FDA, GMP, USDA: Transparency, Quality, Purity | Key Objectives of Secrets of the Tribe

Not just badges of honor

Your wellness is our personal concern. To provide you with high-quality herbal supplements, we only use purest natural ingredients that we carefully choose.

We strive to keep traditional herbal practices and embrace modern technology and science. Thus we can offer our clients trustworthy herbal supplements manufactured of finest raw ingredients in modern facilities

We aim  to achieve transparency in the production process. To prove our dedication to quality, we:

• have obtained Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) certification;

• have obtained USDA Organic certification.

Let’s explore what each abbreviation means.

FDA-Registration: Transparency

Even though the FDA doesn’t check and approve dietary supplements, manufacturers are required to register with the FDA. 

To become FDA-registered, a manufacturer must provide key details about its operations and comply with FDA regulations on labeling, reporting, and good manufacturing practices.

As a registered facility, we strive to comply with strict guidelines concerning:

• equipment sanitation,

• quality control,

• employee safety,

• contamination prevention,

• record keeping.

How a Business Gets FDA-Registered

• A company submits details about its operations.

• All manufacturing processes, including choosing appropriate raw ingredients, product testing and maintaining the facility clean, must meet FDA criteria.

• The FDA has the authority to inspect manufacturing facilities to check if they comply with federal laws. (FDA doesn't guarantee it inspects all the registered companies.)

GMP-Certified: Quality

Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) certification is one of the most important certifications a supplement company can get. These three letters mean that a company’s production processes meet strict quality criteria, and that they are pure. 

Every year, Secrets of the Tribe voluntarily goes through extensive independent audits conducted by independent third-party auditors accredited for GMP certification.

To get GMP-certified, we have proved that we:

• carry on regular employee training - from sanitation crew to lab techs and quality control supervisors,

• keep detailed records,

• control processes,

• implement appropriate sanitary procedures,

• maintain a clean manufacturing facility that prevents cross-contamination or adulteration,

• get raw materials from trusted suppliers,

• check ingredients to ensure identity and purity,

• provide detailed, written instructions for each production step,

• carry on extensive product testing procedures,

• implement thorough quality control. 

We strive to produce every batch of our herbal supplements according to strict guidelines.

When you choose a GMP-certified brand, you can be sure you have made an informed choice for your health and well-being.

USDA Organic: Purity

We have achieved organic certification from the USDA. This seal guarantees that our products contain at least 95% organic content. What does it mean? That they are free of:

• pesticides or other chemicals,

• synthetic additives,

• GMOs.

Organic foods are usually believed to be a healthier choice. This is especially important for pregnant women or people with chronic ailments because these groups are more vulnerable to the negative effects of synthetic additives. 

If you choose products with the USDA Organic Seal, like organic supplements from Secrets of the Tribe, you can be sure you make a wise decision. All our products are manufactured under thorough control, and all processes, from seed cultivation and herb harvesting to delivery to your door, meet strict federal guidelines.

How a Business Gets USDA Organic Certification

To get certified, a company should prove that every production stage is regulated and meets stringent criteria. 

Raw ingredients

USDA organic seal is only granted to the supplements if the raw ingredients for them are grown, processed, and harvested without the use of genetic engineering, hormones, synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, irradiation, sewage sludge, and other additives.

Facility

Not only ingredients are checked. The entire facility is as well thoroughly inspected: from equipment used to store and process supplements to cleaning materials used on food-contact surfaces. It is done to exclude any cross-contamination.

USDA Organic Certification has to be renewed every year. It means that our facility and ingredients are regularly checked to make sure they meet strict criteria.

Our USDA Organic certification is a guarantee that we source our herbal materials ethically and responsibly.
