Verify My Stack is a private collective that pools members’ dues to run independent lab tests on the supplements we actually take — batch by batch, full results published, no brand money allowed.
Founding membership: $19/mo, first 100 only, locked for life. Waitlist gets 72-hour early access. No spam — two emails a week, each anchored to a real test result.
Supplements aren’t approved before they’re sold. That “third-party tested” badge is usually a certificate the manufacturer paid for, from a lab it chose, on a sample it provided. Independent testing keeps finding under-dosed actives, cheap substitutes, and heavy metals. You can’t fix that alone: testing your own stack would cost thousands a year. Together, it costs $19 a month.
Verify My Stack was founded by Wes Burk, who spent eleven years running Emerald Scientific — home of The Emerald Test, the proficiency program state regulators used to verify that cannabis testing labs could produce accurate results. Blind samples, chain of custody, method validation: that was the day job. Now the same rigor is pointed at the supplement aisle.
Members nominate products and batch numbers (30 seconds), and ranked-choice voting sets each month’s test queue.
Sealed retail units, blind-bought, chain of custody documented, analyzed by ISO-accredited independent labs. Failing results are confirmed by a second lab before publication.
Full certificates of analysis, chromatograms and all. Half of every dollar goes to testing, tracked in an open ledger.
Watch: the first samples — sealed retail units, photographed and boxed for the lab. Chain of custody starts at the register.
Products that don’t contain what the label claims — and affordable brands that pass the same tests as the expensive ones the big longevity names promote. The $22 creatine that tests identical to the $65 one is exactly the kind of find this community exists for.

One avoided bottle of fake NMN pays for your year. So does one switch from a $65 bottle to a $22 bottle that tests identical. That’s not a slogan, it’s arithmetic.
