FDA recall appears in this brand's history

Rebuilt from public sources on July 22, 2026 · evidence availability is not a safety or effectiveness verdict.

Panel, decoded

The 400 mg elderberry (sambucus nigra) fruit 4:1 extract claim matches the panel

We did the comparison: the listing claims 400 mg of elderberry (sambucus nigra) fruit 4:1 extract, and the listing-image panel shows 400 mg elderberry (sambucus nigra) fruit 4:1 extract 1 capsule. Those amounts agree. This is internal consistency, not independent lab testing.

Dose vs research

The panel declares 0.4 g per serving, in the 8–40 mg/day context cited in the research.

Review counts rose gradually. Written-review counts rose from 134 to 138 across the observed period. That describes count movement, not review authenticity or product quality. A variation family may share some public counts.

Confirmed evidence

What checked out00

These checks found support in the public record. They confirm specific facts, not the product as a whole.

Nothing could be independently confirmed from the available record.

Documented concerns

What needs caution00

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 missing07

We looked for these signals but could not settle them from public sources. A gap is not a strike.

Multi-ingredient formula — panel read, serving weight unknown

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.

No data

Research context is available for the listed ingredients

Published sources describe how zinc have been studied. This is ingredient context only; the record does not establish that this product delivers the studied dose or outcome. Sources: NIH ODS — Zinc fact sheet, PubMed search: zinc supplementation trial.

No data

FDA recall appears in this brand's history

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.

No data

No label filed with NIH's public catalog

The NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database has no matching label yet. Ingestion lags the market — recorded as a gap, not a strike.

No data

This item belongs to a catalog variation family

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.

No data

180-day review-count history is on file

Exact-listing history records written-review counts from 134 on 2026-02-01 to 138 on 2026-06-16 (net +4). Count movements can reflect sales, listing variants, collection resets, or moderation; this history does not establish whether reviews are authentic.

No data

Barcode record is too sparse to confirm identity

Open Food Facts resolves 031604043100 to "" (brand not supplied), but that record lacks enough exact brand/product detail to confirm or contradict this listing.

No data

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: 0.4 g of the 0.4 g headline is elderberry. 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

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.

3

Where are the ingredients sourced, and where is the product manufactured?

“Made in USA” can describe only the final bottling step. Ask which country the actives came from and whether the facility is audited.

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 031604043100.

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.
