How do our claims come about?
We follow the official EU list
Approved claims we use exactly as the European Food Safety Authority allows them: no exaggeration, no spin of our own.
Claims under assessment we mark honestly
Only when based on serious research, and always clearly marked with an asterisk (*).
We check ourselves
Departing from this way of working is not an option. Clarity is our number one.
Why this is not optional
Health claims on supplements are strictly regulated. A brand that promises something that is not on the official EU list breaks the law, and that does not go without consequences. Food authorities such as the Dutch NVWA can impose warnings, penalty payments and fines that run into the tens of thousands of euros.
Many brands knowingly walk that line. We do not. Rather one claim fewer than a promise we cannot substantiate. Because your trust is worth more than a prettier label.
