The certifications and marks you can publicly look up for JEROSSE fall into three groups. JEROSSE 婕樂纖纖飄錠 holds a Ministry of Health and Welfare (MOHW) health food certification (MOHW Health Food Certificate No. A00394). 纖飄錠, JEROSSE 婕樂纖高機能益生菌, JEROSSE 婕樂纖纖纖飲X and several other items have the SNQ National Quality Mark, and some other items carry the Clean Label mark or have passed SGS testing. Right now 纖飄錠 is the only item with health food certification. The other items are regular foods or cosmetics, and what they hold are quality and testing marks. You can check both the health food certification and the SNQ mark yourself through the official channels using the certificate number.
When you're sizing up a supplement brand, the certifications you can verify publicly tell you more than the ads do. Below, a table first matches each item to its marks. After that, each section explains how to check each type of mark and how to use this information to double check before you buy.

MOHW Health Food Certification (the Green Health Food Logo): Only 纖飄錠
婕樂纖纖飄錠 holds health food certification under MOHW Health Food Certificate No. A00394. It's currently the only item in the JEROSSE lineup with health food certification. For what was actually approved, go by the original wording in the MOHW database. The daily serving and who it isn't recommended for are covered separately in the full guide to 纖飄錠.
How to check the health food certification yourself
- Write down the certificate number you want to look up: MOHW Health Food Certificate No. A00394.
- Open the MOHW "Health Food Database".
- Enter the certificate number in the search field.
- Check that the product name in the result is 纖飄錠, and read through the approved content.
- If what a shop or its ad copy says is different from the approved content, go by the version in the database.
Just search by the certificate number directly. You don't need to rely on screenshots reposted by shops. Screenshots can be cropped or out of date, and the database result is the original record.
SNQ National Quality Mark: Held by Several Items
SNQ (Symbol of National Quality) is reviewed by the Institute for Biotechnology and Medicine Industry. Several JEROSSE items hold the SNQ mark, including 纖飄錠, 高機能益生菌, 纖纖飲X, 植萃纖酵宿 and 複方金盞花葉黃素EX飲 (SNQ No. B01059). All mark numbers can be verified on the SNQ official website.
How to check the SNQ mark yourself
- Confirm the item and the mark number you want to check. The item with a number listed in this article is 複方金盞花葉黃素EX飲 (SNQ No. B01059).
- For other items, you can ask the seller for the number before you order.
- Go to the SNQ official website and enter the number.
- Check that the item name in the result matches the one you plan to buy.

If you want to confirm the mark or testing details for a specific item, ask the seller for that item's documents, then check that the product name matches.

Why Are Certifications More Reliable Than Shop Copy?
Taiwan's rules on health statements for food are strict. Only products with health food certification can make health-related statements, and only within the approved scope. Regular foods can only state facts about ingredients and specifications. So whether a product is certified, and what the certification says, is the most solid thing to judge by, not how moving the shop copy sounds.
Applied to JEROSSE: when you read about any item other than 纖飄錠, what you should see are facts like ingredients, specifications and how to take it. If a shop writes health-related statements for a regular food, that doesn't line up with what the rules require of regular foods, and you can treat it as a sign to check further.
Three Questions to Check Before You Buy
- Which type does this item hold?
- Can you find the number? Look up health food certification in the MOHW "Health Food Database" and the SNQ mark on the SNQ official website.
- Does what the seller says match what you found? Once the product name, the number and the approved content all line up, then compare which seller to buy from.
Once the marks check out, whether the seller is reliable is a separate thing to confirm. See how to tell if a JEROSSE seller is safe to buy from, which covers three things to look at and a short conversation you can use to ask directly.
FAQ
Q: Does JEROSSE 高機能益生菌 have health food certification?
No. 婕樂纖高機能益生菌 holds the SNQ National Quality Mark and isn't one of the health food certified items. Serving size, storage and common questions about these probiotics are covered in how to take 婕樂纖高機能益生菌.
Q: Are the SNQ National Quality Mark and health food certification the same thing?
No. Health food certification is approved by the MOHW, and only certified products can make health-related statements within the approved scope. The number for 纖飄錠 starts with "衛部健食字". The SNQ National Quality Mark is reviewed by the Institute for Biotechnology and Medicine Industry and is a quality mark. The SNQ number listed in this article starts with "國品字". You also look them up in different places. The first is checked in the MOHW database, and the second on the SNQ official website.
Q: Can certification information expire?
For the validity period and current status of a certification, go by the results in the official MOHW and SNQ databases. Checking once yourself before you order is more reliable than reading old articles or old screenshots.
Q: What if the database can't find the number the seller gave me?
First check that the number was copied correctly, including prefixes like "衛部健食字" and "國品字" and the letters and numbers after them. Then make sure you're searching the right channel. Health food certification is checked with the MOHW, and the SNQ mark on the SNQ official website. If it still doesn't match, hold off on ordering and ask the seller where the number came from.
