Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block]	NOTE 1 Organization Twinlab Consolidated Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”, “Twinlab,” “we,” “our” and “us”) was incorporated on October 24, 2013 August 7, 2014, Nature of Operations We are an integrated marketer, distributor and retailer of branded nutritional supplements and other natural products sold to and through domestic health and natural food stores, mass market retailers, specialty stores retailers, on-line retailers and websites. Internationally, we market and distribute branded nutritional supplements and other natural products to and through health and natural product distributors and retailers. Our products include vitamins, minerals, specialty supplements and sports nutrition products sold under the Twinlab® brand name (including the REAAL®, and Twinlab® Fuel brand of sports nutrition products); a market leader in the healthy aging and beauty from within categories sold under the Reserveage™ Nutrition and ResVitale® brand names; diet and energy products sold under the Metabolife® brand name; the Re-Body® brand name; and a full line of herbal teas sold under the Alvita® brand name. To accommodate consumer preferences, our products come in various formulations and delivery forms, including capsules, tablets, softgels, chewables, liquids, sprays and powders. These products are sold primarily through health and natural food stores and on-line retailers, supermarkets, and mass-market retailers. We also perform contract manufacturing services for private label products. Our contract manufacturing services business involves the manufacture of custom products to the specifications of a customer who requires finished product under the customer’s own brand name. We do not Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Basis of Presentation and Unaudited Information The condensed consolidated interim financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not not may 10 December 31, 2017 April 3, 2018. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant management estimates include those with respect to returns and allowances, allowance for doubtful accounts, reserves for inventory obsolescence, the recoverability of long-lived assets, intangibles and goodwill and the estimated value of warrants and derivative liabilities. Revenue Recognition Revenue from product sales, net of estimated returns and allowances, is recognized when evidence of an arrangement is in place, related prices are fixed, and determinable, contractual obligations have been satisfied, title and risk of loss have been transferred to the customer and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. Shipping terms are generally freight on board shipping point. We sell predominately in the North American and European markets, with international sales transacted in U.S. dollars. Fair V alue of F inancial I nstruments We apply the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three Level 1 Level 2 1 Level 3 no The following table summarizes our financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2018 December 31, 2017: Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 September 30, 2018: Derivative liabilities $ 8,672 $ - $ - $ 8,672 December 31, 2017: Derivative liabilities $ 6,791 $ - $ - $ 6,791 Accounts Receivable and Allowances We grant credit to customers and generally do not September 30, 2018, $2,712, $490 December 31, 2017, $2,534, $329 Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value and are reduced by an estimated reserve for obsolete inventory. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation, including amounts amortized under capital leases, is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which are 7 10 8 3 Normal repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation or amortization is removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the results of operations. Intangible Assets Intangible assets consist primarily of trademarks and customer relationships, which are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives ranging from 3 30 We believe that our long-term growth strategy supports our fair value conclusions. For intangible assets, the recoverability of these amounts is dependent upon achievement of our projections and the execution of key initiatives related to revenue growth and improved profitability. Goodwill Goodwill is not may not Impairment of Long-Lived Assets Long-lived assets, including intangible assets subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment when changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets Indefinite-lived intangible assets relating to the asset acquisition of Organic Holdings, a market leader in the healthy aging and beauty from within categories, and owner of the Reserveage Nutrition brands, are determined to have an indefinite useful economic life and as such are not September 30, 2018 December 31, 2017 $4,346 Value of Warrants Issued with Debt We estimate the grant date value of certain warrants issued with debt, using an outside professional valuation firm, which uses the Monte Carlo option lattice model. We record the amounts as interest expense or debt discount, depending on the terms of the agreement. These estimates involve multiple inputs and assumptions, including the market price of the Company’s common stock, stock price volatility and other assumptions to project earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) and other reset events. These inputs and assumptions are subject to management’s judgment and can vary materially from period to period. Derivative Liabilities We have recorded certain warrants as derivative liabilities at estimated fair value, as determined based on our use of an outside professional valuation firm, due to the variable terms of the warrant agreements. The value of the derivative liabilities is generally estimated using the Monte Carlo option lattice model with multiple inputs and assumptions, including the market price of the Company’s common stock, stock price volatility and other assumptions to project EBITDA and other reset events. These inputs and assumptions are subject to management’s judgment and can vary materially from period to period. Deferred gain on sale of assets We entered into a sale-leaseback arrangement relating to our office facilities in 2013. 15 $40 three September 30, 2018 2017. nine September 30, 2018 2017, $121 $121, September 30, 2018, December 31, 2017, $1,444 $1,565, Net Income (Loss) per Common Share Basic net income or loss per common share (Basic EPS) is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income or loss per common share (Diluted EPS) is computed by dividing net income or loss by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the dilutive potential common shares then outstanding. Potential dilutive common share equivalents consist of total shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants to acquire common stock using the treasury stock method and the average market price per share during the period. When calculating diluted earnings or loss per share, if the effects are dilutive, companies are required to add back to net income or loss the effects of the change in derivative liabilities related to warrants. Additionally, if the effects of the change in derivative liabilities are added back to net income or loss, companies are required to include the warrants outstanding related to the derivative liability in the calculation of the weighted average dilutive shares.

Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant management estimates include those with respect to returns and allowances, allowance for doubtful accounts, reserves for inventory obsolescence, the recoverability of long-lived assets, intangibles and goodwill and the estimated value of warrants and derivative liabilities.

Property, Plant and Equipment, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation, including amounts amortized under capital leases, is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which are 7 10 8 3 Normal repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation or amortization is removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the results of operations.

Fair Value of Warrants Issued, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Value of Warrants Issued with Debt We estimate the grant date value of certain warrants issued with debt, using an outside professional valuation firm, which uses the Monte Carlo option lattice model. We record the amounts as interest expense or debt discount, depending on the terms of the agreement. These estimates involve multiple inputs and assumptions, including the market price of the Company’s common stock, stock price volatility and other assumptions to project earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) and other reset events. These inputs and assumptions are subject to management’s judgment and can vary materially from period to period.
Derivatives, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Derivative Liabilities We have recorded certain warrants as derivative liabilities at estimated fair value, as determined based on our use of an outside professional valuation firm, due to the variable terms of the warrant agreements. The value of the derivative liabilities is generally estimated using the Monte Carlo option lattice model with multiple inputs and assumptions, including the market price of the Company’s common stock, stock price volatility and other assumptions to project EBITDA and other reset events. These inputs and assumptions are subject to management’s judgment and can vary materially from period to period.

Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Net Income (Loss) per Common Share Basic net income or loss per common share (Basic EPS) is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income or loss per common share (Diluted EPS) is computed by dividing net income or loss by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the dilutive potential common shares then outstanding. Potential dilutive common share equivalents consist of total shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants to acquire common stock using the treasury stock method and the average market price per share during the period. When calculating diluted earnings or loss per share, if the effects are dilutive, companies are required to add back to net income or loss the effects of the change in derivative liabilities related to warrants. Additionally, if the effects of the change in derivative liabilities are added back to net income or loss, companies are required to include the warrants outstanding related to the derivative liability in the calculation of the weighted average dilutive shares.
