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.

UPC resolves to a different product

Open Food Facts lists 047469073329 as "Melatonin 5mg" () — which does not match this listing. Recorded as a discrepancy to explain, not proof of fraud.

Label math is physically consistent

Claimed melatonin 5.0 mg is 0% of the ≈2,520 mg serving (listing net weight ÷ unit count (single unit — no servings stated)) — within physical limits.

Listing claim matches the Supplement Facts panel

The listing claims 5 mg; the photo-read Supplement Facts panel shows Melatonin at 5 mg per serving. The two independent statements agree.

Melatonin dose matches published studies

label claims 5 mg/serving — within the range commonly used in research (sleep trials commonly use 0.5–5 mg; higher doses are not shown to work better and gummy products have repeatedly been found to differ from their labels). Sources: NIH NCCIH — Melatonin, PubMed search: melatonin dose sleep onset.

Intake method matches the research

Nothing in this listing contradicts how these ingredients were studied (melatonin). For example, melatonin: taken before bed; timing matters more than size of dose in the research. Sources: NIH NCCIH — Melatonin, PubMed search: melatonin dose sleep onset.

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.

No data yet: Review authenticity: not yet analyzed

Marketplace rating 4.7★ across 17,563 ratings. Authenticity not analysed: burst, purge and stockout patterns need price/review history.

Reaching a studied dose costs about $4/month

At 1.0 serving(s) a day to reach the low end of the studied range (0.5–5 mg), this product runs roughly $4 per month. A price observation, not a recommendation.

i

Not found in NIH's DSLD label registry

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

Past FDA recall on record for this brand (closed)

Brand-level history, not a finding about this product. Natrol, LLC recalled a product on 2021-04-08: “One lot of ALA 300 mg Cap-50 were labeled at Melatonin 3 mg Tab-60.” (status: Terminated, case closed). The recalled product was: “Natrol Melatonin 3 mg, Tab 60 White bottle with purple flip-top cap. Fall asleep faster, Stay asleep longer, 100$ Drug Free 1 Tablet 20 minutes before bedtime. Manufactured by N” — not necessarily the product on this page. Verify at FDA’s recall database.

What the listing promises — claim by claim

Why is this shown?
A listing’s promises are the reason people buy. Each one gets its own row: what was promised, what evidence would settle it, and what we could actually find. We never call a claim false — only whether proof proportionate to it exists on the public record.
ClaimStatusWhat we found
Manufacturing claim
“…FLAVORS OR SWEETENERS 100% DRUG FREE NON-GMO GMP CERTIFIED PRACTICES”
Claimed, not verifiable
We looked for: the facility registration or certificate behind the claim
Facility-level claims can be accurate and still say nothing about this product’s contents. No registration document was located.
Benefit claim
“Natrol Melatonin 5 mg Gummies, Sleep Support for Adults, 90 Count | Strawberry-flavored,…”
Partly supported
We looked for: whether the ingredient doses on the label match the doses used in published research
Ingredient evidence exists; on dose: label claims 5 mg/serving — within the range commonly used in research (sleep trials commonly use 0.5–5 mg; higher doses are not shown to work better and gummy products have repeatedly been found to differ from their labels).

“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?
An ingredient can be well-studied at one amount and barely studied at the amount in your bottle. This lines the label up against the doses researchers actually used. It answers ‘are these the same numbers?’ — never ‘should you take this?’
IngredientWhere this label sitsReading
Melatonin
shaded = doses used in studies (0.5 mg–5 mg) · bar = this label
5 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.

Label math — claimed dose vs. serving mass
Why is this shown?
Simple physics: the claimed dose has to weigh less than the whole serving. We compare the milligrams promised on the label to the weight of one serving, from the label itself. If the claim fits — even at a small percentage, which is normal, since servings include binders and flavoring — the label is at least physically possible. Only a lab test can confirm what’s actually inside.
claimed melatonin 5 mg0.2% of serving mass — tiny doses are normal for potent activesserving ≈ 2,520 mg

The claimed melatonin dose of 5 mg fits within the ≈2,520 mg serving — physically possible. Only a lab test can confirm what’s actually inside.

A low percentage isn’t a red flag — most servings are mostly carrier, binder, and flavoring.

Show the arithmetic
melatonin: 5 mg claimed ÷ 2,520 mg serving mass = 0%. Serving mass source: serving size printed on the packaging (photo-read from listing images). Redo it yourself — that’s the point.
