What is your 3rd party testing qualifications?
Our Testing Process: What’s not in our products can be just as important as what is in them. That’s why our products go through four rounds of advanced analytical testing at state-of-the-art labs. Many competitors test only once or twice; our testing includes: raw materials and components, in-process testing, finished product testing, and stability testing. Every single batch of our products is tested for precision, potency, and purity, including contaminants like microbes, heavy metals, pathogens, and pesticides in ISO-certified labs. Annually, we screen all products for supplement fact verification and allergens (including gluten, diary, peanut, and soy). Any batch that doesn’t meet our standards is rejected.

Our Testing Facilities: We use comprehensive third-party testing by certified, unbiased, accredited United States laboratories that follow quality standards set forth by the most prestigious national and international organizations.

Our third-party laboratories are highly respected within the industry. A few of the labs that we work with are Contract Testing Laboratories of America (CTLA), Eurofins, and Summit Nutritional Laboratories.

Our Ingredient Sourcing Process: Like our manufacturers, all of our suppliers must pass a stringent vetting process in order to work with us. We don’t use mysterious masking agents, but instead prioritize quality and pour R&D time into getting it right using real food ingredients, natural flavors, and safe sweeteners.

Do you have any gluten-free products?
Our products are all tested for gluten (with the exception of our regular Pancake & Waffle mixes which contains gluten) and have passed testing as gluten-free. Our Super Greens Mix include the allergen wheat from wheat grass which is naturally gluten-free and has passed gluten testing. At this time, our products are not certified gluten-free.

Do you have products that are dairy-free?
Do you have products that are plant-based?
We do have Vegan Protein Powder in both Chocolate and Vanilla that would fit perfectly with a plant-based diet! Our Vegan Protein contains four different protein sources: hemp protein isolate, pumpkin seed protein, flaxseed & chia seed. Our Super Greens Mix, Energy Drink Mix, Hydrate Drink Mix, Antioxidants, and Flavored Nut Butters are also plant-based and do not naturally contain sources of gluten or dairy.

Can I purchase your products locally?
Our website locations page has an up-to-date list of all retail locations. We’re currently in over 1,000 stores in the US and Canada, and adding more all the time! We recommend calling the locations near you to ensure the products you’re looking for are in stock.

Can your products be mixed and matched together?
Heck yes! In fact, we highly encourage you to stack our CSE supplements together to make them even better!

Is there a certain time I should take my supplements during the day?
What’s most important is taking supplements on a regular schedule. Check out “Ideal Nutrient Timing” blog post to read how our founders, Erika & JJ, use them throughout their day. Some of our product labels also have instructions on when is best to take your supplements.

What is “macro based”?
Our entrees in our app are “Macro Based”, meaning that recipe has a balanced macronutrient ratio of 40% carbs, 30% protein and 30% fat. This 40/30/30 approach has been proven time and time again to offer balance and lifelong sustainability. The most beautiful thing about following the cleansimpleeats lifestyle (minus the food itself) is the fact that you can eat like this forever! Our meal plans were designed to help you AND your family gain lasting healthy habits in the kitchen and a positive relationship with food.
