Ingredient Traceability – What It Is and Why It Matters
When it comes to supplements, knowing exactly what you're putting into your body and why takes more than just reading the list of ingredients. A label will tell you what it's made with, but it doesn't always explain how those ingredients were grown, harvested, or processed.
You deserve the full story behind every ingredient, so you can make informed and empowered decisions. That's why we've built our entire process around ingredient traceability, and we keep our supply chain open to your scrutiny.
What Is Ingredient Traceability?
Traceable ingredients can be tracked at every stage of their journey from the time they were planted to the moment they reach your hands.
At Global Healing, we maintain full documentation on:
- Where each ingredient was grown (right down to the name of the farm)
- How it was cultivated (including soil, water, and air conditions)
- When it was harvested and processed (because the time of year and harvesting methods can affect quality)
- Who handled it at each step (so we know exactly who to contact – no runarounds)
We even pay close attention to the energy surrounding our ingredients and formulas because we believe plants absorb energies from their surroundings, including the sun, moon, wind, water, soil, and people. From seed to supplement, we intentionally infuse our ingredients with high-vibrational, positive energy that honors human and nature equally.
Why Does Ingredient Traceability Matter?
Ingredient traceability gives you a clear picture of a company's standards.
Purity
Traceability means accountability. We know – and have the documentation to prove – that our ingredients are tested for heavy metals, pesticides, and other contaminants before they reach our production line.
Quality
An herb grown in nutrient-rich, chemical-free soil and gently dried to preserve its active compounds will offer a very different experience than one grown with pesticides and processed with high-heat extraction methods.
Transparency
There's no guesswork or gray area with traceable ingredients. You can feel confident that what's listed on the label – including the potency claims – is in the bottle.
Ethics & Sustainability
We know exactly where everything comes from, we walk the fields that grow our ingredients, and we know our suppliers and vendors personally. This kind of attention makes it easy for us to identify and avoid those who use exploitative or unsustainable methods.
Safety
In the event that we receive contaminated or low-quality raw materials, we can quickly identify the source and return the product. If we run into another issue, we remove that supplier from our list and seek another.
How Does Global Healing Verify Traceability?
We back up our standards with documentation, testing, and open communication:
Lot Numbers. Every glass bottle is laser-etched with a unique lot number and expiration date, so we can track each product's journey from raw ingredient to final formula to your hands.
Certificate of Analysis (COA). These lab-verified documents prove that each ingredient meets our high standards for identity, potency, and purity. You can request them any time.
Third-Party Testing. We rely on certified third-party labs to confirm ingredient identity, verify potency claims, and ensure everything is free from harmful contaminants.
Certifications. USDA Organic, Fair Trade, Non-GMO Project Verified, Kosher. These certifications hold profound meaning in the supplement industry, but only when backed by paperwork. We maintain full documentation as required by law and welcome any questions.
Informative Product Pages. Every product page on our website includes detailed breakdowns of the active ingredients, their components, and why we chose them.
Trace Your Supplements with Confidence
If one of our product pages doesn't list a specific source, it's likely because we work with multiple suppliers depending on the time of year or where we find the best quality ingredients. Regardless of the source, every batch goes through the same rigorous testing and documentation.
