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.

Every check we ran

UPC independently corroborated

Open Food Facts resolves 766298025216 to "Berberine UltraSorn" (Pure Encapsulations) — consistent with this listing.

No data yet: Label math could not be verified

What this means: the listing doesn't publish net weight, per-serving dose, servings per container, so the dose claim can't be checked against physics from public data. That's neither a pass nor a strike — but it does mean you're taking the label on faith. Checkable products publish these numbers.

Not found in NIH's DSLD label registry

The NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database has no matching label yet. Ingestion lags the market — recorded as a gap, not a strike.

FDA recall appears in this brand's history

Brand-level context only, not a finding about this product. Pure Encapsulations, Inc. recalled a different or not-exactly-bound product on 2017-11-17: “Product contains undeclared sulfites.” (status: Terminated). The recalled product was: “Pure Encapsulations Systemic Enzyme Complex DIETARY SUPPLEMENT 180 CAPSULES UPC: 7 66298 00862 2” — not necessarily the product on this page. Verify at FDA’s recall database.

180-day review-count history is on file

Exact-listing history records written-review counts from 133 on 2026-01-31 to 135 on 2026-02-28 (net +2). Count movements can reflect sales, listing variants, collection resets, or moderation; this history does not establish whether reviews are authentic.

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.
ClaimStatusWhat we found
Clinical-evidence claim
“…c function and cardiometabolic health with a clinically studied, enhanced absorption formula* Bioavailable B…”
No evidence located
We looked for: a named, citable clinical study of this product or formula
No named, citable study of this product or formula was located in public sources. The claim may rest on ingredient-level research rather than a trial of this product.
Quality-testing claim
“…es are carefully manufactured and tested for purity and potency Pure Difference: What we leave out matters,…”
Claimed, not verifiable
We looked for: a named laboratory, a certificate of analysis, or a certification-registry entry
No named laboratory, no certificate of analysis, and no certification-registry entry matching this product was located.
Benefit claim
“…nced Absorption Berberine Phytosome 550 mg - Supports Metabolic & Cardiometabolic Health* - 60 Cap…”
Not assessed
We looked for: whether the ingredient doses on the label match the doses used in published research
Ingredient-level evidence for this formula isn’t in our knowledge base yet. Recorded as not assessed — not as a negative.

“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.
