Every ingredient amount is disclosed

How to read this report
What this is. We compare what a listing claims against what public records show — label arithmetic, barcode registries, NIH’s label catalog, FDA enforcement data, certification registries, and published research. Every statement below traces to one of those.
What the states mean. Confirmed = an outside source agrees. Contradicted = an outside source disagrees. Caution = something needs explaining. No data = we looked and found nothing — a gap, not a strike.
What it is not. A clean record is not an endorsement and never proof a product works. A thin record is not an accusation. We publish evidence and gaps; the conclusion is yours. Nothing here is medical advice.
Something wrong? Every figure is meant to be checkable — sources are named and linked. Send a correction and we’ll fix the record.
Panel, decoded
The 800 mg choline (as choline chloride) (vitacholine®) claim matches the panel
MARKETING800 mg — per-serving claim
PANELCholine (as choline chloride) (VitaCholine®) 800 mg — same amountCholine (as choline chloride) (VitaCholine®) 800 mg
matches panelWe did the comparison: the listing claims 800 mg of choline (as choline chloride) (vitacholine®), and the listing-image panel shows 800 mg choline (as choline chloride) (vitacholine®) 2 liquid capsules. Those amounts agree. This is internal consistency, not independent lab testing.
| Panel row | Amount | %DV | What to notice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Choline (as choline chloride) (VitaCholine®) | 800 mg | — |
FDA rules (21 CFR 101.36) require the amount of each dietary ingredient per serving unless hidden in a listed “proprietary blend” (legal, but a transparency yellow flag). A label stating no amount at all is non-compliant — a checkable red flag. This panel states amounts; any remaining comparison concerns the front-label framing.

Every check we ran
Confirmed evidence
What checked out3
These checks found support in the public record. They confirm specific facts, not the product as a whole.
Confirmed
Exact trademark owner identified
USPTO lists Sports Research Corporation (CORPORATION) in CALIFORNIA, USA for the exact brand wordmark. This identifies the USPTO mark owner or applicant; it does not by itself prove who manufactures or sells this product.
The review count moved gradually, not in one burst
Written reviews fell from 20 to 6 between August 5 and August 7, 2025. No single 30-day window in the dated series shows a rise.
Documented concerns
What needs caution0
These are documented contradictions or claims that need more evidence. They are separate from missing data.
No contradictions or product-specific cautions were found at this check depth.
Unresolved public record
What is still missing4
We looked for these signals but could not settle them from public sources. A gap is not a strike.
Listing claim matches the label panel
The listing claims 800 mg; the photo-read Supplement Facts panel shows Choline (as choline chloride) (VitaCholine®) at 800 mg per serving — the listing text and its photo-read panel agree; this is internal consistency, not independent testing.
Public label filing not saved
We have not found a public label filing for this exact product. That is a gap in our records, not evidence that no filing exists.
180-day review-count history is on file
Exact-listing history records written-review counts from 20 on 2025-08-05 to 6 on 2025-08-07 (net -14). Count movements can reflect sales, listing variants, collection resets, or moderation; this history does not establish whether reviews are authentic.
UPC valid, no independent record
Check digit passes; no third-party database record found yet. Coverage gaps are common — not a strike.
What to ask and check
What would settle the open questions
Why is this shown?
Everything we couldn’t verify is something a person can still ask about. Rather than leave gaps sitting as dead ends, we turn each one into a specific question — the exact document, citation, or number that would settle it — plus the things you can confirm yourself with the bottle in your hand.
Ask the brand or seller
1
Answered by the panel: 0.8 g of the 0.8 g headline is choline. Which independent lab can confirm that amount in this product?
The panel resolves the front-label arithmetic. The remaining question is lot-specific contents and stability; published category testing gives context, not a test of this product.
2
Can you send the certificate of analysis (COA) for the lot number on my bottle?
A real COA names the testing laboratory, the test date, the lot it covers, and what was measured. “Third-party tested” with no document behind it is a marketing sentence.
3
Is this label filed with NIH’s Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD)?
Filing is voluntary, so absence proves nothing — but a filed label puts the full ingredient table on public record where anyone can read it.
Most brands and sellers publish a contact route. A clear answer adds evidence to the record; no answer leaves the question open.
Check for yourself — no one’s permission needed
1
Compare the panel on the bottle in your hand to the one shown in this record.
Ours was read from listing photos and can contain reading errors. The physical label is the source of truth — if they disagree, tell us and we’ll correct the record.
2
Scan the barcode on the package and confirm it reads 023249093701.
A mismatch between the barcode on the box and the one on the listing is worth pausing over — it can indicate a different variant, a repack, or a counterfeit.
3
Check the lot number and expiry on the bottle against any COA you’re given.
A certificate that doesn’t name your lot doesn’t describe what you’re holding.
These are the open questions on this specific record — not a warning about the product, and not a suggestion to buy or avoid it. Getting them answered is how you decide for yourself.
What the listing promises — claim by claim
Why is this shown?
A listing’s promises are the reason people buy. Each one gets its own row: what was promised, what evidence would settle it, and what we could actually find. We never call a claim false — only whether proof proportionate to it exists on the public record.
| Claim | Status | What we found |
|---|---|---|
| Quality-testing claim “…Third Party Tested…” | Claimed, not verifiable We looked for: the observed listing, saved brand product page, any linked COA or test report; NSF, IFOS, USP, Informed-Sport were not queried | No named laboratory or lot-specific certificate was found for this exact product. No exact brand product page was available for a document check. NSF, IFOS, USP, and Informed-Sport were not checked in this record. This is a public-evidence limit, not a finding that testing did not occur. |
| Benefit claim “Sports Research ® Extra Strength Choline 800 mg - Essential Nutrient Featuring VitaCholine ® for Focus Support - Vegan Certified…” | Not checked yet We looked for: whether the ingredient doses on the label match the doses used in published research | Ingredient-level evidence for this formula isn’t in our knowledge base yet. Recorded as not checked yet — not as a negative. |
“No evidence located” does not mean a claim is false — it means the seller has not put evidence proportionate to the claim on the public record, and we could not find any. Absence of proof is not proof of absence.
