We are committed to manufacturing our supplements under strict compliance with the Food and Drug Administration’s Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). The principal behind the GMP is to provide manufacturing guidelines that can offer peace of mind for consumers, that the supplements contain the ingredients and amounts displayed on the label.
The guidelines outlined by the FDA require supplement manufacturers to follow manufacturing processes, safety procedures, and packaging standards to ensure that dietary supplement labels are truthful and that actual dietary supplement contents match the contents on the Supplement Facts label and are not misleading – in any way.
Anirva even takes this to the next level with our full disclosure labels. Unlike most of our competition, we use no proprietary blends, and we disclose every ingredient in each formulation, along with the exact amount included in each pill.
There are many processes that we went through to adhere strictly to FDA guidelines, including the processes below.
