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 nih dsld label publishes an amount for each of its 31 listed rows. That supports ingredient-by-ingredient review; it does not verify the contents.

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.
NIH DSLD label #26003 (public label filing for this exact product) 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.
Label #26003 “Centrum Silver Adults 50+” (Centrum), entered 2013-09-25, with the full Supplement Facts on file. NIH marks this label as off-market (superseded or discontinued version). Company on file: Other — Pfizer, Madison, NJ, USA.
The panel gives a per-ingredient amount rather than hiding quantities inside a proprietary blend, so each one can be compared to published research.
Documented concerns
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
We looked for these signals but could not settle them from public sources. A gap is not a strike.
USPTO returned multiple live supplement-class records for the exact brand wordmark: AMERICAN CYANAMID COMPANY, GlaxoSmithKline Consumer Healthcare Holdings (US) LLC. These records answer who owns registrations for the brand; the separate product-to-owner or manufacturer link remains open.
We read the full Supplement Facts panel from the NIH DSLD label (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, boron, 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 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 846 on 2026-07-03 to 924 on 2026-07-25 (net +78). Count movements can reflect sales, listing variants, collection resets, or moderation; this history does not establish whether reviews are authentic.
Check digit passes; no third-party database record found yet. Coverage gaps are common — not a strike.
What to ask and check
Ask the brand or seller
Which specific study supports this claim — and was it run on this exact formula?
Ask for the citation, how many people took part, the dose used, and whether the study tested this product or just one ingredient in it. Ingredient research is not product evidence.
Were the endorsing professionals compensated, and what exactly did they review?
An endorsement can be genuine and still not mean the product was tested. Ask whether they reviewed the formula, the manufacturing, or only the marketing.
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
Scan the barcode on the package and confirm it reads 305734785927.
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 |
|---|---|---|
| Clinical-evidence claim “…IS CLINICALLY SHOWN TO SLOW BIOLOGICAL AGING*^…” | No evidence located We looked for: a named, citable clinical study of this product or formula | We found no named, citable study of this product or formula. The claim may rest on ingredient research rather than a trial of this product. |
| Professional-endorsement claim “…Centrum Silver is the number 1 Doctor recommended multivitamin brand now shown to support memory and cognition in older adults (1)…” | 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 “…Centrum Silver is the number 1 Doctor recommended multivitamin brand now shown to support memory and cognition in older adults (1)…” | 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. 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 | shaded = doses used in studies (200 mg–420 mg) · bar = this label | 50 mg — below the studied range |
| Boron | shaded = doses used in studies (3 mg–10 mg) · bar = this label | 0.15 mg — below the studied range |
| Zinc | shaded = doses used in studies (8 mg–40 mg) · bar = this label | 11 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.
Documented cautions
Statements from published sources about these ingredients — not advice about this product, and not a complete safety review. Anyone taking medication should talk to a pharmacist or clinician.

Related research & consistency
magnesium — NIH ODS — Magnesium fact sheet · PubMed search: magnesium glycinate supplementation · WebMD: magnesium · ClinicalTrials.gov — 3,206 registered studies
ℹ Use pattern in research: daily oral use; chelated forms (glycinate) are studied for absorption — note labels may state compound mass rather than elemental magnesium, which differs ~7-fold.
boron — NIH ODS — Boron fact sheet · PubMed search: boron supplementation testosterone · ClinicalTrials.gov — 989 registered studies
ℹ Use pattern in research: daily oral use; short-term human studies report hormone-marker changes, with effects on testosterone reported inconsistently across trials.
zinc — NIH ODS — Zinc fact sheet · PubMed search: zinc supplementation trial · ClinicalTrials.gov — 1,598 registered studies
ℹ Use pattern in research: daily oral use; sustained high intakes can interfere with copper absorption — a documented interaction, not advice.
