Certifications Check 2023


You need these 5 Certifications to ensure the authenticity and quality of your supplements

 

“Of all the forms of inequality, injustice in health is the most shocking and inhumane.”
- Martin Luther King, Jr. 

 

Adulteration in food and health supplements is a persistent concern in India, posing significant risks to public health.
Unscrupulous practices such as mixing substandard or harmful substances with food products and supplements to cut costs or enhance appearance are prevalent. This not only compromises the nutritional value of the products but also poses serious health hazards, ranging from digestive issues to more severe illnesses.

More than 40,000 cases were filed in 2022-23 against samples of unsafe protein powders and dietary supplements sold in the market that did not meet the food safety standards, according to the Union Health Ministry

How can you ensure that you do not fall prey to such products?
It is often challenging to distinguish between genuine and adulterated products, but there are certain certifications that you can check for to ensure a superior quality supplement
