🌿 Are your dietary supplements at risk of a Prop 65 violation?

With California’s strict Proposition 65 regulations, heavy metal contamination is a major concern for the dietary supplement industry.

In our latest blog, we break down:
⚠️ The hidden risks of heavy metal contamination in botanical ingredients
📉 Strategies to mitigate adulteration within your supply chain
✅ Why comprehensive testing is crucial to avoid costly legal action and protect your brand's reputation

The era of "self-affirmed" GRAS is coming to an end. Is your ingredient portfolio ready?

The FDA published a proposed rule that will make GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) notifications mandatory. This major regulatory shift means companies will no longer be able to rely on voluntary, undisclosed GRAS conclusions to bring ingredients to market. Under the new framework, uses of food substances that bypass mandatory notification will be presumed non-GRAS by the FDA—effectively treating them as unapproved food additives.

Don't wait for the final rule to scramble. Let’s secure your product's compliance today.

Is generic lab testing putting your dietary supplement brand at risk? 🛡️

Not all lab testing is created equal. Low-cost, superficial 'pass/fail' testing shortcuts might seem convenient upfront, but they leave your brand severely vulnerable.

At SupplySide Global 2026, we’re showcasing how Uncompromising Accuracy and scientifically sound methods (like UPLC) protect your products and brand reputation. Don't settle for risky shortcuts when compliance and consumer safety are on the line.

Settling for "pass-at-all-costs" shortcuts leaves your brand severely vulnerable to compliance friction, unexpected listing delays, and high-risk litigation.

Don't wait for a compliance hurdle or product recall to re-evaluate your testing strategy.
