Checked against public sources on July 25, 2026 · LookCloser does not sell or recommend supplements.
Does the marketing hold up?
FDA recall appears in this brand's history An exact-product recall is a direct signal. A different product from the same firm is company context, not a strike against this item.
“Couldn’t verify” means we looked and found no public proof — not a mark against the product. Most supplement claims cannot be independently verified by anyone, so grey is the normal state of this industry.
The public sources did not settle the marketing promises on this label.
Published research exists for ingredients in this formula — see Related research below. Whether this product’s doses match those studies could not be confirmed.
Ingredient research can support context, but it is not a trial of this exact product.

This answers who owns registrations for the brand wordmark. It does not by itself prove which entity made, imported, or sold this specific product. Open USPTO source ↗
The label amount is shown beside the ranges used in the linked ingredient studies.
Not a score. Studies disagree with each other and change over time, so this sits beside the evidence rather than counting toward it — it is here so you can read the sources yourself.
The panel lists 1 mg of zinc per serving. Studies we found used 8 mg–40 mg a day, so this sits below that range.
Study ranges differ between trials and change as research changes. This is background reading, not a pass, a failure, or a recommendation.
