ITI is one of only a select few dietary supplement manufacturers that are in full compliance with GMPs that have already been established for drug manufacturing facilities. Currently these standards are much more complex and rigorous than those expected for dietary supplement manufacturers.

ITI conducts more than 35,000 tests on its products every year. The laboratory staff is extremely knowledgeable regarding analytical methodology for botanicals and other nutrients. They have published research papers in respected peer-reviewed journals.

ITI monitors and tests ingredients at various points during the manufacturing process. Before any raw material is processed, it must pass through a "quarantine" period. As part of this inspection process, ITI scientists use a variety of test methods, including High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AA), and other chromatographic techniques, along with microbiological analysis, to ensure the purity of every ingredient. Lab analysis confirms ITI is using the correct plant and getting the right quality and quantity of chemical constituents. These analyses makes certain that bacteria have not contaminated the raw materials. Raw materials are also examined for contamination with pesticides or other toxins.

Process validation studies ensure that the written process approved for each product performs consistently from batch to batch. Cleaning validation studies ensure that no residues from products, harmful microbes, or cleaning/sanitizing products remain on the equipment. ITI’s cleaning validation program was modeled after the standards maintained in drug manufacturing facilities.

ITI products include ingredients derived from a variety of extraction processes, including hot water extraction, alcohol extraction and super critical CO2 extraction, to name a few. We at no time accept any raw material extracted with solvents that have shown adverse health effects.

Global Responsibility
Beyond using raw materials that are organic, grown without pesticides/herbicides, and are GMO-free for health standards, is the issue of sustainability for the health of the planet. Merely selecting materials that are free of chemical contamination is not necessarily supporting the wise use of the planet’s resources. Sometimes there is an overlap and sometimes, unfortunately, there is not.

ITI purchases raw materials from reliable vendors who accurately monitor and report how those materials are derived. ITI does vendor spot-checks to make sure the information with which ITI is supplied is factual. ITI is cautious in use of raw materials that are from ecologically sensitive species, be they animal or plant.

Organizational Support
ITI supports the American Botanical Council (ABC), including providing financial support, assistance with technical information for the development of botanical monographs and safety standards. There are other organizations we support with our membership as well. The partial list includes:
