The addition of the "Better For You" tier further supports World Health Organization recommendations.

DRAPER, UT / ACCESSWIRE / January 23, 2024 / The Osmolality Lab has announced an additional tier to their THE OSMOLab CERTIFIEDSM personal lubricant certification. This new tier of certification, THE OSMOLab CERTIFIEDSM Better For You, allows for personal lubricants that align with ideal osmolality recommendations from the World Health Organization to stand out on the shelves for consumers. The additional tier was introduced to help further align the certification program's values and criteria with published research

The World Health Organization recommends lubricants should have a low osmolality to minimize vaginal and epithelial damage and reduce the risk of infection. Due to limits in sourcing, an interim recommendation was put forth that states lubricants should have an osmolality less than 1200 mOsm/kg, but clarified an ideal osmolality recommendation of less than 380 mOsm/kg. The Osmolality Lab has revised its criteria for personal lubricant certifications to reflect these recommendations. Moving forward, products that meet the interim recommendation (380-1200 mOsm/kg) can be awarded the standard THE OSMOLab CERTIFIEDSM badging. Products that meet the ideal recommendation from the World Health Organization (<380 mOsm/kg) can be awarded the new THE OSMOLab CERTIFIEDSM Better For You badge.

"The launch of this new tier signifies a new era in intimate well-being," explains CEO of The Osmolality Lab Nick Gillitt, Ph.D. "This new tier underscores our unwavering commitment to scientific rigor and our goal of empowering consumers with information to make informed choices about their intimate health products."
