Quality Manufacturing

We obtain the finest quality nutritional raw materials from the best domestic and global sources. Site auditing and extensive lab testing are utilized to keep our suppliers' and our own standards high. YOR lends its support for quality in the industry through high internal quality standards and education. Furthermore, external quality standards are provided through education with support of outside research.

There are many levels and steps to quality. Whether from the grower’s fields, wild-crafted herbs, fermentation, or pharmaceutical grade ingredients each raw material is subjected to inspection at many steps. The raw materials are tested for potency, impurities and microbiological burden. If they pass they are sent from the processors to manufacturers. At the manufacturer, other tests are done including: potency testing, compliance with California Prop’ 65 standards, micro testing, and other specialty analysis.

Our manufacturers audit the raw materials for GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) compliance. Only then are they blended and made into finished goods. These products also undergo pre–blend, in-process and post-process testing. These tests include verifying each ingredient against a master formula, documentation of every step in the process and keeping samples of the product for Quality Control. Quality Assurance then does additional tests such as weighing the capsule or tablet for target weight, dissolve rates, container count and additional microbiological testing to assure a clean product.
