Why QR Verification Matters for Your Supplements

The supplement industry is plagued by counterfeit products. Studies suggest that up to 25% of supplements sold online may be fake or adulterated. This is why Bio Lab has implemented a comprehensive QR verification system to protect our customers.

The Counterfeit Problem

Counterfeit supplements pose serious health risks. They may contain incorrect dosages, harmful substances, or no active ingredients at all. In the SARMs and peptide market, this problem is particularly severe because these products are often sold through unregulated channels.

Common issues with counterfeit products include underdosed active ingredients leading to ineffective results, contamination with heavy metals or banned substances, mislabeled products that don't contain what's advertised, and products manufactured in unsanitary conditions.

How Our QR System Works

Every Bio Lab product comes with a unique QR code on the packaging. When you scan this code with your smartphone, our system instantly verifies the product's authenticity. You'll see the product name, batch number, manufacturing date, and lab test results.

Each QR code can only be verified once, which prevents counterfeiters from copying codes and applying them to fake products. After verification, the code is marked as "used" in our database, and subsequent scans will show a warning.

What Verification Shows You

When you verify a Bio Lab product, you get access to the complete Certificate of Analysis (COA) showing purity testing results, heavy metal testing, and microbial testing. This transparency ensures you know exactly what you're putting in your body. We believe every customer deserves this level of assurance.
