Vaxa's Manufacturing Superiority
UPDATE (March 21 , 2008): VAXA INTERNATIONAL INTRODUCES THE WORLD'S FIRST BUFFERED, pH BALANCED PRODUCT LINE!
Vaxa's physician-formulated products already combine homeopathic medicines with amino acids, vitamins, minerals,
and herbal extracts for a holistic, multi-dimensional approach that offers a powerful alternative to simple nutritional
supplements or single-action products currently available in the natural health industry. NOW, Vaxa, has
reformulated its entire product line to ensure that every formula is pH balanced and buffered.
"The importance of a pH-balanced system is paramount to maintaining good health", says Dr. Terry Shirvani, Vaxa's
Chief Medical Officer. "Leading biochemists have recognized pH, or the acid-alkaline balance, as vital to wellbeing.
Our bodies are alkaline by design and acid by function. Maintaining proper alkalinity is essential for life, health,
and vitality. Simply put, an imbalance of alkalinity can lead to various chronic diseases like cardiovascular disease,
high blood pressure, diabetes, and arthritis. This is a major advancement for Vaxa. Ensuring that each Vaxa product
is pH balanced and buffered distinguishes us further as a leader in the natural products industry. Our goal is to make
it clear that maintaining a balanced pH system can enhance well-being and promote health."
Vaxa has also updated its look and packaging with a fresh new design. The new design reflects consumer demand to be more
functional, visually appealing, and eco-friendly. The packaging is now 100-percent recyclable. There's also a new
flip-top cap for easy opening, and a label window so you can easily see the capsule size and know when you're running low.
We Will Not Compromise on Ingredient Quality. That's Why 98% of Suppliers Flunk Our Tests!
The First Test!
We believe so strongly in our formulations that we absolutely will not compromise on ingredient quality. For each ingredient we screen potential suppliers by several critical factors. We ask questions such as: "In which region was it grown?", "Is it certified organic?", "Was it grown for supplements or for whole foods?", "How do you prevent degradation of the product?", "Is it irradiated or chemically cleaned?". All active ingredients must be "pharmaceutical-grade".
The World's Leading Source of Homeopathy!
Vaxa uses unique combinations of electromagnetically induced homeopathic ingredients, which are manufactured by Dolisos America, considered the world's largest investor in homeopathy. The production procedures at Dolisos are carried out in accordance with Good Manufacturing Practices and meet or exceed ongoing FDA
Homeopathic Pharmaceutical requirements. All potencies are manufactured, certified pure and registered potent in one facility. All of that is a good start, but we dig deeper. There are hundreds of sources for homeopathic ingredients, many of which start with good raw materials. Dolisos is separated from the other "high quality"suppliers by its handling procedures. You see, homeopathic ingredients are very electromagnetically sensitive and must be handled with extreme care. No machines can be used in bottling the tinctures. The tincture must be sent in an amber vial, no plastic, and no metal. The cap on the vial must be plastic with a wax liner and must be put on by hand by a person wearing a rubber glove. Dolisos cares as much as we do and follows all of these procedures and more to ensure the highest quality and most electromagnetically-active homeopathic ingredients in the world.

Only the Superior Supplier Passes the 1st Examination... A More Rigorous Test Comes Next!
In the lab, raw materials from a vendor are tested as they come in the door; we do not accept the certificate of analysis at face value. Tests are done visually, by smell, taste and then scientifically. Alkalinity is tested and the batch is run through a pharmaceutical standard, state of the art machine
called a high-pressure liquid chromatographer, to test down to the trillions the elemental factors of the compound. Then it is blueprinted on a near infrared
scanner that identifies 450 constituents qualitatively. That becomes our standard and every future batch from that vendor must match. Before the ingredient goes to manufacturing it is tested for micro-biological contaminants, such as Strep, E Coli, or Salmonella.
The VAXA Top 1% Manufacturing Standard
There Are 1037 Nutritional Manufacturing Facilities in The USA... ONE Passed Our Rigorous 7 Step Examination!
Less than 1/2 of 1% of the nutritional manufacturing facilities in the country match the exacting standards followed in the Vaxa facility. Our products are manufactured in a lab that follows standards beyond those suggested under Good Manufacturing Procedure guidelines.
Clinical Lab Conditions - No Contamination!
The manufacturing lab is a clinical environment with all stainless steel construction. To clean the lab we UV sterilize, carbon filter, reverse osmosis, ozone inject, mix bed de-ionize and boiler kettle our own water. This procedure is above Kosher requirements.
Precise Environmental Standards - No Contamination!
Each room has its own air handler that completely exchanges the air 50 times per hour. The temperature is at a constant 71 degrees and the humidity is less than 35%. Pure, clean air is a critical element in manufacturing a pure product. There are so many contaminants in the air, that a state of the art air scrubbing system is a necessity. Many facilities just have a "dust handler" and rely on the air conditioning system to fight to replace the air. You might as well make the product in the Parking Lot.
Particle Sizing Means Greater Absorbency - Every Capsule Has the Same Ingredient Mix!
The key element of our manufacturing process is particle sizing. Simply put, all of the elements come in different particle sizes. Picture BBs, ping-pong
balls, golfballs, baseballs, softballs and basketballs. Improper mixing yields batches that have all of the basketballs balls at the top and the BBs at the
bottom. This would mean that each capsule has a different mix of ingredients (those early in the loading process - too many basketballs). We use cold process
pulverization to take all particles to the same size - everything is a BB. Smaller particle size means that the body assimilates the elements more readily.
Blending Process Reduces Oxidation - Capsules Have Longer Lasting Potency!
The product is then weighed and blended in a static and gravity free environment. This incorporates 100% batch involvement in the mixing process with no dead
spots. While in the blending process, the ambient air has been removed and replaced with stable nitrogen, which is heavier than air and reduces oxidation and
process contamination. The bulk material is weight validated to assure batch size compliance then formulation and quality control verified for batch
uniformity. The lab signs off on weight sheets to make sure that everything that was supposed to go in went in.
Capsules are Loaded One at A Time!
In the encapsulation department, pharmaceutical standard, GMP-certified machines employ the dose tamping method. Powder goes into the machine then is tamped
with pins into the capsule to the milligram of accuracy. This process is done one capsule at a time. During this process, at 5-minute intervals, a person will
test to validate quantities. The capsules are polished, dust is removed and they are hand inspected to see that they are not dented, scratched or broken. The
finished product is analyzed using high-pressure liquid chromatography, which creates a quantitative analysis of a compound. Then a mass spectrometer is used
to create a qualitative analysis. This creates the blue print that all future capsules must match.
Every Capsule We Make is Within a 1% Weight Tolerance - No Short Cuts!
At the end of the production process, checks are run to insure that the product weighs what it should. Industry standards allow +/- 5% failure tolerances. We
insist on a tolerance of +/- 1%. Many manufacturers cut corners here. It is in their interest to do so as 5% less material in each capsule adds up to serious
costs saved over time.
Acceptable Contamination Levels are 1/10th of Industry Standards!
Finally, a micro-biological test is done to make sure that the lab didn't contaminate the product. Vaxa's standards are 1000% higher than what the industry
allows.
In the end, each batch comes with a Certificate Of Analysis and has an FDA National Drug Control Number (NDC#) and Expiration Date stamped on the label. Once manufactured and packaged, the product is then tested by lot to ensure quality control, stability, consistency, weight, and content. Time series and dating analysis are performed twice on all lots, first at the lab and then when received as a finished product by Vaxa. Strict controls of inventory dating and ongoing computer evaluations are
performed daily while total rechecks of inventory are performed each month.
