    About Independent Audits 
  • Education First

    Most companies claim to prioritize education, but sales regulations make honest discussion difficult. We separate Education, Consumer Guidance, and Advocacy so our message stays clear and independent.

What makes Herbal Edge different?

Herbal Edge is founded on transparency. We step in where regulators have failed by demanding transparency, independent testing, and accountability from every manufacturer we work with. Every product in our store is lab-tested and independently audited by Herbal Edge for quality assurance, so you can trust what’s inside.

Our mission is simple: give consumers the reliable, evidence-based information they need to make decisions about their own wellness.

What is your "independent audit?"

Every manufacturer we work with must complete batch testing and provide verified lab results for each product we carry. After that, Herbal Edge conducts blind audits. We purchase select products anonymously, send them to an independent lab for testing, and publish the results. It’s our way of holding brands accountable and ensuring that what’s on the label matches what’s in the jar.
