|  Proven Quality is our mission, Clinical Effectiveness is our goal
Vital Nutrients quality assurance and manufacturing practices are far superior to other nutritional supplement
manufacturers. You can trust and count on Vital Nutrients quality assurance, not because we say so, but because
we prove to you what we do.
We are one of only a few professional natural product manufacturing companies in the world that have been audited
and certified for Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) by both the NNFA (National Nutritional Foods Association)
and the NSF. Our facilities are audited by these independent outside agencies to third party certify and prove
our compliance with GMP guidelines and quality assurance practices. These two organizations are leaders in
natural product manufacturing quality assurance certification in North America.
Vital Nutrients meets or in many cases exceeds the proposed FDA cGMP’s (Current Good Manufacturing Practice
Guidelines for nutritional supplements). cGMP’s cover identity, authenticity and potency testing of raw materials
and finished products, quarantine/release procedures, employee training, cleanliness of the facility, documentation,
as well as many other areas. We follow detailed written standard operating procedures (SOP’s) to ensure consistency
and safety in every aspect of our manufacturing process.
Vital Nutrients uses the highest standards for Quality Assurance. This is why we are the industry leader. The Quality
Verification section is a brief description of our leading edge quality assurance program.
Quality Assurance and Quality Control are the number one priority at Vital Nutrients.
While all natural product companies claim to have the best quality, almost none are completing all the steps
required to comprehensively insure that quality and purity are consistently produced time after time. At Vital
Nutrients, no corners are cut when it comes to quality assurance. We provide comprehensive proof and fully
guarantee that our products are prepared utilizing the highest standards of manufacturing practice and laboratory
quality assurance. Laboratory quality assurance is not easy to attain. We audit and verify each of our independent
laboratories to insure that validated analytical methods and ethical lab practices for raw material and finished
product testing are followed.
We spend a great deal of time researching the scientific validity and reliability of
laboratory test methods. In addition, we insist that our labs use only highly purified analytical reference standards.
As a result of our efforts, we have often found that many laboratories are not using proper reference standards and
scientifically valid testing methods. We reject the use of these laboratories for testing of Vital Nutrients
products. We will be happy to provide you with a more detailed explanation of laboratory policies and procedures
if you have an interest in learning more.
Our Goal is Maximum Clinical Effectiveness through Proven Quality!
We have assembled a team of qualified health professionals to assist us in our formulation of products. All
Vital Nutrients products are developed using bona fide research. In most cases, the research used consists of
published human and/or animal-based studies. Our team of health professionals works diligently to ensure that
the raw materials chosen for our formulations work synergistically to produce the best clinical outcome. We
make certain that our products contain true therapeutic doses and are made with the most beneficial active
materials. Vital Nutrients formulations are made with the ultimate goal of helping people increase their health,
well-being and vitality, while easing discomfort and distress. We take this goal very seriously, knowing that
excellent raw material and finished product quality assurance are the primary keys to producing consistent
clinical benefit and value.
