Quality and control

Verifiable, not persuasive

This is what we require from every supplier and every batch. It is not marketing copy — it is the condition without which a raw material does not enter the formulation.

Documentation per raw material

Full Latin name: With species author. A plant name alone is not a specification.
Plant part: Root, bark, leaf and seed are not interchangeable and do not share a profile.
Extraction ratio (DER): Without it, a stated milligram figure carries no meaning.
Extraction solvent and carriers: They affect regulatory status and the extract profile.
Standardisation marker and method: The basis of quality control between batches.
Certificate of analysis (CoA): For the specific batch — identity and marker content.
Contaminants: Heavy metals, pesticides, mycotoxins — the safety minimum.
Microbiology and residual solvents: The safety minimum.
Bulk and tapped density: Determines whether the chosen format is feasible at all.
Stability data: Determines shelf life and packaging requirements.
Novel Food assessment basis: Assessed at the level of the specific extract and process, not merely the plant name.

Finished product control

Screening for pharmacological substances

Targeted LC-MS/MS screening of the finished product for sildenafil, tadalafil, vardenafil and their analogues. In a category where undeclared PDE-5 inhibitors are a documented problem, this is non-negotiable — for customer safety and for our own liability.

Measuring the actual dose

A pilot batch and analytical measurement of the actual dose per unit. What is on the label must be in the product — confirmed by measurement, not calculated from the recipe.

Manufacturing standard

Production in a facility with an established food safety system. A qualified pharmacist or toxicologist reviews the final formulation and warnings before the product goes to market.

Regulatory discipline

The product is placed on the market and labelled as a food supplement — never as a medicinal product and never by comparison to one.
Only authorised health claims are used, and only where the product meets the prescribed conditions of use for that claim.
The safety dossier covers potential interactions — with nitrates, antihypertensives, anticoagulants and antiplatelet therapy, antidiabetics, antidepressants and medicines for erectile dysfunction.
Croatian-language labelling and mandatory warnings are designed into the packaging layout from the start, not added at the end.

Important. If you take any medication, have a chronic condition or are undergoing treatment, consult a pharmacist or doctor before taking any food supplement. A food supplement is not a substitute for medical treatment.
