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.

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. Now Foods recalled a different product on May 8, 2025. FDA has since closed that case. The recalled item was “NOW Nutritional Yeast Powder, Nt. Wt. 10oz. UPC 7 33739 02460 2”. …
Locked evidence record →Open the full source-linked findingNeeds explanationWho is behind it?
Listing brand: NOW Foods · package: Digestive
Ownership and outside records for the listing brand may not describe the branding printed on the package. Confirm the package identity before treating them as the same brand.
Evidence and sources
The exact product listing names “NOW Foods,” while the saved package/panel image reads “Digestive.” This can reflect a product line, catalog error, changed listing, or different packaging; it does not prove substitution. …
Locked evidence record →Open the full source-linked findingCheckedIs the label honest?
Every ingredient shows its amount · 4 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.

- We have not found a public label filing for this exact product.
- Brand ownership is not settled in this record.
These are evidence gaps, not strikes against the product.
Research behind the findings
Dose and research context
We could not match an amount on this product to a studied range for the same ingredient, so these links are ingredient background rather than a measurement of this product.
Background reading
What the research says about these amounts
Not a score. Studies disagree with each other and change over time, so this sits beside the evidence rather than counting toward it — it is here so you can read the sources yourself.
The panel lists 4 g of prebiotic fiber (inulin-type) per serving. Studies we found used 3 g–10 g a day, so this sits inside that range.
0studied 3 g–10 g
Study ranges differ between trials and change as research changes. This is background reading, not a pass, a failure, or a recommendation.
