FROM SEED TO SOIL TO HARVEST
It all starts with organic , non-GMO seeds . The organic fruits , veggies and herbs used in mykind Organics , such as the Amla berries and the holy basil leaves , all begin as organic , non-GMO seeds planted in organic soil that is naturally rich in nitrogen , phosphorus , potassium and diverse probiotics and enzymes . Then , they ’ re fed organic compost and other organic fertilizers , and are never sprayed with toxic chemical pesticides or weed killers . All of this takes place on a unique farm in Southern India which employs local village women , paying fair wages while also supporting a best-in-class local village school .
Before long , it ’ s time to harvest these organic fruits , veggies and herbs . They are harvested — by hand — at their peak for maximum flavor and nutrition , and then transported from the farm to the factory within 30 minutes of harvest !
From there , the organic fruits , veggies and herbs are turned into a powder to make our mykind Organics line , with only fresh purified water used to extract their nutrients — an innovative process with multiple international patents associated with it .
During the whole process , best-in-class quality laboratories and Ph . D . -bearing scientists test everything — from fingerprinting the herbals in each blend to assaying the raw fruit for all of its nutrients to validating the multiple vitamins and minerals that come from each extracted and powdered blend .
That ’ s the whirlwind tour of the traceability of mykind Organics . In short , mykind Organics is food — food grown in rich soil , harvested by hand , and , while it ’ s still fresh and teeming with life , it ’ s made into powerful food powders that deliver almost
all of the vitamins and minerals we require every day . It ’ s farmed by people for people — and it ’ s not engineered by a corporation , synthesized by a lab or tableted with the latest , greatest and best-sticking glues .
BUT THERE ’ S EVEN MORE TO THE TRACEABILITY STORY .
Every batch is validated , and from the field to the powder , the organic farming is verified and certified — free of genetically modified organisms ( GMOs ) and toxic chemicals , such as fertilizers and pesticides .
From the powder to the manufacturer , the potencies are tested and guaranteed to meet the label claim . Likewise , the botanical sources are all confirmed by assays that are so precise that they show the part of the actual plant that is used . For example , not just lemons , but lemon peels .
Additionally , from the manufacturer to the tablet , the organic and non-GMO inputs and practices are certified again .
Then , the entire product is tested , verified and certified — USDA Organic , Non-GMO Project Verified , Vegan . org and Gluten Free Certified . Plus , the label claims are validated for Certificate of Analysis .
mykind Organics — traceable back to the seed — represents our commitment which is to deliver real , pure , kind , meaningful nutrition that is scientifically formulated , responsibly grown , third-party certified and innovative .
