Manufacturer Qualification
Under GWI’s supervision, manufacturer qualifications take place by evaluating documents such
as GMP/ISO/HACCP, quality questionnaires, and certificates of analysis. In addition, we carefully
audit warehouse capacity, equipment, and technique/storage facilities. All QC procedures are
meticulously and regularly carried out for both new and existing manufacturers.
In-House Lab testing
Analytical testing of GWI products is performed at the lab in Shanghai, China. We are currently
testing mesh size, bulk density, and microbial testing in house as an initial step. In addition, we
are working with a 3rd party lab in Shanghai to test the heavy metal, and beginning in 2014,
we will commence with ID testing. Eventually, GWI will have full control over the quality of products by
testing a majority of the items listed on the COA.
Pre-Shipment Check
Located in Shanghai, the 100,000 SQ FT warehouse has the capability of making inspections prior
to the overseas shipment. This pre-shipment inspection will guarantee that all customers receive
quality product in a timely manner. Additionally, all products GWI receives in the US are given a
second inspection of all quality control requirements prior to shipping to the final destination.
3rd Party Lab testing Program
In addition to testing product at the in-house lab, we also send them to a third party lab to
verify quality. For new products and new manufacturer origins, GWI will have the lab report
before the product is released to the market. For regular products, GWI also has a testing
program for quarterly or half-yearly reviews.
Manufacturer Origin trace System
Together, with the execution of cGMP, we believe that consistent quality is as important
as maintaining exceptional quality. Part of our quality control program includes keeping
records of all approved manufacturer origins for our customers. We put notes for the
preferred origins per our customers’ request or we keep records of the sample origin that
is approved by the customer. We implement this process to help our customers with their
compliance in cGMP.
Customized Shipping
Your customized shipping is never compromised. Even with over 12,000 annual
shipments, we take all detailed requests from every customer. We carefully record
all shipping instructions stated on each purchase order such as documentations, lot
number, shelf life, and special labels, and then we make sure each request is procured. Every
GWI customer can rest assured knowing that they will receive exactly what they order…every
order, every time!
GWI Quality Control Practice
Quality control at GWI is our foremost priority and we’ve invested considerable human resources and capital
to ensure it. Located in the Newport area of Shanghai, the quality control unit is a 100,000 sq. ft. building
combined with warehouse, office, and a state-of-the-art lab. Every employee in Shanghai holds at least a
bachelor’s degree, and over half have earned a master’s degree in chemical or food science. With our professional
associates, we are able to audit all manufacturers and conduct superior product quality controls on site.

GWI sources premium grape seed starting material
from France that delivers the industry's finest results.
Grape seed is an extract that has a high content of
compounds known as oligomeric proanthocyanidins
(OPCs). The OPCs are chemically known as flavonoids or
polyphenols, which have antioxidant properties and are
present in a wide variety of fruits and vegetables.
SOLUBILITY: Soluble in water.
BENEFIT: Grape seed extract may help with high
cholesterol and poor blood circulation. It has properties
such as anti-inflammatory, antiallergenic, and antioxidant.
It strengthens blood vessels and reduces wrinkles and skin
damage.
betaine
Betaine is a source of nourishment and health for the
cardiovascular system. As a nutrient, it works with
vitamins and minerals to fight harmful toxins in the
bloodstream. It also contains low acidity levels, which
do not deter nutritional gradients. Some studies have
shown Betaine’s effectiveness in reducing levels of
homocysteine, a naturally occurring amino acid that
could lead to the development of heart disease.
SPEC AVAILABLE: Betaine Anhydrous, Betaine HCl
Creatine Monohydrate
We are the #1 distributor of Creatine Monohydrate in the US!
Creatine Monohydrate is a dietary supplement that athletes
and bodybuilders use to increase high intensity exercise
performance, increase strength, build fuller looking muscles,
increase body mass, and gain faster post workout muscle
recovery.
Choline bitartrate
Choline Bitartrate is a common supplement of choline. Natu-
rally produced in the body, albeit at low quantities, consumers
should strive to attain more through diet or supplementation.
Good sources of choline are liver, muscle meats, beans, peas,
eggs, and more.
Calcium Citrate
Calcium is a mineral found naturally in foods that assists with
bone formation and maintenance. Calcium Citrate is known
to be the best-absorbed supplemental form of calcium. Since
it does not require extra stomach acid for absorption, consum-
ers can ingest on an empty stomach. It is commonly used as a
food additive, preservative, and a calcium dietary supplement.
Sucralose
Sucralose is an artificial sweetener made from sugar, so it tastes
like sugar and has no unpleasant aftertaste. It is about 600
times sweeter than sugar and can be used in place of sugar to
eliminate or reduce calories in a wide variety of products.

benfotiamine
Benfotiamine is a synthetic derivative of
Vitamin B1, which helps to prevent nerve and
blood vessel damage caused by diabetes. Two
of the main impacts of diabetes are circulatory
difficulties and vision problems, which are
caused by a build-up of sugar in the tissues.
Benfotiamine also appears to have beneficial
anti-aging qualities, protecting human cells
from harmful metabolic end products. Today,
it is commonly used in the treatment of
individuals with diabetes.
