The 4 Key Steps Behind a Quality Supplement
Jamieson has over 360 steps involved in creating a quality supplement that can be summarized into 4 areas:
- Formulation
- Ingredient sourcing
- Manufacturing processes
- Testing standards
1. Science-Backed Supplement Formulation
How Jamieson Formulates Quality Supplements
To help ensure you get supplements you can trust, we bring together the expertise of our Scientific Advisory Board—leaders in science and technology—along with our in-house research and innovation team.
Together, they combine evidence, insights, and industry knowledge to formulate high-quality, naturally sourced vitamins, minerals, and supplements.
2. Raw Ingredient Sourcing and Traceability
How Jamieson Verifies Ingredient Quality
To ensure you can trust that what’s on the label is what’s in the bottle, we use the latest technology to track and trace the raw, natural ingredients that go into our formulas.
We also hold our raw material suppliers to the same high standards, monitoring all raw materials by date, location, and batch.
Advanced DNA and HPTLC Testing for Herbals and Probiotics
For probiotics and herbals, our in-depth DNA testing and High Performance Thin Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) program is carried out on every lot, at every stage of production to confirm potency and presence of all ingredients.
What is HPTLC Testing?
HPTLC is an advanced testing method that allows us to:
- Recognize specific plant parts & probiotic strains
- Identify potential contaminants
- Test against different parts of the same plant
- Ensure purity, correct potency, & active medicinal properties
This ensures the effectiveness of all ingredients and final products until their expiry.
