ORGANIC WHOLE-FOOD VITAMINS & MINERALS: A CLEAN LABEL APPROACH FOR SUPPLEMENT FORMULATION

The supplement industry is undergoing a profound transformation. Consumers and brands alike are moving away from synthetic isolates and toward natural, minimally processed ingredients that align with clean labels standards and sustainability goals. At LC Ingredients, we are proud to lead this shift by offering organic vitamins and minerals as whole-food complexes with strong and realiable partners.

What are Whole-Food Complexes?

Whole-food complexes are vitamins and minerals delivered in their original food matrix, accompanied by natural co-factors such as enzymes, fibers, and phytonutrients. This approach mirrors the way nutrients exist in nature, ensuring better compatibility with the human body.
Unlike conventional isolated compounds, our ingredients undergo minimal processing, which helps maintain their natural nutrient profile and enhances bioavailability.

Why Whole-Food matters in supplement formulation?

  • Bioavailability: Nutrients are absorbed more efficiently when combined with their natural co-factors.
  • Clean Label compliance: Short, transparent ingredient lists build consumer trust.
  • Sustainability: Organic farming and regenerative practices reduce environmental impact.
  • Ethical standards: 100% plant-based, vegan, and cruelty-free.

This is not just a trend, it is a science-driven approach that meets the growing demand for supplements rooted in real nutrition.

LC Ingredients commitment to traceability and quality

We believe that transparency is the foundation of trust. Our entire supply chain is governed by rigorous traceability systems:

  1. Plant material traceability
    Managed under the VCS-MPP scheme, a marker-assisted identity program that guarantees the authenticity of plant sources.
  2. Organic certification
    We follow the Indian Organic Program (NPOP), which is equivalent to EU organic standards. Every ingredient is fully traceable to the farm and tracked through Tracenet under NPOP.
  3. Quality systems
    Compliance with GMP, ISO, and a three-level traceability program:
    • Farm Trace (GACP-based)
    • Handling Trace
    • Manufacturing Trace

Vertically integrated and sustainable

Our manufacturing partner operates within an organic, biodynamic, and regenerative agricultural system, ensuring:

  • Stable and consistent supply chains
  • Collaboration with universities and microbiome research centers to improve yields while preserving plant life cycles
  • Patented processes and internal plant selection systems for superior quality

This integrated approach guarantees not only the purity and safety of our ingredients but also their sustainability and ethical sourcing.

We offer a portfolio of certified organic vitamins and minerals designed for brands that want to innovate with clean, plant-based formulations.
