Quality & Safety

Our herbal company, NuHerbs, goes to great lengths to ensure only the highest quality herbs are used in their formulas. A series of tests is used on every batch of herbs that is associated with the lot number on each bottle. The variety of testing methods measure potency by substantiating the presence of active ingredients. In addition, Nu Herbs performs independent tests for heavy metals (lead, mercury, and arsenic) while routinely screening for microbacteria (E. coli, salmonella, and various other possible bio-contaminants such as molds and yeasts) on all its products. Tests are further performed for regulatory compliance regarding possible known dangers such as aristolochic acid and ephedrine alkaloids.

Furthermore, the Import-Export Bureau of China randomly tests NuHerbs’ Herbal Times® remedies for heavy metals and microbacteria.
