Finding Organic Non GMO Supplements

By Colette Foreman


Genetically modified organisms are becoming more and more a part of life, especially in the United States. Those who prefer to eat organically may also want to find organic non GMO supplements when they take vitamins, minerals, and herbal formulas. Many food items, from which a supplement may be made, and other plants and animals are now bio-engineered. Therefore, screening everything that will be ingested may be more important than ever.

Most consumers don't have either the knowledge or the time to investigate on their own. Fortunately, there's a quick way to feel confident. This is in trusting the 'organic' certification of a supplement. Just as with food, this assurance tells the consumer that there are no GMOs in the product. There are only a few companies that produce this kind of food-based and food-quality nutritional aids.

Although few companies produce all-organic, food-based formulas, this doesn't mean consumers can't get what they want and need. The companies that have this philosophy market a full product line, with daily multi-vitamins and more specific formulas to target such things as inflammation, joint problems, hormone deficiencies, and stress-related anxiety.

Another way to make sure of getting highest-quality, pure, and completely natural products is to buy from companies that promise to use only carefully-selected and independently-tested raw materials in their formulas. The company that pledges this kind of care should have third-party certification and an excellent rating in the industry. All reputable manufacturers will have toll free numbers and be glad to answer any questions consumer may raise.

Of course, a GMO-free logo on the label helps, as well. Many consumer groups would like to see the opposite - GMO content - labeled, but this is not a legal requirement. Many manufacturers will have the fact that their products are free of such altered substances prominently displayed on the label to help careful consumers know their products fit their needs.

Since many companies buy their raw materials from outside sources, this makes it even harder to get assurances of complete quality control and purity. There are manufacturers who test every batch of wild-crafted herbs, for instance, or other purchased raw materials to ensure they are both pure and potent. The integrity of the manufacturer is the consumer's safe-guard, so this must be checked out thoroughly.

Even though the amounts of any substance in supplementary form are small, they can be dangerous. In addition, they are often expensive. Consumers should be able to trust that they will get exactly what they pay for, in the amounts stated on the product label, and in a form that is bio-available (usable by the human system) and all-natural.

The research that calls GMOs safe for human use is mostly done by the food industry. Until impartial and properly-conducted tests are finished, no one can know the effects genetic modification will have on people. Many people would prefer not to be used as guinea pigs for testing the safety of mainstream products. Buying 100% organically-certified foods and nutritional products can give consumers peace of mind while awaiting the results of comprehensive safety tests. .
