Sourcing
At 143, every ingredient we have chosen carries a story rooted in ancient tradition. At the core of our values is a commitment to honoring that story through sustainable sourcing, intentionality, and purity.
Our freshwater pearl powder is carefully sourced in a way that protects marine ecosystems while preserving the integrity of each harvest. Our organic sea buckthorn and organic turmeric (standardized to 95% curcuminoids) are selected with the same standard of transparency and excellence.
Every ingredient is thoroughly tested in our United States manufacturing facility to ensure purity, potency, and consistency. To us, sustainability and purity are not afterthoughts. They are foundational to the entirety of the sourcing process.
Choosing 143 means choosing ingredients that are mindfully cultivated and thoughtfully refined. We believe wellness is not only about what you put into your body, but also about honoring the earth God created, the very place from which these gifts of healing come.

"Other Ingredients"
The 'other ingredients' are also intentionally chosen to avoid using common manufacturing support additives such as microcrystalline cellulose (a filler), magnesium stearate (a lubricant to prevent sticking), silicon dioxide (an anti-caking agent), and lecithin (an emulsifier for uniform mixing). Instead, we have used rice flour as a natural excipient instead of microcrystalline cellulose, and a rice extract blend to help support the manufacturing process. Within the blend are all-natural, organic ingredients (Organic Rice Bran Extract, Organic Rice Hulls, Organic Gum Arabic, and Organic Sunflower Oil) to replace magnesium stearate, silicone dioxide, and lecithin, and still support what is needed for manufacturing purposes. Our capsules are also made with Organic Pullulan, a 100% plant-based supplement shell made from fermented tapioca or starch. Transparency and purity are at the core of our ethos, which is why every ingredient (even the micro additions) should be only what is fully needed, and the highest, most natural quality possible.

Packaging
Our packaging reflects that same philosophy.
The amber glass bottle is intentionally chosen not only for its timeless aesthetic but also for its function. Amber glass helps protect the integrity of the supplement by limiting light exposure and reducing oxidation, extending freshness naturally without unnecessary preservatives.
By choosing glass over plastic, we significantly reduce environmental impact while creating a vessel designed to be reused. Customers are encouraged to repurchase through our refill option (offered at a discounted price), helping minimize waste across both production and shipping.
