The Facts Panel.

Formatting matters. Hairlines must be 1/4 point. Type sizes are mandated. “Serving Size” logic is complex. We generate a pixel-perfect template ready for your designer.

New Dietary Ingredients.

Is your star ingredient an “Old Dietary Ingredient” (ODI) or a “New” one (NDI)? If it's an NDI, you must notify the FDA 75 days before marketing. We check the status.

DSHEA

Structure vs. Disease.

You can say “Supports joint health” (Structure/Function). You CANNOT say “Cures arthritis” (Disease Claim). We line-edit your packaging to keep you in the safe zone.

Weight Listing

Proprietary Blends.

You don't have to list amounts for each ingredient in a blend, but you MUST list them in descending order of predominance by weight. We verify your formula logic.

FALCPA & FASTER

Undeclared Allergens.

The #1 cause of recalls. We check your source ingredients (e.g., Whey, Glucosamine) to ensure all major allergens (including Sesame) are properly declared.

Heavy Metal Limits.

California Prop 65 limits for Lead, Cadmium, and Arsenic are strict. We check your COA (Certificate of Analysis) against these thresholds to see if a warning is required.

Liability

Mandatory Warnings.

Iron supplements need a fatal poisoning warning. St. John's Wort needs interaction warnings. We ensure your label protects your customers and your company.

Iron-Containing Products
“WARNING: Accidental overdose of iron-containing products is a leading cause of fatal poisoning in children under 6. Keep this product out of reach of children.”
Specific Botanicals (e.g. St. John's Wort)
May interact with antidepressants or birth control. Warning statement required for liability protection.
21 CFR 111
cGMP Standard
PRO-V
Master Record

Label specs must match the Master Manufacturing Record (MMR) exactly.

21 CFR 111

Manufactured Correctly.

Your label must accurately reflect the Master Manufacturing Record (MMR). We verify that your finished product specs match your label claims to ensure cGMP compliance.

Reporting Pipeline

Adverse Event Contact.

Just like MoCRA, supplement labels MUST list a domestic address or phone number for consumers to report serious adverse events. Missing this is an immediate misbranding violation.

FTC & CBP

Made in USA?

The “Made in USA” standard is incredibly strict (all or virtually all). If you use imported Vitamin C, you likely need a qualified claim like “Made in USA with global ingredients.”

USDA NOP

Organic Claims.

Using the USDA Organic seal requires 95%+ organic ingredients AND certification. “Made with Organic” has different rules. We prevent unauthorized seal usage.

Amazon Approval.

To sell supplements on Amazon, you need a Certificate of Analysis (CoA) from an ISO 17025 lab and strict label compliance. We prepare your package for Seller Central approval.

Beverage Rule

Drink or Supplement?

Liquid products are tricky. If it looks like a beverage (canned energy drink), FDA may regulate it as conventional food (Nutrition Facts), not a supplement.

Cannot be represented as a meal replacement or conventional food.

FDA EXCLUSION RULE

CBD is NOT a Dietary Supplement
FD&C Act § 201(ff)(3)(B): If an article is approved as a drug (Epidiolex) or studied publicly before being marketed as a supplement, it is excluded from the definition of a dietary supplement.
Exclusion Rule

The CBD Problem.

FDA maintains that CBD cannot be sold as a dietary supplement because it was studied as a drug first. We help you navigate the risk landscape for hemp-derived products.

Live Cultures

Probiotic Labeling.

Probiotics must be labeled in Colony Forming Units (CFUs), not milligrams. And the count must be valid through the end of shelf life, not just at time of manufacture.

Stability

Shelf Life Data.

You don't legally need an expiration date, but if you use one, you MUST have stability data to back it up. We review your testing protocols.

30-Day Notice

Claim Notification.

If you make a structure/function claim, you must notify the FDA within 30 days of marketing the product. We handle this submission for you.
