With over 50 years of experience in the nutritional supplement industry, we manufacture all our products in our FDA-registered, cGMP-compliant facility, ensuring strict quality control from start to finish.

Our product line includes a diverse range of vitamins, minerals, and condition-specific formulas designed to meet various health needs. We are committed to sustainability, utilizing eco-friendly packaging and supporting our local community in the Willamette Valley.

At Mt. Angel Vitamins, our mission is to simplify the wellness journey by offering straightforward, effective supplements that empower individuals to take charge of their health proactively.

Where are your products manufactured, and what quality standards do you follow?

At Mt. Angel Vitamins, all our products are proudly manufactured in the USA at our state-of-the-art facility in Mt. Angel, Oregon. As part of Highland Laboratories, we uphold the highest standards of quality and compliance to ensure every supplement meets your health and wellness needs.

Our facility is FDA-registered and operates under strict cGMP (Current Good Manufacturing Practices) guidelines, which guarantee meticulous oversight of the manufacturing process from start to finish. To further ensure quality and safety, our facility is audited by UL (Underwriters Laboratory), known for their stringent auditing protocols. In addition, we are audited by the FDA, Oregon Tilth for Organic Certification, the Oregon Department of Agriculture (ODA), and several other governmental and regulatory agencies.

Beyond compliance with these audits, we take extra steps to ensure the purity, potency, and safety of our products. All our raw materials and finished products are tested according to rigorous third-party testing guidelines. These independent tests verify that every ingredient meets stringent standards for quality, ensuring you can trust Mt. Angel Vitamins to deliver effective and reliable supplements.

By maintaining full control over our manufacturing processes and undergoing these thorough audits, we guarantee that our products not only meet but exceed the highest industry standards. Our commitment to quality is at the heart of everything we do.

Why Choose Mt. Angel Vitamins Over Another Brand?

Mt. Angel Vitamins is not just another supplement brand. What sets us apart is that we manufacture our own products—a distinction shared by fewer than 10% of supplement companies. This control over the entire process, from concept to finished product, gives us unparalleled ability to deliver quality, consistency, and trustworthiness. Here’s why this makes a difference:

1. Total Control Over Quality

When you manufacture your own products, you control every step of the process. Unlike brands that outsource to third-party manufacturers, we personally oversee ingredient sourcing, formulation, production, and testing. This allows us to:

  • Set the Strictest Specifications
    We write our own manufacturing specifications, ensuring our products meet tighter standards than those of generic contract manufacturers. This means we never compromise on quality or accept shortcuts.
  • Choose Premium Ingredients
    We hand-select non-GMO, high-potency ingredients that are pure and effective, without being constrained by third-party manufacturing limitations.

2. A Higher Standard of Consistency

Many brands rely on multiple manufacturers, leading to variations in product quality, even for the same supplement. At Mt. Angel Vitamins, everything is made under one roof, ensuring:

  • Consistency in Every Batch
    Our manufacturing processes are standardized and tightly controlled, so the product you trust today will perform the same way every time you buy it.
  • Full Traceability
    From raw materials to finished supplements, we track every component, giving you peace of mind about what you’re putting into your body.

3. Fast, Innovative Problem Solving

When you control manufacturing, you’re agile. We can make immediate adjustments based on feedback, scientific advancements, or supply chain changes. Other brands relying on third-party manufacturers may face delays, limited options, or inflated costs.

4. True Accountability

At Mt. Angel Vitamins, the buck stops with us. If a question arises about quality or performance, there’s no middleman to shift the responsibility. With complete ownership of the manufacturing process, we’re accountable directly to you, our customer.

5. Uncompromising Integrity

Many companies must compromise on product design due to cost-saving measures imposed by third-party manufacturers. Because we make our own products, we prioritize efficacy over profit margins. This means:

  • No Unnecessary Fillers
    Every ingredient in our products serves a purpose. We’re not forced to include unnecessary additives just to meet a manufacturer's bulk requirements.
  • Optimized Formulas
    We tailor our formulations to deliver the best health outcomes, rather than being limited by what’s easy or cheap for a third-party facility to produce.

6. Trusted by Auditors and Regulators

Owning our facility allows us to meet the highest standards of compliance. We undergo regular audits by UL (Underwriters Laboratory), the FDA, Oregon Tilth for Organic Certification, and the Oregon Department of Agriculture (ODA). These certifications reinforce our dedication to delivering trustworthy products.

7. Made With Care, By People Who Care

We’ve been part of the Mt. Angel, Oregon, community for over 50 years, employing 50 local team members who take pride in crafting exceptional products. Every supplement is made with care and a deep commitment to improving your health.

But I Heard Supplements Are Unregulated? Can You Explain?

It’s a common misconception that dietary supplements are completely unregulated. While supplements are not subject to the same pre-market approval process as pharmaceutical drugs, they are still regulated by the FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) and held to strict standards under the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA) of 1994. Here’s how the process works and how Mt. Angel Vitamins goes above and beyond:

1. Oversight Under the Law

Under DSHEA, supplement manufacturers must ensure that their products are safe, their claims are truthful, and they comply with strict labeling guidelines. This means:

  • Ingredient Safety: All ingredients used in supplements must be deemed safe for consumption.
  • Transparent Labeling: The FDA requires that product labels clearly list all ingredients and include accurate information about the supplement’s contents.
  • Prohibited Claims: Manufacturers cannot make unfounded claims, such as curing or preventing diseases.

While the FDA does not pre-approve supplements, it does have the authority to enforce actions against unsafe or misbranded products.

2. Rigorous Standards at Mt. Angel Vitamins

At Mt. Angel Vitamins, we take compliance and quality far beyond the minimum requirements:

  • Manufactured in FDA-Registered Facilities
    All our products are made in our FDA-registered, cGMP-compliant facility in Mt. Angel, Oregon, where we follow the Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMPs) to ensure safety, purity, and efficacy.
  • Third-Party Testing
    Our supplements undergo stringent third-party testing for potency, purity, and contaminants, ensuring you receive the highest-quality products.
  • Regular Audits by Regulatory Bodies
    We are regularly audited by organizations such as UL (Underwriters Laboratory), the FDA, Oregon Tilth for Organic Certification, and the Oregon Department of Agriculture (ODA).

3. Why It Seems "Unregulated"

This misconception may stem from the fact that supplements are treated as a category of food rather than drugs, which means:

  • No Pre-Market Approval
    Supplements don’t require FDA approval before hitting the market, unlike pharmaceuticals. However, manufacturers are legally responsible for ensuring product safety and accuracy.
  • After-Market Enforcement
    The FDA monitors supplements once they are on the market and takes action against products that violate regulations, such as being unsafe or making false claims.

4. How Mt. Angel Vitamins Builds Trust

We understand that supplement quality can vary widely in the market, which is why we go to great lengths to set ourselves apart:

  • Transparency You Can Trust: Every label accurately reflects what’s inside—no proprietary blends, no hidden ingredients.
  • Uncompromising Quality Control: Because we manufacture our own products, we can guarantee oversight from start to finish, ensuring the highest standards of safety and consistency.
  • Science-Backed Formulations: We work with experts to develop supplements based on the latest research, so you can feel confident in their efficacy.

The Bottom Line

Supplements are regulated, but the quality of those regulations largely depends on the integrity and practices of the manufacturer. At Mt. Angel Vitamins, we take pride in going above and beyond what’s required, delivering supplements that are safe, effective, and crafted with care. When you choose us, you’re choosing a brand that’s committed to transparency, compliance, and your health.

Do You Use Manufacturing or Expiration Dates? And Why? How Do I Know How Long a Supplement Is Good For?

t Mt. Angel Vitamins, we primarily display manufacturing dates on our products. However, for certain products, we may use an expiration date, which will be clearly marked with "EXP" before the date on the label. This dual approach is part of our commitment to transparency and regulatory compliance. Here’s why and how it works:

1. Why Manufacturing Dates Are Used

Our decision to primarily use manufacturing dates aligns with FDA regulations and reflects our dedication to producing safe, effective products. According to 21 CFR Part 111, expiration dates require extensive stability studies under highly controlled conditions. While we have over 50 years of historical data to confirm the stability of our products, we prioritize regulatory compliance and integrity over unsupported marketing claims. Using manufacturing dates ensures:

  • Regulatory Integrity: We comply with the FDA’s strict cGMP guidelines.
  • Transparency: Manufacturing dates provide a clear timeline of when the product was made.

2. When Expiration Dates Are Used

In certain cases—such as products with unique stability profiles or shorter shelf lives—we will include an expiration date. These dates are backed by rigorous stability testing and provide a specific timeframe for optimal use. When an expiration date is included, it will be notated with "EXP" before the date, making it easy to identify.

3. How to Determine Shelf Life

Both manufacturing and expiration dates help guide the freshness and effectiveness of our products:

  • Manufacturing Date: Use this to gauge the product’s age and freshness.
  • Expiration Date (EXP): For products marked with an expiration date, use the date to determine the final day of optimal potency and safety.

Regardless of the date format, proper storage is key. We recommend:

  • Storing in a Cool, Dry Place: Avoid heat, moisture, and direct sunlight.
  • Using Products Promptly: Most supplements remain effective for 2-3 years from the manufacturing date when stored correctly.

4. Why Our Approach Stands Out

Many companies include unsupported expiration dates for marketing purposes. At Mt. Angel Vitamins, we choose integrity. By using manufacturing dates and, when appropriate, well-supported expiration dates, we:

  • Ensure Compliance: Adhering to FDA regulations is our priority.
  • Promote Transparency: You always know how fresh your product is.
  • Demonstrate Responsibility: We put your safety and trust above shortcuts.

The Mt. Angel Vitamins Commitment

Whether we use a manufacturing date or an expiration date, our focus is always on providing supplements that are safe, effective, and trustworthy. If you see "EXP" on your product, it signifies that we’ve conducted extensive stability testing to ensure its potency and safety through that date. With Mt. Angel Vitamins, you can trust that your supplements are crafted with care and built to support your health with uncompromising quality.

Are Your Supplements Non-GMO and Free From Artificial Additives?

At Mt. Angel Vitamins, we are deeply committed to creating supplements that prioritize your health and wellness. That’s why we ensure that our products are crafted with the highest-quality ingredients and are free from unnecessary or harmful additives. Here’s what you can expect:

1. Non-GMO Ingredients

We prioritize using non-GMO ingredients in our formulations, ensuring that our products meet the highest standards of purity and safety. Non-GMO means:

  • No Genetically Modified Organisms: We avoid ingredients that have been genetically engineered to ensure natural integrity.
  • Transparency You Can Trust: Our commitment to non-GMO ingredients reflects our dedication to providing clean, honest supplements.

2. Free From Artificial Additives

We believe in crafting supplements that are as close to nature as possible. That means avoiding:

  • Artificial Colors: No synthetic dyes are used in our products.
  • Artificial Flavors: We use natural flavors or none at all to keep our products clean and effective.
  • Artificial Preservatives: Our products are formulated to remain stable and effective without the need for unnecessary chemical preservatives.

3. Thoughtful, Clean Formulations

In addition to being non-GMO and free from artificial additives, we carefully select each ingredient in our supplements to provide targeted benefits without including anything unnecessary. Our products are made with:

  • Natural Ingredients: Whenever possible, we source ingredients derived from natural, plant-based, or organic sources.
  • Clean Fillers and Excipients: We use minimal and purposeful excipients to ensure product stability and effectiveness.

4. Rigorous Testing and Compliance

Every ingredient we use is rigorously tested for purity and quality. Our manufacturing process ensures:

  • Third-Party Testing: All raw materials are tested to confirm they meet our strict non-GMO and purity standards.
  • Compliance With Regulations: We adhere to FDA cGMP guidelines to ensure the highest safety and quality for every product.

The Mt. Angel Difference

When you choose Mt. Angel Vitamins, you’re choosing supplements crafted with care, integrity, and your well-being in mind. Our commitment to non-GMO ingredients and clean formulations ensures you can trust that you’re getting a product free from artificial additives—just pure, effective nutrition to support your health.

How Do I Determine the Right Dosage for My Needs?

Finding the correct dosage for your health and wellness goals is essential for getting the most out of your supplements. At Mt. Angel Vitamins, we aim to make this process as simple and effective as possible. Here’s how to determine the right dosage for your needs:

1. Follow the Product Label

Each Mt. Angel Vitamins product includes a Recommended Dosage on the label, based on clinical research and expert formulation. This guideline provides the optimal amount for most people to experience the intended benefits. Be sure to:

  • Read the Label Carefully: Follow the suggested serving size and any specific usage instructions.
  • Note Special Instructions: Some supplements may need to be taken with food, water, or at certain times of the day for best results.

2. Consider Your Health Goals

Your individual health needs may influence the ideal dosage. For example:

  • General Wellness: Stick to the recommended serving size for maintenance and overall health.
  • Targeted Health Concerns: You may need higher or lower doses depending on specific health goals, such as boosting immunity, supporting joint health, or managing stress.

3. Consult With a Healthcare Professional

While our labels provide general guidance, your specific circumstances might require personalized advice. We recommend:

  • Talking to Your Doctor: Especially if you have pre-existing health conditions, are pregnant or nursing, or take prescription medications.
  • Speaking With a Nutritionist or Dietitian: They can help assess your dietary intake and identify gaps that supplements can fill.

4. Age, Weight, and Lifestyle Matter

Factors such as age, weight, activity level, and diet can also affect how your body processes supplements. Adjustments may be necessary for:

  • Children and Adolescents: Always consult a pediatrician before giving supplements to kids.
  • Seniors: Nutritional needs may change with age, requiring adjustments in dosage.
  • Active Individuals: Higher activity levels might increase your body’s demand for certain nutrients.

5. Start Small, Monitor Results

If you’re new to a supplement, it’s a good idea to:

  • Start With the Lowest Dose: This minimizes the chance of side effects and helps you gauge your body’s response.
  • Monitor Your Progress: Pay attention to how you feel and any changes in your health or energy levels.

The Mt. Angel Difference

At Mt. Angel Vitamins, we prioritize transparency and trust, ensuring all our products come with clear dosage instructions tailored to maximize their benefits. If you’re ever in doubt, our knowledgeable customer support team is here to help answer your questions or guide you toward the right resources.

Can I Take Your Supplements Alongside My Current Medications?

It’s important to ensure that any supplements you take are safe and compatible with your current medications. At Mt. Angel Vitamins, we are committed to providing clear, helpful guidance to support your health and wellness. Here’s what you need to know:

1. Consult With Your Healthcare Provider

The most critical step before starting any new supplement is to consult your healthcare provider. They can:

  • Assess Potential Interactions: Certain ingredients in supplements can interact with prescription or over-the-counter medications.
  • Provide Personalized Advice: Your doctor or pharmacist understands your medical history and can help determine if a supplement is right for you.
  • Adjust Dosages if Necessary: They may recommend adjusting your supplement dosage to complement your current medications safely.

2. Common Interactions to Be Aware Of

While most of our supplements are safe for general use, some nutrients or herbal ingredients could potentially interact with medications. For example:

  • Blood Thinners: Ingredients like vitamin K, fish oil, or certain herbal supplements may affect blood clotting.
  • Blood Pressure Medications: Some supplements, such as potassium or licorice root, might influence blood pressure levels.
  • Medications That Affect Absorption: Calcium or iron supplements may interact with medications like antibiotics or thyroid treatments, reducing their effectiveness if taken together.

Always inform your healthcare provider of any supplements you are taking or plan to start.

3. General Guidelines for Safe Use

While individual recommendations will depend on your situation, the following tips can help:

  • Follow Suggested Dosages: Never exceed the recommended serving size without consulting your doctor.
  • Separate Timing of Doses: If a supplement could interact with a medication, take them at different times of the day as advised by your healthcare provider.
  • Monitor for Side Effects: If you notice unusual symptoms after starting a supplement, stop using it and contact your doctor immediately.

4. Transparency in Our Products

At Mt. Angel Vitamins, we are committed to providing detailed and transparent labeling. Every product includes a comprehensive list of ingredients to help you make informed decisions. If you have specific concerns about interactions, our customer support team is happy to provide additional information to share with your healthcare provider.

The Mt. Angel Difference

We take your health seriously. By manufacturing our own supplements and adhering to strict quality standards, we ensure that our products are as safe and effective as possible. However, individual needs and medical conditions vary, and working with your healthcare provider is the best way to ensure supplements fit into your routine safely.

Taking Mt. Angel Vitamins alongside your medications can be a great way to support your health, but always prioritize safety and personalized advice. When in doubt, consult your doctor and trust us to provide the quality and transparency you deserve.

How Should I Store My Supplements to Maintain Their Potency?

Proper storage of your supplements is essential to ensure they remain effective and safe to use throughout their shelf life. At Mt. Angel Vitamins, we take great care to produce high-quality supplements, and following these simple storage guidelines will help maintain their potency and freshness.

1. Store in a Cool, Dry Place

Most supplements should be stored in an environment that is:

  • Cool: Ideally, keep them at room temperature, between 60–75°F (15–24°C). Avoid storing supplements in areas that experience temperature fluctuations, such as near ovens, stoves, or heat vents.
  • Dry: Humidity can degrade the quality of many ingredients. Keep supplements in a dry place, away from bathrooms, kitchens, or other areas with high moisture levels.

2. Avoid Direct Sunlight

Exposure to direct sunlight or UV rays can break down the active ingredients in your supplements over time. Always store them in their original packaging and keep them out of direct light.

3. Keep Supplements in Their Original Containers

Our packaging is designed to protect supplements from environmental factors such as air, moisture, and light. To preserve potency:

  • Don’t Transfer to Other Containers: Doing so may expose the supplements to air and reduce their effectiveness.
  • Reseal Properly After Use: Ensure lids and caps are tightly closed after each use to prevent exposure to air and contaminants.

4. Refrigeration (When Recommended)

Some supplements, such as probiotics or certain liquid vitamins, may require refrigeration to maintain their potency. If refrigeration is needed, it will be clearly noted on the product label. Always follow these specific instructions for best results.

5. Keep Out of Reach of Children and Pets

While this doesn’t affect potency, it’s crucial to store supplements in a safe location to prevent accidental ingestion by children or pets.

6. Pay Attention to the Manufacturing Date

While proper storage helps maintain potency, supplements are best used within their recommended shelf life. Refer to the manufacturing date on our labels and consider typical guidelines for shelf stability, which is generally 2–3 years when stored correctly.

The Mt. Angel Difference

At Mt. Angel Vitamins, we design our products with durability and quality in mind, using premium materials and airtight packaging to extend shelf life. Following the above storage recommendations will ensure that your supplements stay as effective as the day you opened them.

Are Your Products Tested for Allergens, and How Can I Find Allergen Information?

At Mt. Angel Vitamins, your health and safety are our top priorities. We take allergens seriously and have rigorous protocols in place to ensure transparency and confidence in our products. Here’s what you need to know about allergen testing and how to find allergen information for our supplements.

1. Allergen Testing and Safety

Our products are tested to identify and minimize the risk of allergens. This includes:

  • Ingredient Screening: We carefully review all raw materials for potential allergens before they enter our facility.
  • Cross-Contamination Prevention: Our manufacturing facility follows strict protocols to prevent cross-contact between products with and without allergens.
  • Testing for Common Allergens: When applicable, products are tested for common allergens such as gluten, dairy, soy, and nuts to verify their safety.

2. Allergen Information on Labels

Transparency is key, and we clearly list any potential allergens on our product labels. This includes:

  • Allergen Disclosures: Under the “Supplement Facts” or “Ingredients” sections, you’ll find clear disclosures about the presence of allergens like gluten, soy, dairy, nuts, shellfish, or eggs.
  • Advisory Statements: For products manufactured in facilities that handle allergens, advisory statements (e.g., “Produced in a facility that processes tree nuts”) will also be included when relevant.

3. Finding Allergen Information Online

We make it easy to access allergen information through our website:

  • Product Pages: Each product page includes a detailed list of ingredients and allergen warnings in the “Supplement Facts” section.

How Long Does It Typically Take to Notice Benefits From Your Supplements?

At Mt. Angel Vitamins, we understand that it’s natural to want to see results quickly. However, supplements are designed to support your long-term health, and their benefits often develop gradually over time. Here’s what you need to know about how supplements work and when you might notice their effects.

1. Supplements Are Preventative, Not Reactive

Unlike medications that are designed to treat acute symptoms, supplements support overall wellness and help maintain your body’s systems. Think of them as an investment in your future health, similar to maintaining your car or planting a tree. They work quietly in the background to:

  • Fill nutritional gaps.
  • Support long-term health goals like stronger immunity, better digestion, or reduced inflammation.
  • Build resilience over time, rather than providing immediate fixes.

2. Benefits Vary by Supplement Type

The timeframe for experiencing the effects of supplements depends on the specific product and its purpose:

  • Nutrients With Cumulative Benefits:
  • Condition-Specific Supplements: Products aimed at short-term relief, like melatonin for sleep or magnesium for muscle cramps, may provide quicker results.

3. Consistency Is Key

To see the full benefits of supplements, consistency is essential. Think of them as part of a long-term wellness strategy:

  • Take Daily: Regular use helps build up nutrient levels in your body over time.
  • Follow Recommended Dosages: Avoid skipping doses or taking more than advised, as this could delay or diminish results.

Stopping supplements prematurely may interrupt the progress they’re making, even if the benefits aren’t immediately noticeable.

4. Avoid the False Cause Fallacy

As noted in The False Cause Fallacy (from the document provided), testing supplements by stopping them to "see if they work" is misguided. Much like sunscreen prevents long-term skin damage or brushing your teeth avoids cavities, supplements work preventatively. Just because you don’t feel dramatic changes doesn’t mean they’re ineffective. Their success is often in what you don’t experience—like deficiencies or related health issues.

The Mt. Angel Difference

At Mt. Angel Vitamins, we design supplements with proven ingredients to support long-term wellness. Our commitment to quality ensures that you’re investing in products that deliver cumulative, lasting benefits. Remember, health is a journey, not a sprint, and supplements are your steady partners along the way.

If you’re unsure how a supplement fits into your health goals, our team is here to help answer your questions and guide you toward building a consistent routine for optimal results.
