CNS16152 — Taiwan's Premium Grade Standard
CNS16152 is Taiwan's national standard for Antrodia cinnamomea products, established by the Bureau of Standards, Metrology and Inspection. It specifies minimum requirements for triterpenoid content, polysaccharide content, heavy metal limits, microbial contamination limits, and extraction methodology.
Thryve's products exceed CNS16152 requirements, with 14.2% triterpenoid content — nearly double the minimum for premium certification. Every batch is independently tested and certified before release.
Hospital-Grade Quality Assurance
The quality standards applied to Thryve products are the same standards used by hospitals in Taiwan and Hong Kong when sourcing Antrodia cinnamomea for patient care. This is not a marketing claim — it reflects the direct involvement of Dr. Ho, who has worked within these hospital systems throughout his career.
Our extraction facility operates under GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) certification, with full traceability from cultivation through extraction and packaging.
