About Life Extension

Established in 1980, the Life Extension Foundation is a 501 (c) (3) non profit organization dedicated to finding new scientific methods for eradicating old age, disease and death. The largest organization of its kind in the world, the Life Extension Foundation has always been at the forefront of discovering new scientific breakthroughs for use in developing novel disease prevention and treatment protocols to improve the quality and length of human life. Through its private funding of research programs aimed at identifying and developing new therapies to slow and even reverse the aging process, the Life Extension Foundation seeks to reduce, and ultimately eliminate, such age-related killers as heart disease, stroke, cancer and Alzheimer’s disease. The Life Extension Foundation is a world leader and innovator in the dietary supplement market. They market only the highest quality, science-based supplements, offering a wide range of vitamins, herbal extracts, minerals and hormones, including many unique formulations.

Why Choose Life Extension Supplements

Choosing a supplement supplier is one of the most important decisions a consumer makes. As a health conscious individual, you probably will be taking supplements and other health products for the rest of your life, so quality should be an issue. Life Extension markets pharmaceutical-grade and pharmaceutical-potency ingredients from such suppliers as Roche and BASF.

Life Extension supplements maintain the strictest standards, voluntarily following Good Manufacturing Practices, which set specific criteria for essential aspects of the manufacturing process such as cleanliness, record retention, and waste disposal. One might think that all supplement companies have to comply with these practices. Under current law, however, the makers of dietary supplements are exempt from GMP. Because compliance with these standards is expensive, many companies are unwilling to conform to the requirements voluntarily. Life Extension's commitment to excellence demands that it meets all GMP criteria.

Another concern is whether dietary supplements contain all of the active ingredients listed on the label. This apprehension is based on well-publicized analyses of commercial supplements showing considerable variation in ingredient quality and quantity.

When you purchase Life Extension products from DR Vitamin Solutions, you have assurance that you are getting what you pay for. To ensure such high quality, Life Extension operates a top-notch testing facility. Many companies avoid analyzing their products for purity and potency so they can fatten the bottom line. By contrast, Life Extension contributed to a $2.5 million laboratory that is the best among supplement companies.

With 2,500 square feet of space and the latest in technology, the laboratory is committed to ensuring that all of the raw materials used in its products meet exacting standards. The lab also does extensive testing of supplements during the manufacturing process to ensure that they conform to specified criteria, and follows this up with further analysis of the finished product. This results in a Certificate of Analysis for every product that Life Extension markets and will send to you at your request.

When you purchase from DR Vitamin Solutions, your supplement sales also help fund anti-aging research through contributions to the Life Extension Foundation, a non-profit organization founded in 1980 that seeks to radically extend the health human lifespan by funding scientific research and developing medical therapies to prevent and treat aging and age-related disease. Since 1997, this member-based organization has provided over $21 million in anti-aging and cutting-edge medical research conducted by scientist at some of the most well-respected institutions in the United States - the University of California at Riverside, the National Institute of Aging, and the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, to name a few.
