Nature’s Best Supplements
Experience an uncompromising approach to supplements formulated by nature
When you select a NutraMedix supplement, know that the people behind that product made it with quality, safety, and potency in mind.
We conduct extensive research
We conduct extensive research to secure the highest-quality raw materials from nature’s richest resources. We seek out the purest ingredients, wherever in the world they might be, and have them delivered to our U.S. manufacturing facility in a raw, unprocessed state to retain the full potency and spectrum of beneficial properties.
Uncaria tomentosa
(pentacyclic chemotype)
For example, Samento is a rare and superior type of cat’s claw that cannot be obtained as a raw material with the click of an order button or a simple phone call. We fly to remote locations in Peru, some of them accessible only by seaplane. (Our founder, Tim Eaton, initially discovered the botanical wonders of the Amazon as a missionary pilot aiding tribal groups in Peru.)
Upon landing, the journey continues on foot as the tribal natives we’ve formed ties with over the decades lead us hours into the rainforest to find the precise type of cat’s claw we need. It is then that we rely on the most advanced portable computerized technology to positively confirm the cat’s claw located is, without question, the rare pentacyclic chemotype of Uncaria tomentosa from which we make NutraMedix Samento.
How do we know we’ve found the best ingredients?
Without exception, all of our suppliers must go through our stringent vendor-qualification process. Not only does our manufacturing facility follow the established set of standards known as current good manufacturing practices (cGMPs), we require our ingredient suppliers to follow these standards as well.

Exceeds Quality Standards
You’ll hear “exceed” rather than “sufficient” when we talk about our quality standards as quality drives everything we do. The best ingredients are the foundation of a potent supplement, but the NutraMedix passion for quality goes well beyond ingredients, carrying through to the finished product.
Depending on the product, different plant parts must be used. We verify that the material received exactly matches our raw ingredient specifications. We use actual plant material in our products rather than the powdered extracts found in some products. The difference carries through in potency purity and efficacy.
Our unique enhancement process optimizes the whole herb for a more powerful, broad-spectrum, concentrated extract by using multiple stages to maximize the final extract.
We believe that if we are going to make a supplement, it needs to deliver the expected results. It is essential that bioavailability be maximized. We do this by providing hydro-alcoholic extracts that allow maximum dissolubility of phenolics, alkaloids, and other beneficial constituents from the plant material. For that reason, many of our products are in liquid form.
Because we understand that many people are sensitive to certain plants, we strive to use plants and materials that avoid common allergens whenever possible. We want you to be able to take our products with confidence.
Quality Supplements by Design
Before any raw materials are obtained, our research and development team determines the most bioavailable form.
When sourcing raw materials, we strive to find the highest quality, even if that takes us to the depths of the Peruvian Amazon.
We make our liquid extracts here at our U.S. manufacturing facility using a specialized proprietary extraction process that optimizes the herb in its original, unprocessed state to obtain powerful, broad-spectrum concentration. Because our extracts are made in-house, we control all aspects of quality.
Raw materials must pass our rigorous testing. Once an extract is made from the raw materials, that extract is tested. Testing is repeated for each and every lot of the finished supplement product as well.
