A known maker. A tracked lot.
Energy Flo Herbs are made for us by a manufacturer in Anhui province, China, and we hold its licence and inspection papers on file. Every bottle carries its lot number and expiry, and we record the lot on every order we ship from Riviera Beach.
We are arranging independent testing at an accredited US laboratory, starting with our most-used formulas, and will publish the results on our Energy Flo page.

Questions practitioners ask
How are teapills different from granules or capsules?
Teapills are small, round pills made from concentrated herbal extract. They are easy to carry and dose, and patients can adjust the number of pills. Granules are mixed into water, and capsules hold a powder. The formula is the same classical prescription in each form.
How long does one bottle last?
At 5–8 teapills per serving, one bottle of 200 holds 25 servings. How many servings a day is the practitioner's call.
Can I see the lab documentation?
Yes. We hold the manufacturer's production licence, its GMP inspection paperwork and the lab reports we have so far, and we send them to any practitioner who asks. Independent US testing is being arranged, and the results will be published on our Energy Flo page.
Why does the page show a California Prop 65 warning?
Plants take up trace minerals from soil, including lead, so most botanical products contain trace amounts. California requires a warning when the daily amount at the highest labelled dose could pass a very low threshold. We will publish our measured lead results on our Energy Flo page when they arrive.
Can my patients order this directly?
Through AcuScript, our free virtual dispensary: you set your own price, your patient checks out online, and we ship to their door. Practitioner accounts can set it up from the account menu.
