I have a shellfish allergy. Are your supplement ingredients shellfish free or produced in shellfish-free factories?

Question:

"Hey FFP Team, I have a serious shellfish allergy. Are your supplement ingredients shellfish produced in a shellfish-free factory?"

Answer:

From our TBRX and BurnRX Manufacturer:

The factory we produce our supplements in is NOT shellfish free. Although our FFP supplements themselves do NOT contain ingredients derived from shellfish... there are some other supplements our manufacturer produces that DO contain ingredients derived from shellfish. The supplement manufacturing machines are thoroughly cleaned between productions runs, but still this does not necessarily guarantee a safe environment for someone with a serious shellfish allergy.

Here's a note directly from our Manufacturing team:

When you clean the manufacturing machines they are never 100% clean maybe 99.9%, but never 100%... so we can not guarantee 100% no shellfish residue from any pervious runs. 

Summary: although our products themselves do not contain shellfish derived ingredients ... we CANNOT guarantee that these products are safe if you have a serious shellfish allergy as there could be some previous supplements run through the manufacturing machine may have shellfish derived ingredients. Cleaning is very thorough but never 100%.

From all our other supplements Manufacturer:

Our (new supplements) facilities are free of all the major food allergens (milk, eggs, fish [e.g., bass, flounder, cod], Crustacean shellfish[e.g., crab, lobster, shrimp], tree nuts [almonds, walnuts, pecans], peanuts, wheat [gluten], and soybean) as identified in the Food Allergen Labeling andConsumer Protection Act of 2004. While our facility is not a certified peanut/tree nut free facility , we do not process Wheat, Peanut or TreeNut-based products (pills, powder or liquid) in our plant. We are a GMP facility that safeguards against any cross-contamination with wheat, peanuts or treenuts, and quarantine all Raw Materials for two weeks while we check them for potency, allergens, heavy metals, pesticides, contaminants and microbials. OurFinished product is then re-checked to make certain that no cross-contamination occurred during production, and that our Allergen statements remain certifiably correct.
