How do you choose a testing method?
Recently, news
about dietary supplements being pulled from the shelves of New York chain stores,
has left supplement users questioning product safety and quality. And while there are many quality
manufacturers and ingredient suppliers, it’s imperative that solid testing
procedures are in place for every product.
Are you testing your nutritional ingredients and dietary
supplement products?
Testing is required under the Code of Federal
Regulations. CFR, 111.75(c)(1) states,
“you must select one or more established
specifications for identity, purity, strength, composition” then CFR 111.75
(2) states, “you must conduct appropriate tests or examinations to determine
compliance with the specifications selected.”

How do you
choose a testing method?
There are
many reliable and validated testing methods to choose from. Organizations like
the USP, FCC, AOAC, as well as many peer-reviewed journals have published
validated methods for testing ingredients and nutritional products.
Selecting a
validated or peer-review method is extremely important. When purchasing an
ingredient, it is critical to ask the supplier what method they used to identify,
assay, or qualify their ingredient. Additionally, this will also provide
information about the ingredient and how the supply has been verified.
Testing will
prove the quality and purity of the ingredient and finished products. Working
together, we can keep quality products on the store shelves!
