Online Orders & Shipping

VitaminLab is a subscription service that sends your formula automatically to you every 3 months. You will be billed for your formula on a monthly basis (similar to a payment plan!).You can cancel/update your plan up to 14 days before your refill payment, just let us know at [email protected]. If cancellation occurs in the middle of a billing cycle, any scheduled outstanding payments must be received before cancellation is completed. *Deleting a saved formula from your profile will not cancel a subscription.

Shipping is free for all orders within North America. For international orders, your shipping fee will be calculated once your delivery information has been entered during the checkout process. Please note that if you are ordering a 90 day formula with international shipping, the shipping fee will be split across your three monthly payments. For example, $30 shipping will add $10 to each of your three monthly payments.

All taxes are included in the monthly cost shown in the checkout process. International orders may be subject to duties or custom charges upon delivery.

VitaminLab formulas are completely customized to you (and therefore can take a little bit longer than other online purchases!) Once you have placed your order, please allow approximately 10-14 business days for your order to be completed and delivered. For international orders the shipping time may vary based on your location. Please note that as we are a Canadian based business, orders may be slightly delayed due to Canadian statutory holidays.

Formulas

You have the choice of either vegetable capsules or powder for your VitaminLab formula. For powder formulas, we offer an unflavored option or berry flavored option which is sweetened with stevia.

Just simply follow the dosage directions on your label. For powder formulas, use the scoop provided and mix your daily dose with water, juice or a smoothie. For best taste, we suggest drinking immediately after mixing. For capsules, follow your suggested daily capsule dose. You can split your capsules up throughout the day if preferred. We recommend taking your capsules with a meal, rather than on an empty stomach.

We have found that on average it takes at least 3 months for people to notice a difference in their health after starting a new supplement. As a result, our formulas are sent in 90-day supplies to provide you the most cost effective option that will allow enough time for your body to adjust and begin correcting deficiencies. You will automatically be sent refills so you never have to worry about running out of vitamins again!

You can make changes to your formula up to 14 days prior to your next refill date. Contact us if you wish to make adjustments at [email protected]

Our formulas are made in an FDA registered and GMP compliant facility located in British Columbia, Canada.

Quiz Questions

Our online quiz asks a series of questions to gather information on diet, lifestyle, health history and health goals. Based on this information we suggest nutrients for your formula backed by nutritional literature research. This generates a formula that is specifically tailored to help you achieve your goals.
Alternatively, you can visit our Create Stack page if you already know what vitamins and minerals you would like to take and create your own custom formula.

Since all formulas are unique, formulas can vary in cost, the final monthly cost of your formula will be shown on the final page once you’ve completed the questionnaire.

Yes. Within VitaminLab, Your DNA is completely de-identified and encrypted in our database ensuring that your PHI is kept safe and secure. For other test results, we will only receive information that you choose to share with us, and our customer information system is encrypted to be fully HIPPA compliant.

This depends on your experience level with supplements. If you’re newer to supplements or are looking to get more specific with your formula the questionnaire is a great place to start! If you have very specific ideas of the supplements you’d like to take, or you’re looking to consolidate your current supplements, our shop page is a great place to build a formula from scratch!
