Prouduct standards

At Blue Poppy, we pride ourselves on setting the industry standard for quality and ethical procurement and manufacturing practices. The highest quality Chinese herbs are used in the manufacture of our formulas. The botanical identity of each ingredient is then checked by a trained Chinese medical pharmacognosist when it arrives at the factory. If necessary, TLC (Thin Layer Chromatography) is used to confirm identity.

All processing from beginning to end occurs in sanitized stainless steel equipment. The herbs are extracted using water and high pressure at 75 degrees centigrade.The extract is then concentrated with a vacuum and high pressure in a centrifuge. The resulting concentrate is spray-dried and then sifted and ground into a fine even particle sized powder.

The Blue Poppy herbal product lines now include:

•	concentrated traditional formulas in tablets and capsules
•	pediatric liquid formulas
•	effective topical formulas
•	unique formulations based on modern Chinese research
•	new ground-breaking, excipient-free granules that feature many single herbs and more formulas than most other brands
