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 74 separately ingredients with amounts and 2 combined blend totals. Ingredients inside a blend do not have separate amounts.

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.
USPTO lists Universal Protein Supplements Corporation DBA Universal Nutrition, Inc. (CORPORATION) in NEW JERSEY, 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.
Open Food Facts resolves 039442000439 to "Animal Pak Ultimate Foundation" (Animal) — consistent with this listing.
Written reviews grew from 590 to 694 across 2026-02-03 – 2026-07-14 with no single manufactured spike (largest 30-day gain ~155).
Documented concerns
These are documented contradictions or claims that need more evidence. They are separate from missing data.
Unresolved public record
We looked for these signals but could not settle them from public sources. A gap is not a strike.
The observed listing claims third-party testing without naming a lab or certifier. No product-bound report is saved, so the claim cannot be verified as stated. NSF, IFOS, USP, and Informed-Sport were not checked in this record.
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.
Published sources describe how magnesium, turmeric / curcumin, prebiotic fiber, 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 — Magnesium fact sheet, PubMed search: magnesium glycinate supplementation.
This record does not currently hold an matched to this exact product public label filing for the exact product. That is a LookCloser coverage gap, not evidence that no filing exists.
This means only that no enforcement record matched the brand name — it does not mean the product was tested, reviewed, or cleared by FDA. New and untested products also have no recall records.
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 587 on 2026-01-27 to 694 on 2026-07-14 (net +107). 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
Ask the brand or seller
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.
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.
What is the amount of each ingredient inside the proprietary blend?
A blend total tells you nothing about whether any single ingredient reaches a dose used in research. Brands may decline — that answer is informative too.
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
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 039442000439.
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 |
|---|---|---|
| Quality-testing claim “…ified US plant, and every batch is 3rd party lab tested in a pharmaceutical grade facility for quali…” | 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. |
| Manufacturing claim “…rds: All of our products are produced in our GMP certified US plant, and every batch is 3rd p…” | Partly supported We looked for: the facility registration or certificate behind the claim | “GMP-certified” describes factory processes, not what is in the bottle. The claim does not name a certifier or public register that a shopper can check. |
| Benefit claim “…c, Vitamins C, B, D, Amino Acids, and Immune Support - Sports Nutrition Performance - 44 Count Ma…” | 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
| Ingredient | Where this label sits | Reading |
|---|---|---|
| Magnesium (as oxide) | shaded = doses used in studies (200 mg–420 mg) · bar = this label | 400 mg — within the studied range |
| Turmeric Root | shaded = doses used in studies (500 mg–2 g) · bar = this label | 100 mg — below the studied range |
| Dietary Fiber | shaded = doses used in studies (3 g–10 g) · bar = this label | 4 g — within the studied range |
| Zinc (as oxide) | shaded = doses used in studies (8 mg–40 mg) · bar = this label | 30 mg — within 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.

magnesium — NIH ODS — Magnesium fact sheet · PubMed search: magnesium glycinate supplementation · WebMD: magnesium · ClinicalTrials.gov — 3,206 registered studies

turmeric / curcumin — NIH NCCIH — Turmeric · PubMed search: curcumin bioavailability piperine · WebMD: turmeric · ClinicalTrials.gov — 286 registered studies
ℹ Use pattern in research: plain curcumin absorbs poorly — most positive trials pair it with piperine (black pepper) or a bioavailability-enhanced form.
