All Lissa Health products undergo rigorous in-process and pre-release testing. We also insist on third-party quality assurance and regular stability studies. These tests are conducted by a laboratory audited by both Health Canada and the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
We test for total aerobic microbial counts, yeast and mould. We test for Staphylococcus aureus, E. coli, and Salmonella.
We test for heavy metals such as arsenic, cadmium, lead and mercury.
We test capsule disintegration to ensure the capsule contents are available for absorption within the prescribed time limits.
We test capsule weight and weight variation (fill + empty capsule) to ensure that the right amount of gelatin is present in each capsule.
We conduct assays to ensure that the active ingredients in our capsules are within label claim.
