For thousands of years, herbs have been used, studied and celebrated for their therapeutic properties. Yet, the rapid industrialization over the past two centuries has dramatically changed the natural environment and the methods for the cultivation of herbs. Long ago, herbs were cultivated organically because of a lack of industrial means. Industry has greatly increased the productivity of farmers, but herbs now face threats to their safety and integrity of herbs from exposure to chemicals and industrial runoff. This includes industrial waste released into the environment and the chemical pesticides and fertilizers used by farmers to promote better yields.

KP's top priority is guarding against these threats and ensuring the safety of our herbal products and we believe all herb vendors share this responsibility. KP's herbal products have passed through the TCM industry's most rigorous testing standards and inspection processes. Our herbs pass tests for the full range of today's contaminants. Tests include analysis for heavy metals, dangerous pesticides, sulfur dioxide, aflatoxins and aristolochic acid. These tests are integrated into our manufacturing process.

A Certificate of Analysis (COA) is produced with each batch of herbs. The COA documents the excellent quality of our herbal extracts. Only batches that fulfill the KP 'Golden Standard' are packaged and distributed. The Golden Standard is a collection of the strictest criteria of the safety standards from the U.S., Singapore, the E.U. and Japan. The high standard ensures KP's herbal products may be consumed safely across the world, making them truly world-class.

KP's products represent over a century of expertise in the selection of herbs. This experience is combined with a state-of-the-art quality control system at the forefront of scientific development.
