Health Canada's solution to how to protect yourself

Effective as of January 2004 Health Canada has imposed a new set of regulations known as the NHP (Natural Health Product) regulations.

As of January 2006 this set of standards will be strictly enforced to protect the public from fraudulent and deceptive manufacturing and reselling practices by anybody of the supplement industry.
With the objective of protecting the consumer, these obligations require supplement manufacturers and resellers to:

1. Apply for a manufacturing site license

To obtain a manufacturing site license it is necessary to build a quality assurance system that complies with Health Canada's GMP standards.

In strict accordance with this philosophy MVP Laboratories has created Standard Operating Procedures (SOP’s), developed by its QA (Quality Assurance) person. This QA person's qualifications have been recognized by the NHPD (Natural Health Product Directorate) as possessing the required academic training and experience.

2. Apply for product NPN (Natural Product Number)

To receive Natural Product Numbers each product sold by MVP Laboratories must receive licenses. Each license corresponds to a unique Natural Product Number (NPN) issued by the NHPD .

Guidelines which must be followed in order to obtain NPN’s
(Natural Product Numbers)

a) Report for safety - This is a document which must be produced by MVP Laboratories to prove that its products are completely safe for human consumption. It will include the necessary cautions and warnings if applicable.

b) Report for evidence - This is the recommended use and purpose, of the products produced by MVP Laboratories.

Thus it is MVP Laboratories’s mandate to remain in conformity.
