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.
The listing-image panel publishes an amount for each of its 8 listed rows. That supports ingredient-by-ingredient review; it does not verify the contents.
| Panel row | Amount | %DV | What to notice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Thiamin (as Thiamine Mononitrate) | 1.5 mg | — | |
| Riboflavin | 1.7 mg | — | |
| Niacin (as Niacinamide) | 20 mg | — | |
| Vitamin B6 (as Pyridoxine Hydrochloride) | 2 mg | — | |
| Folate | 665 mcg DFE (400 mcg Folic Acid) | — | |
| Vitamin B12 (as Cyanocobalamin) | 6 mcg | — | |
| Biotin | 300 mcg | — | |
| Pantothenic Acid (as d-Calcium Pantothenate) | 10 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; the open question is whether those listed amounts are independently verified and how they compare with relevant research.
vision:google/gemini-flash-1.5 Amounts are shown as listed panel data, not independently lab-tested contents.
Every check we ran
Confirmed evidence
These checks found support in the public record. They confirm specific facts, not the product as a whole.
Label #8901 “B-Complex Supplement With Vitamin C” (Nature Made), entered 2012-06-01, with the full Supplement Facts on file — see the panel below. NIH marks this label as off-market (superseded or discontinued version). Company on file: Distributor — Nature Made Nutritional Products, Mission Hills, CA, U.S.A..
The panel gives a per-ingredient amount rather than hiding quantities inside a proprietary blend, so each one can be compared to published research.
Open Food Facts resolves 031604028657 to "Super B Energy Complex" (Nature Made) — consistent with this listing.
Written reviews grew from 1497 to 1523 across 2026-02-06 – 2026-07-08 with no single manufactured spike (largest 30-day gain ~18).
Documented concerns
These are documented contradictions or claims that need more evidence. They are separate from missing data.
The panel lists 50 mg niacin. NIH gives 35 mg as the adult Tolerable Upper Intake Level for supplemental/added niacin, adults. That is about 1.4 times the limit.
Unresolved public record
We looked for these signals but could not settle them from public sources. A gap is not a strike.
USPTO returned multiple live supplement-class records for the exact brand wordmark: PHARMAVITE LLC, PHARMAVITE CORPORATION. These records answer who owns registrations for the brand; the separate product-to-owner or manufacturer link remains open.
We read the full Supplement Facts panel from the listing-image panel (below), but the label doesn’t state a serving weight, so the arithmetic can’t run. A gap in the label’s information, not evidence of a problem.
Brand-level context only, not a finding about this product. Pharmavite recalled a different or not-exactly-bound product on 2016-06-06: “Specific lots of Nature Made(R) Vitamin D tablets may exceed specifications for yeast/mold.” (status: Terminated). The recalled product was: “Nature Made(R) D3 1000IU, 125 count, UPC 0-31604-02793-3” — not necessarily the product on this page. Verify at FDA’s recall database.
The paid catalog links this exact item to a parent listing. Review counts on public product pages may be shared across sizes, flavors, or other variants, so the count history is listing context — not evidence that reviewers received or tested this exact variant.
Exact-listing history records written-review counts from 1,498 on 2026-01-31 to 1,523 on 2026-07-08 (net +25). Count movements can reflect sales, listing variants, collection resets, or moderation; this history does not establish whether reviews are authentic.
What to ask and check
Check for yourself — no one’s permission needed
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.
Scan the barcode on the package and confirm it reads 031604028657.
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.
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
| Claim | Status | What we found |
|---|---|---|
| Benefit claim “…en, Dietary Supplement for Energy Metabolism Support, Super Vitamin B Complex, 60 Softgels, 60 Da…” | 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.
