEED TO THE BOTTLE.
The foundation on which we build our supply chain is
traceability. Our goal is to verify the history of all of our
ingredients—where they are grown and who grows them.
As the LEADING SUPPLEMENT BRAND in the Natural
Products Industry, we have a full-time Quality Assurance and
Control Department dedicated to ensuring all appropriate
quality practices are met or exceeded.

We test, too. We perform the obvious tests (just like you do with the
tomato). These are called organoleptic tests. But, we do so much
more to validate that every ingredient \
