Kirkman offers revolutionary purity testing protocol

Why does Kirkman nutritional supplement company insist that it has the purest supplements in the world?

It's because Kirkman is the only nutritional supplement company in the world with a purity standard they call 'Ultra Tested,' where each raw ingredient is tested for more than 950 environmental contaminants and finished products, including 24 heavy metals, bacteria, yeast, mold and other common allergens.

The fact is that many supplements on the market can have harmful substances in them, if not tested thoroughly. A recent study was conducted and published in the US National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health to determine the arsenic content in ten widely consumed prenatal and children's dietary supplements. All the tested products were found to contain arsenite and dimethylarsinic acid.

Comparatively, a University of Guelph study reported that out of 44 herbal products from 12 major United States and Canadian companies, more than 20% included fillers, such as rice, soybeans and wheat not listed on the label. These unlisted or contaminated ingredients can be immensely dangerous for people with food allergies.

'Several years ago, we found out the hard way that we could not tell what was in our supplements unless we tested it,' Kirkman's Executive Vice President, Kulani Mahikoa said. 'The decision to adopt our Ultra Tested protocol, which remains the highest standard of purity testing in the nutraceutical industry, was an expensive one. In fact, no other company has made the investment in the same degree of purity testing that we have. We did it because many of our customers are sensitive to allergens and we put our customers first — always.'

Kirkman offers a variety of supplements and vitamins specifically manufactured for those with food sensitivities. Almost all of Kirkman's supplements are gluten-, casein- and dairy-free with specific allergy information clearly stated on every label. Kirkman's Ultra Tested line of products far exceed industry quality standards and have earned the company the reputation as the leading manufacturer for individuals with special needs who require hypoallergenic and ultra-pure supplements.

All of the products that Kirkman manufactures are Ultra Tested except lotions, creams and oils.
