Green chemistry: for people & planet.
At Ingredients®, every is decision made with the health and wellbeing of people and planet in mind. Our dedication to Green Chemistry across all aspects of sourcing, formulation, and manufacturing means our products are both safe and sustainable.
We call our process ‘farm to bottle” and it’s one of the strictest auditing systems in the industry. Our 100% plant-based products are pure, potent and achieve a low carbon footprint.
We do this for ourselves, we do this for our families and we do this for the Earth.
Transparency: allowing you to judge.
Our formulas are pure and potent, each listed on the front of our bottles with exact percentages, an industry first.
The list of harsh chemicals you won’t find in our products is too long to list! There are thousands of ingredients commonly used in our industry that we consider toxic or simply ineffective. Instead of giving you a “Free from” list, we decided it would be simpler to place every ingredient and the exact formulation with percentages directly on the front of our bottles for all to see.
We believe we all have the right to know exactly what we put on, and in, our bodies so that we can judge each product for use.
Formulation: do more with less.
Our founder and Chief Scientist Myriam meticulously develops each our formulas in-house based on our commitment to simplicity and purity. As an early pioneer of Green Chemistry with over 25 years of experience, she is recognized as an authority in her field.
We believe that simplicity is the key to effectiveness. Our products are formulated using only 8 ingredients or less. They are 100% free of fillers, additives, petrochemicals and micro-plastics. Each of our carefully curated ingredients is a bio-active ingredient. All are backed by scientific research or recognized as a potent plant medicine by the pharmacopeia.
Too many ingredients in a product can dilute their potency, providing only micro-doses that render them virtually ineffective. By focusing on fewer ingredients, we ensure higher concentrations, delivering targeted benefits and maximizing efficacy.
Quality matters: we do the work.
Our founder Myriam is so obsessed with what goes into and onto our bodies that she named our brand Ingredients®. Therefore, unlike most, we take a hands-on approach to our sourcing. All of our ingredients are carefully selected from trusted producers around the world to ensure purity and freshness.
Myriam personally performs in person audits of each partner to look for sustainable, regenerative and ethical farming practices, organic and natural certifications, and traceability. We carefully scrutinize the chemical components and molecular makeup of each ingredient to ensure its safety and efficacy- avoiding toxic substances, fillers, preservatives, and solvents.
We utilize ingredients that are cold-pressed, unrefined, minimally processed and that adhere to standardized methods. This ensures the richness of their phytonutrients, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, fatty acids, amino acids and enzymes is consistent from batch to batch.

Manufacturing- safe and sustainable.
We rigorously assess our manufacturing partners, prioritizing quality and adherence to Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). Our products are made using cold processes to preserve the nutritional integrity of the vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and anti-oxidants inside our ingredients.
Cold processing maintains optimal potency while being environmentally friendly, reducing our carbon footprint. By eliminating water from our formulas and incorporating plant-based biotech and upcycled ingredients, we enhance both product concentration and sustainability efforts.
Our packaging is designed to minimize our environmental impact. We use materials that are recyclable and post-consumer recycled (PCR). We only use for glass, aluminum, Ecocert-certified plastic bottles and certified FSC/recycled folding cartons.
