Many consumers assume the FDA tests and approves supplements before sale. This is not how it works. Understanding the actual regulatory framework helps you make informed decisions.
The FDA regulates post-market safety (can take action against unsafe products), enforces Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) compliance, monitors labeling claims and registers manufacturing facilities.
The FDA does not test or approve supplements before they reach shelves. It does not verify efficacy claims. It does not certify ingredients. The phrase “FDA-registered facility” means the facility is registered, not that the products are FDA-approved.
You are responsible for evaluating supplement quality. Look for GMP-certified manufacturing, ingredient transparency, company reputation and third-party testing. SodaPeak is manufactured in a GMP-certified, FDA-registered facility.
