Focus on Quality

The United States Pharmacopeia (USP) is a nonprofit scientific organization dedicated to defining federally recognized public standards of quality for medicines, dietary supplements, and foods. Since its inception in 1820, USP has played a pivotal role in setting these standards. Presently, manufacturers and regulators in over 140 countries rely on USP standards. While some entities may offer testing and quality seals, it’s essential to note that USP stands out as the sole standards-setting organization acknowledged in U.S. federal law, providing unparalleled third-party verification.

For a decade, California Nutrition has maintained an unwavering commitment to USP quality. We prioritize every aspect of our operations, from meticulous ingredient sourcing to implementing industry-leading manufacturing practices and conducting rigorous testing. We firmly believe it is our responsibility to lead the way in delivering exceptional products and ensuring a superior consumer experience. Our dedication to quality is a cornerstone of our brand, and we continuously strive to exceed expectations in every aspect of our business.
