There is a review here that says some of your product is from China and/or India. Is this true? Vitamins, minerals - anything from overseas?

On the box it states "made in the USA with ingredients from around the world(nothing from China)"

I too was very concerned about country of origin AS THE PRODUCT IS NOT so labeled. I contacted the seller and after two emails back and forth was told: China. I asked if Pumpkin seeds were available from US and was told that this product is not available other than from China. I wish I knew if that was true. I am not happy buying food from China where I know that many ecological conditions are very bad. Oh well, I will use up the big package and in several months try hard again to find this product from U.S. source.

I called the company today and asked where their ingredients were sourced and who manufactures them since the container says "Manufactured for". The manufacturer is "Proprietary information", and while they stated they conduct stringent testing, they could not guarantee that any of the ingredients are NOT sourced from China.

See 3 questions up from this one. Product is "sourced" from China but packaged in US.

Healthworks is always looking for high quality products at low prices so we can pass this along to our customers. They don't always come from the same place, but rest assured they are personally inspected and must meet our standards before they are brought to our customers. Usually from Mexico, Argentina or South America in those regions. Hope that answers your question. ThanksHealthworks

it says distributed in NV, but doesn't say where it was manufactured. I wouldn't touch anything food/supplement related from China, they don't have a reputation of ... quality

I just called Bulksupplements to be sure and they confirmed that their current stock is from CHINA. Maybe it was from france before, but not any longer. With all the heavy metals and pollution in china, I would skip on this.

I didn't see anything on the container that says that it was made in China nor any of the ingredients. All that I can see is that it says " Manufactured for Quality Supplements and Vitamins, Inc., Ft Lauderdale Florida" which may indicate that someone else makes it for the company based on Florida. Hope that helps

As with so many products, country of origin is China. Unless there are major issues with origin, it is still a good product.

I purchased 2 bottles of this, & both were labeled MADE IN CHINA. It seems that if a company purchases raw bulk materials from another country, but portions & repackages it in the USA, that they can label it as American. This happens with a wide variety of products. A lot of unsavory things are allowed into our foods, drinks, medicines, & supplements that are legally kept hidden from us. Welcome to America.

Unfortunately their packages do not list where the products are sourced. You'll have to contact the company.

According to the Stevita website, the product is grown in the highlands of central southeast South America covering portions of Brazil, Paraguay and Argentina. So I would assume it is not from China.

Product manufactured in the USA. Dont't know ingredient origin. FYI - 83% Of all Pharmaceutical and Supplement ingredients are imported from countries all over the world. The USA is NOT a producer of Pharmaceutical and Supplement ingredients. We are good at making products, but not good at cultivating the ingredients that go into them. So, according the FDA, chances are 83% to 100% that every supplement or pharmaceutical product that you purchase from your local Walgreens, CVS, GNC, VitaminWorld, Vitamin Shoppe, etc, contains an ingredient or ingredients that come from another part of the world.
