Horse Chestnut

Aesculus hippocastanum L.

Extract standardized to contain 20% aescin

Tests done on every batch

Manufacturers determine the amount and types of testing done on raw ingredients. Nature’s Way goes above and beyond industry standards with extensive testing on every batch of ingredients before they even go into production.

Aescin

Nature’s Way analyzes every batch of horse chestnut seed extract standardized to contain 20% aescin to ensure that you receive the potency promised on the label.

Standardized assay

Assay testing is performed on certain raw materials to measure the amount of a key component. This testing ensures consistency across batches of raw material, so you can feel confident that the ingredient matches the quantified amount declared on the label.

Identification

Verifying each botanical genus, species, and plant part ensures your product contains the exact ingredient listed in the Supplement Facts panel. High-Performance Thin-Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) testing provides a detailed chemical fingerprint of the ingredient for comparison against certified botanical reference standards. HPTLC testing is among the best, most reliable methods for authenticating raw materials.

Microbiological contaminants

Nature’s Way tests every ingredient for microbial contaminants that can break down ingredients, decrease potency, and degrade a product’s quality. Verifying that ingredients meet regulatory standards for microorganisms like bacteria, molds, and yeasts helps ensure a safe and compliant product.

Heavy metals

Every ingredient is tested to meet regulatory standards for heavy metals, including arsenic, cadmium, mercury, and lead. Testing for trace metal levels ensures ingredients comply with protective laws like California’s Proposition 65, and that the supplement won’t expose you to harmful levels of chemicals.

Solvent residue

Trace amounts of solvents used during processes such as ingredient extraction may remain in the raw materials. Performing USP <467> screening ensures that residual solvents are within safe, regulated limits. Testing every lot of the ingredient ensures it is processed according to Good Manufacturing Practices.

Tests performed periodically

Nature’s Way performs additional tests to ensure every supplier’s testing meets federal regulatory and our own high standards. Extra testing is especially critical for monitoring higher-risk botanicals.

Pesticides

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) sets safety limits, known as tolerances, for residual pesticides, and the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) requires botanical suppliers to comply. Nature’s Way verifies compliance with these tolerances through annual or periodic in-house testing of raw materials following the standards outlined in USP <561> to ensure safety and quality.

Aflatoxins

Aflatoxins are naturally occurring mycotoxins produced by specific mold and fungi species that grow on crops and botanicals, so it’s important to know your products are tested for them. Aflatoxin qualification testing at Nature’s Way ensures our suppliers’ testing is reliable and that the ingredients meet the required qualifications.

Horse Chestnut

The ingredient

Some say Aesculus hippocastanum acquired the moniker “horse chestnut” during the siege of Vienna in 1529 when the seeds were used to feed horses. Others believed it could help winded horses recover. Either way, horse chestnuts are truly only edible for horses and have no relation to the sweet chestnuts we humans roast on open fires.

Horse chestnut grows on farms or wild in woody valleys throughout the temperate zones of Europe and Asia. The trees can be identified by their large, hand-shaped leaves, with white or red blossoms in the spring and sticky leaf buds in autumn. They grow tall, to a height of up to 98 feet; in fact, a horse chestnut tree kept Anne Frank company outside her high window in the attic.

Dandelion

The ingredient

While some may say the dandelion—a small, flower-like botanical that grows quickly and plentifully around the globe—is a pesky weed, it’s actually a versatile botanical rich in vitamins A, C, and K, and minerals like potassium and magnesium. While it is commonly used in teas, tinctures, powders, and other wellness preparations, its leaves and flowers can also be eaten, most commonly in salads.

Cultivated dandelions are typically harvested in the fall when the roots are strong. Wildcrafted dandelions are mostly collected from mountainous regions, usually after the roots are two or three years old.

Butcher’s Broom

The ingredient

Ruscus shrubs got the name “butcher’s broom” from their utilitarian structure. The evergreen’s branches are stiff and filled with flat leaves—making them perfect mini-brooms. Butchers used them to clean their blocks, and some believe that the leaves have antibacterial oils.

Cayenne Pepper

The ingredient

We call it a cayenne pepper, but did you know these spicy peppers are actually a fruit? The cayenne is a long, slim red pepper often used to add heat and spice to cooking, though they have also been utilized in various wellness practices.

Peppers can be dried and ground into a powder. Their heat level is measured on what’s called the Scoville Heat Units (SHU) scale; most cayenne peppers rate between 30,000 and 50,000 units.

Gotu Kola

The ingredient

Gotu kola has been used in Asian wellness practices that trace back thousands of years, including Ayurveda. The plant itself is a member of the parsley family, but is called a pennywort by some for its round leaves. In addition to its culinary appeal, it’s often boiled down into a tea and sipped as a traditional panacea for well-being.
