Mark Glazier founded NutraBio Labs in 1996. Since the day he opened a “No Compromise” commitment to producing the most effective pharmaceutical grade supplements has been a priority. NutraBio started out like every other supplement brand, trusting contract manufacturers to produce their products. The first few years were a real education as Mark learned the gimmicks and scams the industry used to hype products and rip-off consumers. By 2002 Mark realized it was time for dramatic change. He started by firing his contract manufacturers and taking immediate control of quality by switching to manufacturing my own supplements. Mark is proud to say that NutraBio now manufactures their own products in their FDA registered and 21 CFR Part 111 regulated and inspected GMP facility in New Jersey. Mark banned the use of proprietary blends on NutraBio labels and committed to giving his customers full label disclosure, listing every single ingredient and dosage. He committed to formulas using only full therapeutic doses of all active ingredients. Mark banned all fillers and additives from NutraBio supplements and developed new processes for the manufacturing of capsules without excipients. Positive change has started in the sports supplement industry as the concept of removing proprietary blends and additives is now becoming popular marketing buzz. After so many years, Mark admits it is nice to see that other brands are following NutraBio’s lead.The SMARTER Team Training Audio Interview Series has been developed to share insights from some of the best in the industry.
