CEPHAM — QUALITY
ROOTS IN AYURVEDA.
RIGOR IN RESEARCH.
Quality is a claim you can measure — or it is marketing.
↓
EVIDENCE-BASED AYURVEDA
Not an oxymoron.
A standard.
If the active compound cannot be proven present at the level the clinical work was run on — verified by an independent laboratory — then what you have is an Ayurvedic-flavored powder, not a substantiated ingredient.
An ingredient either contains the marker compound at the studied dose, batch after batch, or it does not. There is no third state. This is the line Cepham holds — and it is the reason a formulator can build a label around a Cepham ingredient and defend it.
STANDARDIZATION
Named markers.
Not vague percentages.
Every branded Cepham ingredient is standardized to the same compound the clinical research was built on. A percentage is only meaningful if the laboratory can find that compound in the drum you actually shipped.
Furosap®
Protodioscin
Furostanol saponin at the center of its clinical work in men's health. Standardized to the studied compound, every lot.
GCB70
70% Total Chlorogenic Acids
Green coffee bean extract with a specified 5-CQA fraction. Not a generic chlorogenic acid claim.
Blamus™
Curculigosides
From Curculigo orchioides. Standardized to the defined glycoside marker tied to the research.
Oleano 85
Oleanolic & Maslinic Acids
Dual-acid standardization from olive. Both markers defined, both verified.
Alfabin™
Alpha-Yohimbine
Standardized to alpha-yohimbine from Rauwolfia. Precise alkaloid fraction, not total alkaloids.
CHAIN OF CUSTODY
Growing to batch.
One system.
Botanical variability enters at the soil, the harvest window, the drying method, and the storage conditions — long before an extract reaches a testing bench. Quality that starts at the QC lab has already lost the argument.
Cepham was built to oversee every link in the chain: growing, harvesting, wild-crafting, full extraction, tray and fluid bed drying, sifting, blending, and final batch testing — all under one quality system, not a network of brokers and middlemen.

IN-HOUSE QC
Testing that verifies
the label.
An in-house QC laboratory at each facility means identity, potency, and purity are confirmed where the material is made. The independent-laboratory principle then closes the loop.
01
Identity Testing
Confirms the botanical is what it claims to be. Every lot. Every facility.
02
Potency Testing
Confirms the marker compound is present at the specified concentration.
03
Purity Testing
Screens for the contaminants that botanical supply chains are prone to carry.
If an outside lab cannot confirm the marker at the studied dose, the claim does not survive — and neither does the batch.
THE DIFFERENCE
Ayurvedic-flavored powder.
Or a substantiated ingredient.
The Old Way
✗ Vague botanical percentage on spec sheet
✗ Outsourced testing — hoped for, not owned
✗ Unknown harvest window & drying conditions
✗ Broker-assembled supply chain
✗ Compound not tied to clinical work
✗ No independent lab verification
The Cepham Standard
✓ Named marker compound — tied to clinical research
✓ In-house QC lab at every production facility
✓ Controlled growing, harvest & drying oversight
✓ Vertically integrated — no brokers, no middlemen
✓ Same compound in the study is in the drum
✓ Independent laboratory verification every lot
OUR PRINCIPLES
Safety. Science. Sustainability.
Safety comes first for a reason. A supplement brand carries the regulatory and reputational risk of every ingredient on its label. Our job is to make that risk one you can document.
01
Safety
Several Cepham ingredients carry published human safety and tolerability data. What is safe in the study is what ships in the drum.
02
Science
Every claim is traceable to a defined compound, a published study, and an independently verified specification.
03
Sustainability
Plant tissue culture capability protects source material identity. Vertical integration removes dependence on fragmented supply chains.
CERTIFIED WHERE IT COUNTS
Certification is the floor,
not the achievement.
It confirms that the systems, the documentation, and the audit trail exist. What sits on top of that floor is the work.
NSF-GMP
Good Manufacturing Practice
ISO 9001
