MODERATE public verifiability
This product can't be verified from public data Neither good nor bad — the checks below show what this listing publishes and what it withholds. Verifiable products publish more. Evidence availability only; this does not establish safety or effectiveness.
3 of 6 public trust signals found · 0 product-specific concerns · $3.33 per serving
The short read
The product label lists the specific amount for each ingredient, which is helpful for comparison with research. It also confirms that the amounts on the label are physically possible. However, the claim of third-party testing is not substantiated by naming a specific lab or certifier, so those results cannot be confirmed from this listing. You can verify the UPC code on the bottle matches the one listed on the product's packaging.
Why this result?
We ran this product through public-record checks — label math, barcode registries, FDA recall lists, published lab tests. This banner sums up what those checks could and couldn’t confirm. Green means nothing public contradicted the label — not proof it works or is safe. Gray means the data to check simply isn’t public: a gap, not a verdict. We show the evidence; the conclusion is yours.
Confirmed evidence
What checked out03
These checks found support in the public record. They confirm specific facts, not the product as a whole.
✓
Taken the way the research studied it
Nothing in this listing contradicts how these ingredients were studied (turmeric / curcumin, ashwagandha). For example, turmeric / curcumin: plain curcumin absorbs poorly — most positive trials pair it with piperine (black pepper) or a bioavailability-enhanced form. Sources: NIH NCCIH — Turmeric, PubMed search: curcumin bioavailability piperine.
Confirmed
✓
Every ingredient 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.
Confirmed
✓
Barcode confirmed in an outside database
Open Food Facts resolves 198168099063 to "Soursop Bitters" (Serene Herbs) — consistent with this listing.

What needs caution00
These are documented contradictions or claims that need more evidence. They are separate from missing data.
No contradictions or product-specific cautions were found at this check depth.
Unresolved public record
What is still missing05
We looked for these signals but could not settle them from public sources. A gap is not a strike.
…
“Lab tested” claimed, but no lab or report named
The listing claims third-party testing without naming any lab or certifier, so the claim can't be verified as stated.
No data
…
Listed amounts fit the serving
Technical check only: the panel’s 9 actives sum to 31,022 mg, which fits inside the ≈30,000 mg serving. This means the numbers are physically possible — it does not mean the formula was validated or the contents confirmed.
No data
…
Photo-read pack math is internally consistent
16 servings × 30 g = 480 g, matching the printed net weight 473 g (16 FL OZ (473mL)). This checks agreement within the photo read; it is not an independent contents test.
No data
…
No label filed with NIH's public catalog
The NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database has no matching label yet. Ingestion lags the market — recorded as a gap, not a strike.

180-day review-count history is on file
Exact-listing history records written-review counts from 1,265 on 2026-01-23 to 3,493 on 2026-07-14 (net +2,228). 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
What would settle the open questions
Why is this shown?
Everything we couldn’t verify is something a person can still ask about. Rather than leave gaps sitting as dead ends, we turn each one into a specific question — the exact document, citation, or number that would settle it — plus the things you can confirm yourself with the bottle in your hand.
Ask the brand or seller
1
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.
2
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.
3
Where are the ingredients sourced, and where is the product manufactured?
“Made in USA” can describe only the final bottling step. Ask which country the actives came from and whether the facility is audited.
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
1
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.
2
Scan the barcode on the package and confirm it reads 198168099063.
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.
3
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.
