Product TrustScore®: The Vital Nutrients Commitment to Quality & Transparency

Have you noticed something special on Vital Nutrients product pages? As part of our commitment to quality and transparency, we feature Product TrustScore badges for many of our products.

TrustScore is a clear and unbiased way to measure the quality of our supplements from SuppCo, an unpaid, independent third-party company. SuppCo's proprietary rating system scores products on a 10-point scale based on their ability to deliver against 30+ key quality attributes.

What Determines a TrustScore?

According to SuppCo, its team meticulously examines every product by the following criteria:

  • Manufacturing standards to ensure that a dietary supplement meets brand specifications and adheres to federal safety and quality regulations
  • Third-party product certifications to verify that a product meets a stringent and standardized set of clean, nontoxic requirements based on independent testing and evaluation of its ingredients
  • Product quality indicators, which highlight areas where a supplement's ingredients surpass standard regulations to ensure high quality and safety, even in the absence of third-party certification
  • Testing benchmarks, which denote when, in addition to federally required tests, a brand performs noncompulsory testing using third-party, internationally accredited labs, and shares transparent results
  • Technical innovation, denoting a brand that underscores the scientific validity and efficacy of its products by performing clinical tests or including doctors and scientists on its leadership team

We’re proud that Vital Nutrients earns an Elite TrustScore, ranking in the top 10% of the most popular brands for SuppCo users.
