We don't want any contamination. Typically, if we find this insect contamination we have a problem with live insects in a short period of time. Because the insects lay eggs in the herb, which hatch, and they like to eat the herb. A notorious example is bee pollen, typically having a problem with wax moths. In each vitamin batch that we produce, we check our tablets for disintegration and dissolution .
Disintegration is the way the tablet breaks down.
It's important that tablets break down and that you have the confidence that they will break down in your body. We had several other products that we tested in our equipment for two days, and they didn't even break down. Some companies say put the product in vinegar, and if it breaks down it's a good calcium supplement. But this is basically a chalk form of calcium. We choose not to use that.
