The Standards Defined.

Every batch is screened for 280+ substances banned by professional sports organizations worldwide. This isn't just for athletes; the certification provides reassurance that AG1 products have been tested and certified for quality, purity, and safety for everyone.

Naturally occurring heavy metals are present in plant-based ingredients through soil and water. We test every batch for lead, mercury, cadmium, and arsenic to confirm levels fall well below the thresholds set by the United States Pharmacopeia (USP) and NSF International.

We do not formulate with wheat, dairy, egg, or peanut-containing ingredients and we verify this on the labels and COAs. Our manufacturing facilities adhere to strict allergen and validated cleaning protocols to reduce the chances of cross-contamination.

We partner with Alkemist Labs—a leader in botanical and nutraceutical testing—to confirm the identity and potency of raw botanical ingredients that go into our products. Through advanced analytical methods, Alkemist Labs independently validates consistency in our product quality from batch to batch.

Each batch of AG1 is tested for a panel of quality and purity analytes, including microbial contaminants, heavy metals, allergens, and banned substances. As part of routine testing, we also test for chemical compounds like caffeine and oxalates. The Certificate of Analysis (COA) is a document that contains our testing report and the results based on safe limits and specifications.

We test all 75+ ingredients to ensure the levels on the label match exactly what enters your body.

Nutritional potency can degrade during manufacturing or storage. We verify every ingredient against label specifications to make sure you're getting exactly what's promised. This is also where our NSF Certified for Sport® testing goes deeper, covering categories including anabolic agents, stimulants, hormone antagonists, diuretics, and growth hormone secretagogues.

Every batch undergoes independent, third-party evaluation of both taste and aroma to ensure that what reaches the customer is consistent with what was formulated, batch after batch. Plus, this high standard for sensory excellence is achieved without resorting to artificial sweeteners.
