Moderate Exposure Risk — Why This Product Category Matters

Supplement capsules and tablets are often made from gelatin (animal-derived), hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC, a synthetic polymer), or titanium dioxide. Supplement bottles are typically plastic. The supplement industry has less regulatory oversight than pharmaceuticals, and many products contain undisclosed additives.

Why We Recommend This Product

Nordic Naturals' third-party testing for purity and potency is one of the most comprehensive in the supplement industry. Their Friend of the Sea certification ensures sustainable sourcing. No synthetic additives.
