USANA doesn’t settle for anything less than the best. Our supplements are held to the highest possible quality standards at every step in the manufacturing process. Our research and development team is always improving our products to make sure we stay on the cutting edge.
But we can tell you all day long how great USANA is—and it would be true—but it wouldn’t mean much without third-party verification. Luckily, loads of well-respected institutions have tested our standards, facilities, and our products, and found us more than satisfactory.
Third-Party Verification
USANA obtains third-party verification through ConsumerLab.com®. USANA products currently approved through ConsumerLab.com include: USANA® Essentials™, Visionex®, USANA® Probiotic, CoQuinone® 30, Procosa®, and BiOmega™.
USANA’s manufacturing facility is GMP certified by NSF International—an independent, nonprofit organization that certifies products to help protect consumers.
NSF has certified USANA to be in compliance with Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) for dietary supplements. NSF International is an independent, not-for-profit organization that helps protect public health by writing standards for food, water, air, and consumer goods; testing and certifying products based on those standards, inspecting for GMP, and providing ongoing monitoring.
USANA products also use trusted U.S. Pharmacopeial (USP) testing methods to help ensure they adhere to USANA’s standards for how tablets will break down in the body (disintegration) and also ensure that you get the amounts listed on the label (potency).
USANA’s manufacturing facilities have always been of the highest quality, but in 2011, we made it official: USANA became an FDA-registered facility. This means that not only are all of our products produced with the highest standards, we are also authorized to manufacture over-the-counter (OTC) products.
And if you compare USANA to the competition, you won’t be disappointed. The NutriSearch Comparative Guide to Nutritional Supplements™† compares hundreds of supplements to determine the highest quality, and USANA has earned the Editors’ Choice Award and 5-Star, Gold Medal rating for the USANA Essentials and HealthPak™.
Team USANA
If that wasn’t enough evidence for you, consider this: 700+ world-class athletes—including the Women’s Tennis Association (WTA) and the U.S. Ski and Snowboarding Association (USSA)—trust USANA’s products. Because they know what’s listed on the label is actually what’s in the bottle.
What is the USANA Potency Guarantee?
The potency guarantee means a lot to us here at USANA.
You will find Dr. Wentz’ signature on each and every one of the USANA®Nutritionals as part of the USANA potency guarantee. This guarantee is our promise to you that every nutritional supplement you order has been held to the highest quality standards in our manufacturing facilities and research labs. This means you can count on five attributes of potency:
Purity—Free from impurities or contamination
Identity—Ingredients in the product are verifiably the ingredients on the label
Composition—Contains exactly what it is supposed to contain, in exactly the right proportions
Strength—Offers the proper concentration of ingredients
Quality—Meets all specified expectations
My own personal testimony is:
When I started taking the supplementation called, Essentials, I noticed my sleep pattern had improved so much. Which obviously gave me more energy the next day.
I am so thankful I found these and wanted to share this information with you. If you know someone who could benefit from these, please share this with them.
Make a difference to better health & happiness!
