Hey everyone, I've never actually posted in this sub. However, I saw a new research study today that I wanted to bring up. It highlights why my main mission over the past 10 years has been to not only advance the lab testing and quality control standards of the industry, but also to educate consumers on what to look out for, and how things work in the background. We are all ingesting these products! We are putting them into our bodies, so it's crucial that companies selling them do everything necessary to ensure they are what they claim to be, and are pure and free from contaminants. That is unfortunately the vast exception to the rule. Some of you may or may not remember my post about turkesterone results from last year.
That whole situation blew way up, and every jabroni on YouTube was making videos about it. Some were saying I was a liar and fraud, and just trying to sell products. Some were saying I was in for massive lawsuits. Most were just doing it to get their 5 minute…
What they were answering

Damn, that’s crazy. I’m going to look at getting my supplement tested at your lab when we launch. Don’t want to join the swamp

You have to build your company around the quality system, not the other way around. Paying for good lab testing is only part of it. The real costs come from having to reject things all the time, and trying to plan production runs around the possibility that something might fail. That, or you just accept you will go out of stock sometimes. You also have to be prepared to lose money if things go wrong. It's tough, because this is life. Things go wrong all the time. If my production guys rush through a run because we are running low, and my lab tests the batch and it comes in below spec, then we scrap it and start over. Not many companies do that. Most would rather not test at all, because then they don't have to make those difficult decisions at all. Just YOLO it and hope for the best. You have to build lab testing and quality control as a pillar of the company. People are putting these things into their bodies. This shit matters!
