Why umber

The color of earth and amber glass

Umber is the warm brown of raw earth, and of the amber glass that keeps the light off what is inside. What's inside, we keep in plain sight. We write down every ingredient and every amount, and we leave out what we cannot stand behind.

The index

What's inside

How to read a label

Every product page has a Supplement Facts panel laid out the same way. Four parts, read from top to bottom.

Supplement Facts

Serving Size 2 softgels

Servings Per Container 30

Supplement Facts of Astaxanthin Softgels
Amount Per Serving% Daily Value
Vitamin E15 mg100%
Astaxanthin complex24 mg†
Haematococcus pluvialis microalgae (naturally containing astaxanthin)
Black pepper extract (Piper nigrum)

† Daily Value not established.

Other ingredients: MCT oil (from coconut oil), softgel (gelatin, glycerin, natural carob, purified water).

Contains: Coconut.

As listed by the maker. Our own label is being finalized; the panel printed on your jar is the reference.

This panel is the one on Astaxanthin Softgels

  1. Serving size and servings

    The top of the panel tells you how much one serving is, 1 mL, 2 mL or 2 softgels, and how many servings the bottle or jar holds. Each of ours holds 30.

  2. Amount and % Daily Value

    Each line gives the amount in one serving. For vitamins and minerals, the % Daily Value compares that amount with the daily reference amount set by the FDA.

  3. The dagger and the blend

    A † means no Daily Value has been set for that ingredient, as with herbs. A proprietary blend gives one total for the whole blend and names every part in it, without the amount of each.

  4. Other ingredients and allergens

    Under the panel come the other ingredients, like the glycerin and water of a liquid base or the gelatin of a softgel, then the Contains line for allergens. Read both before your first bottle.

Every morning

One a day

One serving a day, the same way each morning, and a cupboard shelf to keep them on.

    Two softgels with a meal

    Two softgels with a glass of water and a plate of breakfast, taken whole. Golden for Oregano, a deep ruby red for Astaxanthin.

    A cool cupboard

    Away from the stove and the window, bottles upright and caps closed, on a shelf children cannot reach. The softgels stay out of the bathroom, where the steam gets in.

Questions

Before you order

Anything else? Write to us from our contact page. We reply within 2 business days.

How do I take them?

Once a day. Meadow, Black Walnut and Soursop Drops: shake gently, add the serving to a glass of water after your first meal of the day and drink it. Zeolite Drops: 1 mL in a full glass of water, at least 2 hours apart from medicines and other supplements. Softgels: 2 softgels with a glass of water and a meal, taken whole. Each product page has its own directions.

What are the drops made with, besides the herbs?

The maker lists vegetable glycerin and purified water as the base of Meadow Drops and Soursop Drops, with natural flavors, and citric acid in Meadow. We are confirming the full ingredient list of each bottle in writing, and we will say more only once we have it. Until then, the Other ingredients line under each panel is the reference.

Why amber glass?

Amber glass keeps the light off what is inside, and you can still see how much is left when you hold it up to the window. Our drops come in Boston-round bottles with a glass dropper, a black rubber bulb and a bronze collar. For the softgels we plan a wide amber glass jar with a black screw lid; their packaging is being finalized with the maker.

Are the softgels vegetarian?

No. Both are made of gelatin, glycerin and purified water, and the Astaxanthin softgel adds carob. We are confirming the gelatin source with the maker in writing and will add it to each page.

What does the dagger on the panel mean?

The † next to an amount means no Daily Value has been set for that ingredient. Daily Values exist for nutrients such as vitamins and minerals, not for herbs, so an herb's line shows its amount and a dagger. A proprietary blend shows one total for all its parts, with each part named.

Why don't you say what each product does?

Because we would rather show you what is in the bottle than make a promise we cannot stand behind. Every page has the full Supplement Facts as the maker lists them, the other ingredients, the directions and the cautions. These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

Where are they made?

They are imported, and orders ship from our partner warehouse overseas. We are confirming the country of manufacture with the maker in writing, and we will add it to each product page.

How long does a bottle last?

Every product holds 30 servings: 30 days at one serving a day. Meadow and Zeolite Drops hold 1 fl oz (30 mL), at 1 mL a day. Black Walnut and Soursop Drops hold 2 fl oz (60 mL), at 2 mL a day. The softgels come 60 to a container, at 2 softgels a day.

What about shipping and returns?

Shipping is included in the price; there is no separate delivery charge. Import duties and customs fees are paid by us. If a carrier ever asks you for any, contact us and we will cover it in full. Orders ship with tracking to the 50 US states and Washington, D.C.: allow about 8 to 15 business days from order confirmation. Unopened products with the seal intact can be returned within 30 days of delivery. For your safety and the next customer's, opened bottles and jars, or any product whose seal has been broken, cannot be returned for a change of mind. A product that arrives damaged, leaking, with a broken or missing seal, past its best-by date or wrong is replaced or refunded: send us a photo, there is nothing to mail back. You can cancel free of charge until your order ships. Returns, refunds and cancellations.

Should I talk to my doctor first?

Yes, if you are pregnant, trying to become pregnant or nursing, take any medication, have a medical condition or have a surgery coming, and before you take two of our products at the same time: bring both labels and ask your doctor or pharmacist. These are dietary supplements, not medicines, and they do not replace one. More on our Safe Use page.
