Most products are good for a minimum of 36 months if
properly stored in its original container in a cool, dry
place away from light, water, humidity, and extreme
variations in temperature. There are
two types of ingredients that are primarily found in many
encapsulated dietary supplements:
- Fillers: When encapsulating nutritional supplements,
sometimes a filler is added to the capsule to fill up space.
Two popular fillers are dicalcium phosphate and plant
cellulose, but there are many others that can be used as
well. We do not use fillers in our products.
- Lubricants: Many times a lubricant is used to prevent
the ingredients inside the capsule from clumping. Examples
of lubricants are magnesium stearate, stearic acid, silica,
and various forms of vegetable stearins. We do not use
lubricants in our products.
