The best before date (BBD) – what does it mean?

When it comes to the best-before date (BBD for short), many people immediately think of "no longer good." But especially with dietary supplements, the BBD is not an expiration date ! Rather, it represents the period during which the product retains its full quality and effectiveness – provided it is stored properly. This means: Your product can still be used safely after the BBD has expired without losing its effectiveness.

Best before date is not the same as use by date!

Unlike fresh foods like fish or meat, where the best-before date must be strictly adhered to, dietary supplements can often be used beyond their best-before date . Important: Store your products in a cool, dry place, away from light, to maintain maximum quality. Once opened, close tightly and use promptly!

Tip: How to store your YLUMI products correctly

With proper storage, you can maintain the quality of your supplements:

• Store in a cool (room temperature) and dry place
• Protect from sunlight
• Close tightly after opening and consume quickly

Do not dispose of products prematurely!

Even if the best-before date has passed, you can still use many dietary supplements – as long as they have been stored properly. Just pay attention to any changes in smell, color, or taste. If the product remains unaffected, there's nothing to stop you from consuming it. This way, you can help prevent unnecessary waste and continue to support your body at the same time.
