Welcome to Emerson
Quality Program EQP®

As a leader in supplement quality,
Emerson Ecologics does the work
so you can recommend with
confidence and ease.

What Is EQP®?

Emerson Ecologics' standards require that ALL distributed brands undergo a quality assessment, but our quality goes far beyond that. With EQP, we invite brands to open their doors on confidential manufacturing processes to have our team carefully and comprehensively evaluate them. Depending on their quality practices, brands may qualify for an EQP Silver or EQP Gold Partner level.

Emerson is proud of our EQP Silver and Gold Partners and verify that manufacturing processes meet or exceed federal dietary supplement cGMPs, including:

Smart, clinically oriented product formulations
Tight manufacturing quality controls
Raw ingredient and finished product testing to assure product and ingredient quality

The Process

Through extensive document assessments, on-site audits, and independent finished product testing, EQP helps ensure that everything is in place for EQP partner brands to produce the best products available for practitioners and their patients.

We also test select EQP partner products on a quarterly basis, right off of our shelves, with independent, qualified laboratories to continually confirm the quality we have come to expect from these brands.

Other companies/distributors may claim that they have the best quality, but don't be fooled by imitations- only Emerson has the longstanding history and expertise and only Emerson has EQP.

At Emerson, we focus on supplement quality so you can focus on your patients.

A Conversation on Quality – 3 Things New Patients Need to Know

When practitioners are asked why they sell dietary supplements to patients, the number one response is that they want patients to have access to high-quality products. For patients however, they rank convenience above all else.

This discrepancy between practitioner and patient beliefs about the importance of quality may explain why so many patients end up going elsewhere for refills and ongoing purchases. If patients could understand the importance of product quality on the very first visit, they just might become loyal customers for life.

The Importance of Quality Control for Hemp Products

Your patients may be interested in Broad Spectrum Hemp and CBD products, especially with how popular they’ve become in the last two years. Now that there’s an incredible amount of distribution companies and suppliers, it’s harder than ever to know which ones to choose from. Our EQP standards can help point you in the right direction of high-quality brands. Given the lack of research, evidence and standardization it’s important to understand the multifaceted problems with Hemp and CBD products. Our MedEd team has broken it down and provided more information here.

Practitioners on Quality

“I prefer not selling supplements from my office and yet part of the nutritional protocols for my clients usually includes some supplements. I suggest they get them from Wellevate as they will get a good discount which I’m happy to give them, and also good quality, since I research each specific supplement to make sure there are no fillers that could be problematic. I write out the supplement and its code and then set them up with a Wellevate account and they can go online and easily order. It works well.”
