Manufacturing nutritional supplements is a profound responsibility. We are
constantly aware that the products we make are incorporated into your cells and
tissues—they become the very substance of your being.
Our Commitment to Your Well-Being
As developers of a leading
line of dietary supplements,
we at Source
Naturals know we have
a unique responsibility.

irreplaceable—your
physical and mental
well-being. You expect

Our Commitment toYour Well-Being
procedures that assure
every product we
produce is of the highest
quality. We have set in
place intricate protocols
of checks and balances.
But our commitment to
quality does not begin or
end at the laboratory
door. From purchasing to
warehousing, from the
first stage of blending to
the finishing touches
in packaging, we continually
strive to imbue
quality at all points in
our systems.
Clear protocols, policies
and procedures establish
the framework, but TQA
at Source Naturals is a
living system of dedicated
people. TQA is our
organizing principle. The
whole company is
structured around quality
circle teams. They are fast
and creative, enabling us
to quickly take nutritional
quality to the next
level of performance.
There is no entrenched
bureaucracy, intent on
maintaining the status
quo. Instead, staff members
participate in teams
focused on the continual
improvement of our
products. In our everevolving
quality circles,
team members are
encouraged to brainstorm
and think “outside the
box,” to discover
innovative ways to raise
product quality.

“Formulation is an art—based on science, traditional approaches, and a thorough
understanding of an issue. My prime responsibility is to design and create
formulas that are comprehensive and effective. I strongly believe in supporting the
whole person and in empowering people to take control of their health through nutrition
and self-education.”
–Linda Meltzer, C.N., Research Specialist
Scientific Formulation
Formulation at Source
Naturals begins with our
highly trained research
and product development
staff. Our researchers
conduct an exhaustive
review of the scientific
literature on each nutrient
or botanical.
Their investigation covers
traditional approaches,
modern medical
interventions, and
current studies.
Dosage, delivery
method, optimal ratios
and combinations of
ingredients, biochemical
interactions of
nutrients and herbs, the
quality and form of raw
materials—all are scrutinized in a quest for
product efficacy.
Members of our research,
product development,
quality control, regulatory
affairs and manufacturing
groups regularly
attend quality circle
meetings. At these meetings,
team members
contribute their particular
expertise to resolve
complex issues in the
development of formulas,
labels and literature.
Source Naturals
researchers have all the
scientific knowledge and
tools of the supplement
industry at their fingertips—
but they also have
something other companies
may lack.
Our expert formulators
understand the need to
address nutritional symptoms*
at their root cause:
body system imbalances.
The ultimate expression
of this quality-assured
formulation method is
our line of Bio-Aligned
Formulas™. These products
address nutritional
symptoms* by supporting
the multiple body
systems involved.
Only by this holistic
method of bringing
alignment to your interdependent
body systems
can vibrant health
be attained.
Source Naturals labels
and literature explain the
structure-fun ...The packaging process requires careful coordination from start to finish. All
products are meticulously tracked, counted or measured, filled into finished
containers, safety-sealed, and assigned identification codes. This ensures the
highest quality product – from our facility to the consumer’s hands.
-Alex Rosario, Packaging Supervisor
Flawless Finished Goods
Our Packaging
Department has final
responsibility for seeing
that our high quality supplements
reach you in
a form that ensures
safety, freshness
and accountability.
Maintaining Freshness
Source Naturals takes
great care to package our
products in a manner
that maintains the quality
and potency of the ingredients.
We print “best if
used by” dates on our
bottles to let you know
they are fresh. To protect
certain products from
moisture, which can
lower tablet potency, desiccants
are inserted into bottles. An inner seal provides
further protection.
Ensuring Uniform Safety Standards
High-speed tablet counters
correctly add the
number of tablets to
place in each bottle. After
bottles are filled, they are
capped and pressuresensitive
seals are applied
to make the product
tamper-evident. A full
body sleeve is heatshrunk
to each bottle,
adding a second
tamper seal.
Achieving Accountability
Source Naturals traces all
material lots used in our
products from receipt to
finished product.
Through careful documentation,
we have the
ability to track a single
ingredient throughout
the entire manufacturing
process to the completed
bottled product. The
material number, weight,
and lot number of each
ingredient are recorded
on batch sheets. Each
bottle is marked with a
unique, traceable manufacturing
lot number.
This means a bottle can
be taken off a store shelf
and every ingredient
traced back to its source.
Inspecting Finished Products

specific set of standards

California’s Santa Cruz
Mountains, overlooking
Monterey Bay. The 400 people
who work at our company are
surrounded by nature’s beauty.
The ebb and flow of tides, the
flight patterns of shore birds, the
migration of whales, the rings
that mark the years of ancient
Redwoods—all are daily
reminders of nature’s quest for
balance and alignment. Our
strong connection to nature
guides us, as we apply these
holistic principles to the development
of nutritional supplements.
We believe our formulations are
at the leading edge of a revolution
in health consciousness,
which includes new perspectives
in diet, lifestyle, emotional and
personal development and complementary
health care. Source
Naturals’ Strategy for Wellnesssm

Continuous Quality Assurance
Our Quality Control
Department includes
staff trained in microbiological
assays, heavy
metal screening, analytical
chemistry and Eastern
and Western herbalism.
They utilize procedures
that go beyond minimum
industry requirements
to ensure product
excellence. All raw materials
and finished goods
must meet our inspectors’
rigorous quality specifications
at every stage
of manufacturing.
Pure Raw Materials
Bulk raw materials must
be accompanied by
Certificates of Analysis
provided by the vendors.
They are sampled and inspected according to a
long list of specifications,
including appearance,
color, odor, flavor, texture,
absence of extraneous
material, and potency
of active constituents.
Vitamins, minerals and
amino acids are screened
and/or tested for impurities,
while materials,
such as herbs, that
are biological in origin
are tested for microbiological
contamination.
Bioavailable
Manufactured Product
Inspectors scrutinize finished
tablets to see that
they meet our standards
for consistency in size,
color, aroma or taste, are
not broken, and contain
no contaminants.
Representative samples
are taken to verify
potency. Tablets and capsules
are tested to ensure
they are consistent in size
and comply with USP
standards for weight variation.
Threshold utilizes
USP disintegration standards*
as its guidelines to
ensure tablets will break
up appropriately after
ingestion, making the
ingredients available for
use by your body.

Performance ...“Overseeing and tracking the manufacture of approximately 500 different products
is a challenging and very satisfying responsibility. I take pride in making sure all
aspects of manufacturing—material rotation and pulling, mixing, wet granulation,
milling, tableting, and encapsulation—run smoothly and efficiently.
–Dale Nemecek, Manufacturing Supervisor
From Formula to Implementation
Source Naturals’ manufacturing
team has an
enormous responsibility:
bringing to fruition the
plans so carefully laid
down on paper by our
research and product
development staff.
Here’s how.
Premium Ingredients
Because grinding or cutting
increases the exposure
of plants to light,
heat and air, and can
cause a powdered herb to
degrade, whole herbs are
milled on site. The result
is fresher, more potent
botanicals. Source
Naturals also seeks to
minimize excipients
(non-active ingredients) in tablets and to use the
most natural sources
available. Vegetable gums
bind ingredients together,
vegetable fiber (cellulose)
improves hardness and
compressibility, and
modified cellulose gum
facilitates disintegration
after ingestion. Only natural
flavorings and sweeteners
are used in our
lozenges or chewable
tablets. Our labels
provide full disclosure
of all ingredients
and excipients.
Optimal Production Methods
Ingredients are pulled
from our warehouse
using first-in, first-out
inventory practices.
Batches of measured
materials are processed
according to individual
specifications. For tablets,
roller compaction
improves granulation and
milling decreases particle
size. Wet granulation is
used when appropriate as
an alternative: active
ingredients are blended
with water and vegetable
binder, dried, milled, and
compressed on a tablet
press. Tablets are coated
with cellulose and polished,
adding a smooth,
attractive surface that
protects them and makes
them easier to swallow.
