How I Researched Sacred Health (and Why I’m Confident in What We’ve Built)

By Claire

When we set out to launch Sacred Health, I wanted more than pretty labels and good intentions. I wanted proof. So I did what I do best: I compared everything—ingredients, testing, dosing, value, and the real-world “feel” of taking the products—against the most trusted brands I could find in New Zealand and abroad.

How I compared

• Label deep-dive: I read every Supplement Facts panel like a detective—forms (e.g., methylated Bs, chelated minerals), per-capsule amounts, and unnecessary fillers.

• Quality signals: I checked for GMP manufacturing, heavy-metal testing, IFOS-level purity for fish oil, freshness markers like TOTOX, and transparent lot testing.

• Meaningful metrics: For Omega-3s I compared cost per 1,000 mg of EPA+DHA, not just price per bottle. For D3, I looked at the pairing with K2 (and the carrier oil). For minerals, I prioritised bioavailable chelates.

• Vegan/allergen profile: Clear wins for products that are dairy/soy/egg/sugar/artificial-free—and that say so plainly.

• Impact & ethos: I also weighed whether a brand’s mission aligns with better health for people and community.

What stood out

1. Formulations that mirror what clinicians actually recommend.
   Our Vitamin D3 + K2 in hemp oil (for absorption), chelated Mineral Complex, and methylated B-Complex read like practitioner protocols, not marketing.

2. A superior fish oil story.
   I compared EPA/DHA per capsule, sourcing, and freshness. Sacred Health’s Omega-3 Ultra Pure delivered excellent EPA+DHA density with robust purity testing—exactly how I want fish oil to look on paper and perform in practice.

3. No fluff, no fillers.
   Across the range, the labels are clean. The excipients are there to serve the formula, not bulk out a capsule.

4. Testing that inspires confidence.
   GMP manufacturing and heavy-metal screening aren’t slogans for us—they’re process. Batch after batch.

5. Real-world feel.
   I took everything side-by-side for weeks. The steadiness you get from the B-Complex, the calm clarity from D3+K2, and the joint/brain “ease” that comes with a high-quality Omega-3—they add up.

Why I trust our doctors

The biggest difference? The doctors behind these formulas. They started from clinical experience—what they actually recommend to people—not from a cost spreadsheet. Their integrity shaped every decision: forms, doses, testing, and what not to include. You can feel that discipline in the bottles.

“Premium without the pretence”—that’s how this range reads to me. Clinical where it counts, clean where it matters, and transparent all the way through.

The bottom line

After comparing Sacred Health to leading names across New Zealand (and some well-regarded international brands), I’m convinced: the quality and impact are overwhelmingly good. If you want supplements that respect both evidence and ethics, these are the ones I’d hand to my own family.

As always, this isn’t medical advice—talk to your clinician about what’s right for you. But if you’re looking for doctor-formulated, rigorously tested, and honestly made supplements, I believe Sacred Health sets a new benchmark.
