Certificate of analysis
Calm+Clear certificate of analysis
Current published lot NBE260423
This certificate measures two of the vitamins on the label and screens the blend for what should not be there.
This page is our transcription of the certificate. It is not the certificate. Every figure below is copied from the report issued by Ethos Analytics Laboratory. The complete unaltered document is the record, and we will send a copy to anyone who asks for it.
The certificate states that reports may not be reproduced with alterations of any kind, so we publish it whole rather than cropping or restyling it.

What was tested?
| Analysis | Method | Date tested | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vitamins | HPLC | 11 May 2026 | Complete |
| Heavy metals | ICP-MS | 7 May 2026 | Pass |
| Microbiological | Petrifilm/qPCR | 8 May 2026 | Pass |
Did the tested vitamins meet the label?
Both came in above it. Vitamin A measured 136.28 mcg RAE per serving against a label figure of 122, and folate measured 711.03 mcg DFE against 680. These two are the only analytes this report checks against a label specification.
| Analyte | Result | Specification | LOQ (ppm) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vitamin A (beta-carotene) | 136.28 mcg RAE per serving | 122 mcg RAE per serving | 10 |
| Vitamin B9 (folate) | 711.03 mcg DFE per serving | 680 mcg DFE per serving | 10 |
These two vitamins are the only analytes on this report measured against a label specification. Both came in above the amount the label states.
How did it do on heavy metals?
All four passed. Arsenic, cadmium and lead were measurable and came in under specification, and mercury was below the limit of quantification.
| Analyte | Result (ppm) | LOQ (ppm) | LOD (ppm) | Limit (mcg/day) | Result |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Arsenic | 0.038 | 0.010 | 0.005 | 15 | Pass |
| Cadmium | 0.027 | 0.010 | 0.005 | 5 | Pass |
| Lead | 0.049 | 0.010 | 0.005 | 5 | Pass |
| Mercury | <LOQ | 0.010 | 0.005 | 15 | Pass |
LOQ is the limit of quantification, the lowest concentration the method can reliably measure. A result below it means the analyte was not detected at a measurable level.
How did it do on microbiology?
Everything passed. Each organism screened came in at or under its limit, and the pathogens tested were not detected at all.
| Organism | Result | Limit | Pass or fail |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total aerobic plate | <20 CFU/g | <100,000 CFU/g | Pass |
| Coliform | <20 CFU/g | <100 CFU/g | Pass |
| Yeast | <20 CFU/g | <1,000 CFU/g | Pass |
| Mold | <20 CFU/g | <1,000 CFU/g | Pass |
| Escherichia coli | Negative/10g | Negative/10g | Pass |
| Salmonella | Negative/10g | Negative/10g | Pass |
| Staphylococcus aureus | Negative/10g | Negative/10g | Pass |
The certificate also records that the sample was inspected and found free from visual mold, mildew and foreign matter.
Who did the testing?
| Laboratory | Ethos Analytics Laboratory |
| Address | 3020 E Camelback Rd STE 397, Phoenix, AZ 85016 |
| Laboratory director | Noel Samsum |
| ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation number | 117798 |
| Licence number | 000026LRCND60176649 |
| Standards statement | Testing procedures, equipment calibration and maintenance are carried out to ISO/IEC 17025:2017 standards |
The certificate states conformance to ISO/IEC 17025:2017 and carries the accreditation number above. It does not name an accrediting body, so we describe testing as carried out to those standards rather than describing the laboratory as accredited.
What this certificate does and does not establish
What it establishes
- Two label vitamins were measured and both came in above their stated amounts. Vitamin A read 136.28 mcg RAE per serving against 122, and vitamin B9 read 711.03 mcg DFE per serving against 680.
- The lot is clean on the contaminants tested. All four heavy metals sat under their USP limits and every microbiological result passed specification.
What it does not
- It does not quantify the other ingredients in the formula. Vitamin A and vitamin B9 are the only two analytes on this report measured against a label specification.
- It carries no identity test. There is no reference standard comparison on this certificate, unlike the FTIR identity work on our saffron lots.
- It says nothing about what any ingredient does for anyone. That is a question for clinical research, not a laboratory certificate.
Check your own bottle
The lot number is printed on your bottle. If it reads NBE260423, this is the certificate covering what is inside it.
This page always carries the current published lot. If your bottle shows a different number, it is from a batch we have since replaced here, and you can request that batch's certificate at hello@numilove.com or scan the code on the bottle.

This page always carries the lot we are shipping now. When a new batch is tested we replace the figures above. Leave your email and we will send one message per new Calm+Clear lot.
A laboratory issues its report to whoever submits the sample, so this certificate carries the name of Vox Nutrition, the contract manufacturer that produces our formulas. The lot number on it is the lot in your bottle.
They commission each lot's certificate from a laboratory owned by neither company, which is what makes it an independent check rather than a self-assessment.
Almost every supplement on the shelf is made by a contract manufacturer. The difference is that most brands do not tell you which one.
