Certified C.L.E.A.N.® Analysis

What is CytoSolve® Certified C.L.E.A.N.® Analysis

CytoSolve® is used in the Certified C.L.E.A.N.® Standard to evaluate the Bioavailability Score by scientifically assessing how the product’s key nutrient molecules maintain their enzymatic activity when combined. The standard specifies that products are scored from 0 to 20 on this criterion through CytoSolve® testing (CS® Tested™), which analyzes the biochemical activity of ingredients to ensure they remain active and bioavailable in the final product. This score is one of the core elements—alongside safety and minimal processing—that determines whether a food qualifies for the Certified C.L.E.A.N. imprimatur.

What is Certified C.L.E.A.N.®

Certified C.L.E.A.N.® is an independently governed food certification standard designed to bring true clarity, safety, and biological integrity to food products — beyond typical labels like “organic,” “non-GMO,” or “all natural.” It establishes a science-based benchmark so consumers can trust that certified products are safe, minimally processed, biologically meaningful, and formulated to promote optimal nourishment.Unlike traditional certifications that focus only on individual criteria (e.g., USDA Organic), the C.L.E.A.N.® standard assesses products across three foundational pillars:
  • Safety: Compliance with Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP), Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), facility registration, certificates of analysis, and ongoing product shelf-life testing.
  • Minimally Processed: Majority of ingredients are organic, non-GMO, and processed to preserve nutritive integrity.
  • Bioavailability: Evaluation of enzymatic activity and nutrient integrity using advanced systems biology analysis (through CytoSolve®), ensuring that key nutrients remain biologically usable after processing.

Why Certified C.L.E.A.N.® Matters

Consumers today aren’t just buying products — they’re buying trust. Many labels provide perception value, but C.L.E.A.N.® provides biological validation rooted in multidisciplinary standards and systems-level analysis. It unifies safety, processing integrity, and nutrient impact into a single, transparent certification that aligns with modern expectations for food quality, health impact, and scientific accountability.

Whether you are developing nutraceutical innovations, reformulating a product range, or helping consumers make smarter food choices, Certified C.L.E.A.N.® equips you with a credible, defensible, and market-ready standard for true clean food.
