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.
Every check we ran
Intake method matches the research
Nothing in this listing contradicts how these ingredients were studied (prebiotic fiber). For example, prebiotic fiber: daily use; effects build over weeks as gut flora shift. Sources: NIH ODS — Fiber overview (MVMS context), PubMed search: inulin prebiotic randomized trial.
Each ingredient’s amount is disclosed
The panel gives a per-ingredient amount rather than hiding quantities inside a proprietary blend, so each one can be compared to published research.
Registered in NIH's supplement label database (DSLD)
Label #13866 “MultiHealth Fiber Psyllium Fiber Capsules” (Metamucil), entered 2012-10-01, with the full Supplement Facts on file — see the panel below. Company on file: Manufacturer — Metamucil.
Exact trademark owner identified
USPTO lists Procter & Gamble Company, The (CORPORATION) in OHIO, 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.
UPC independently corroborated
Open Food Facts resolves 037000434870 to "3-IN-1 DAILY FIBER Psyllium Fiber Supplement" (Metamucil) — consistent with this listing.
Multi-ingredient formula — panel read, serving weight unknown
We read the full Supplement Facts panel from the photos (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.
180-day review-count history is on file
Exact-listing history records written-review counts from 1,628 on 2026-01-25 to 1,706 on 2026-07-10 (net +78). Count movements can reflect sales, listing variants, collection resets, or moderation; this history does not establish whether reviews are authentic.
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.
What the listing promises — claim by claim
Why is this shown?
| Claim | Status | What we found |
|---|---|---|
| Professional-endorsement claim “…digestive health by keeping you regular* #1 DOCTOR RECOMMENDED FIBER BRAND. Trusted for over 90 Years. Help…” | Marketing credential We looked for: who the professionals are, whether they were compensated, and what the endorsement covers | A professional endorsement is a marketing credential, not clinical evidence. Public sources don’t establish who was consulted, whether they were paid, or what specifically they reviewed. |
| Benefit claim “…ent, Daily Psyllium Husk Fiber Capsules Help Support Digestive Health by Promoting Regularity* FE…” | Partly supported We looked for: whether the ingredient doses on the label match the doses used in published research | Published research exists for ingredients in this formula — see Related research below. Whether this product’s doses match those studies could not be confirmed. |
“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.
This label vs. the doses studied
Why is this shown?
| Ingredient | Where this label sits | Reading |
|---|---|---|
| Dietary Fiber | shaded = doses used in studies (3 g–10 g) · bar = this label | 2 g — below the studied range |
Matching a studied dose does not mean the product works, and missing it does not mean it fails — it shows whether the label and the research are talking about the same amounts. Not a recommendation to take any amount.
Verifiability profile — 3 of 6 public signals
What this listing gives the public to check. Publishing these signals doesn't prove quality — but withholding them means claims can only be taken on faith.
