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
The product lists 15 mg of Zinc per serving, which aligns with the Supplement Facts panel. This amount is generally considered a supplemental dose and is within the tolerable upper intake limit when looking at a full day's intake. It's important to note that the UPC for this product appears to resolve to a different item according to external databases. You can visually compare the "Supplement Facts" panel on the bottle with the one shown in the product images.
Confirmed evidence
These checks found support in the public record. They confirm specific facts, not the product as a whole.
Nothing in this listing contradicts how these ingredients were studied (magnesium, zinc). For example, 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. Sources: NIH ODS — Magnesium fact sheet, PubMed search: magnesium glycinate supplementation.
The panel gives a per-ingredient amount rather than hiding quantities inside a proprietary blend, so each one can be compared to published research.
Label #50700 “Mineral Balance” (Jarrow Formulas), entered 2015-09-25, with the full Supplement Facts on file — see the panel below. NIH marks this label as off-market (superseded or discontinued version). Company on file: Distributor — Jarrow Formulas, Los Angeles, CA.
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.
What this means: the listing doesn't publish net weight, per-serving dose, 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.
label states 15 mg/serving — about 38% of the adult daily reference (adult RDA 8–11 mg; NIH sets 40 mg/day as the tolerable upper limit for adults). A single serving isn’t meant to supply a full day, so this is context, not a shortfall. Caveat: chelate and gluconate labels may state compound mass rather than elemental zinc. Sources: NIH ODS — Zinc fact sheet, PubMed search: zinc supplementation trial.
Brand-level context only, not a finding about this product. Jarrow Formulas Inc recalled a different or not-exactly-bound product on 2018-01-15: “A higher than normal micro result was found at the six month time point for one lot of Liquid L-Carnitine.” (status: Terminated). The recalled product was: “Jarrow Formulas Liquid L-Carnitine; 16 fl oz. (475 ml) bottle, dietary supplement; product number 102006; UPC 7 90011 02006 6; Vitamin B5 10 mg; L-Carnitine 1000 mg; Other i” — not necessarily the product on this page. Verify at FDA’s recall database.
Open Food Facts resolves 790011130086 to "Zinc Balance" (brand not supplied), but that record lacks enough exact brand/product detail to confirm or contradict this listing.
Exact-listing history records written-review counts from 548 on 2026-05-26 to 551 on 2026-07-21 (net +3). Count movements can reflect sales, listing variants, collection resets, or moderation; this history does not establish whether reviews are authentic.
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.
What to ask and check
Check for yourself — no one’s permission needed
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.
Scan the barcode on the package and confirm it reads 790011130086.
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.
