Why Dietary Supplement Testing Matters
Dietary supplements are regulated under the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA) and must comply with Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMPs) as outlined by the FDA. Rigorous testing ensures your products are:
Safe for consumption
Free of microbial and chemical contaminants
Accurately labeled
Compliant with domestic and international regulations
Without reliable lab testing, supplement brands risk product recalls, import refusals, and consumer mistrust. Our lab helps mitigate those risks with fast, dependable testing services.
