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.

Is it the real thing?Barcode matches outside records
Trouble on record?Brand history — not this product

“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.

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.

Evidence and sources

This recall is not about the product on this page. Natrol, LLC recalled a different product on April 8, 2021. FDA has since closed that case. The recalled item was “Natrol Melatonin 3 mg, Tab 60 White bottle with purple flip-top cap.…”

Public contextWho is behind it?

Registered owner records: NATROL, INC. · Natrol, Inc. · Natrol LLC

The public ownership record is ambiguous. We show the exact candidates instead of choosing one by name similarity.

Evidence and sources

USPTO returned multiple live supplement-class records for the exact brand wordmark: NATROL, INC., Natrol, Inc., Natrol LLC. These records answer who owns registrations for the brand; the separate product-to-owner or manufacturer link remains open.

CheckedIs the label honest?

Listing claim matches the Supplement Facts panel

The label promise and the Supplement Facts amount agree.

Evidence and sources

The listing claims 200 mg; the photo-read Supplement Facts panel shows 5-HTP (5-Hydroxytryptophan) (from Griffonia simplicifolia) (seed) at 200 mg per serving — the listing text and its photo-read panel agree; this is internal consistency, not independent testing.

CheckedIs the label honest?

Every ingredient shows its amount · 2 ingredients listed.

Every ingredient shows its real amount — nothing is hidden in a proprietary blend.

Evidence and sources

The panel gives a per-ingredient amount rather than hiding quantities inside a proprietary blend, so each one can be compared to published research.

CheckedWho is behind it?

The barcode identity checks out · 047469074432.

The barcode matches, so we are checking the right product rather than a look-alike.

Evidence and sources

UPCitemdb resolves 047469074432 to "Natrol 5-HTP Time Release tablets Promotes a Calm Relaxed Mood Helps Maintain " (Natrol) — consistent with this listing.
