About us
DSTest Laboratories were founded in 2014 to help manufacturers of natural ingredients, nutraceuticals, and dietary supplements to produce and certify the potency (biological activity) of their high-quality products.
The market for human and pet nutraceuticals and supplements is enormous with a wide range of claims for health benefits. By using proper rigorous scientific testing, we will certify that your claim substantiation is valid and your products truly achieve the level of biological activity and health benefits that customers expect.

DSTest Laboratories are independently evaluating the potency (activity) of dietary supplements on the US market. By identifying the most effective dietary supplements from numerous retailers we are helping consumers find the most valuable brands and dietary supplement products. Since dietary supplements of the same brand have different efficacy, we are identifying the best existing inexpensive and functional dietary supplements on the current market.
We have recently evaluated 41 different turmeric/curcumin supplements, from major brick and on-line retailers. While all of these retailers claim a “Healthy Inflammation response” or a “Support of Antioxidant Health”, some of the tested brands do not show any of the claimed effects. We are currently evaluating anti-obesity dietary supplements, for the “Inhibiting fat deposition” claim, and Reishi mushroom supplements for the “Healthy Aging and Longevity” claim.
Identification of the different brands of efficient probiotics will be publicized in the fall 2017.
