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.
Panel, decoded

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.
vision:claude-cli:subscription Amounts are shown as listed panel data, not independently lab-tested contents.
Every check we ran
Confirmed evidence
What checked out3
These checks found support in the public record. They confirm specific facts, not the product as a whole.
✓
Exact trademark owner identified
USPTO lists METAGENICS, INC. (CORPORATION; LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY) in CALIFORNIA, USA; DELAWARE, USA for the exact brand wordmark. This identifies the USPTO mark owner or applicant; it does not by itself prove who manufactures or sells this product.
Confirmed✓
Barcode confirmed in an outside database
UPCitemdb resolves 755571961761 to "Metagenics PhytoMulti Multivitamin Tablets - for Healthy Aging Cellular Health " (Metagenics) — consistent with this listing.
Confirmed✓
The review count moved gradually, not in one burst
Written reviews rose from 4 to 7 between March 5 and May 30, 2026. The largest rise inside any single 30-day window was about 1, so the count moved in steps rather than in one burst.
ConfirmedDocumented concerns
What needs caution1
These are documented contradictions or claims that need more evidence. They are separate from missing data.
!
Ingredient amounts are hidden inside “Proprietary Phytonutrient
The panel lists “Proprietary Phytonutrient Blend” (400 mg) as a combined amount. A blend total can’t tell you whether any single ingredient reaches a dose used in research.
CautionUnresolved public record
What is still missing6
We looked for these signals but could not settle them from public sources. A gap is not a strike.
…
Multi-ingredient formula — panel read, serving weight unknown
We read the full Supplement Facts panel from the listing-image panel (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.
No data…
Research context is available for the listed ingredients
Published sources describe how magnesium, prebiotic fiber, 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.
No data…
FDA recall appears in this brand's history
This recall is not about the product on this page. Metagenics, Inc. recalled a different product on July 3, 2014. FDA has since closed that case. The recalled item was “UltraBalance Protein Powder, Net Wt. 14.8 oz (420g)”. FDA recorded the reason as “Metagenics is recalling UltraBalance Protein powder because it may contain undeclared soy”. Verify at FDA’s recall database.
No data…
Public label filing not saved
We have not found a public label filing for this exact product. That is a gap in our records, not evidence that no filing exists.
No data…
This item belongs to a catalog variation family
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.
No data…
180-day review-count history is on file
Exact-listing history records written-review counts from 1 on 2025-09-29 to 7 on 2026-05-30 (net +6). Count movements can reflect sales, listing variants, collection resets, or moderation; this history does not establish whether reviews are authentic.
No dataWhat 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
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.
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
What is the amount of each ingredient inside the proprietary blend?
A blend total tells you nothing about whether any single ingredient reaches a dose used in research. Brands may decline — that answer is informative too.
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 755571961761.
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.
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.
| Claim | Status | What we found |
|---|
| Clinical-evidence claim “…The only clinically studied multivitamin formula designed for:…” | 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. |
| Benefit claim “…ANTIOXIDANT & IMMUNE SUPPORT-PhytoMulti goes beyond conventional multivitamins by combining essential micronutrients with clinically researched phytonutrients.…” | 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
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?’
| Ingredient | Where this label sits | Reading |
|---|
| Magnesium (as magnesium citrate) | shaded = doses used in studies (200 mg–420 mg) · bar = this label | 40 mg — below the studied range |
| Dietary Fiber | shaded = doses used in studies (3 g–10 g) · bar = this label | 1 g — below the studied range |
| Zinc (as zinc citrate) | shaded = doses used in studies (8 mg–40 mg) · bar = this label | 15 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
- magnesium — daily oral use; chelated forms (glycinate) are studied for absorption — note labels may state compound mass rather than elemental magnesium, which differs ~7-fold
- zinc — daily oral use; sustained high intakes can interfere with copper absorption — a documented interaction, not advice
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.
