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.
What the label discloses
The listing-image panel publishes an amount for each of its 10 declared rows. That supports ingredient-by-ingredient review; it does not verify the contents.
| Panel row | Amount | %DV | What to notice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vitamin A | 24% % | — | |
| Vitamin C | 0% % | — | |
| Calcium | 1% % | — | |
| Iron | 15% % | — | |
| Vitamin B1 | 7% % | — | |
| Vitamin B2 | 7% % | — | |
| Vitamin B6 | 2% % | — | |
| Vitamin B12 | 110% % | — | |
| Magnesium | 2% % | — | |
| Zinc | 1% % | — |
FDA rules (21 CFR 101.36) require the amount of each dietary ingredient per serving unless hidden in a declared “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 declared amounts are independently verified and how they compare with relevant research.
vision:google/gemini-flash-1.5 Amounts are shown as declared panel data, not independently lab-tested contents.
Every check we ran
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.
Research context is available for the listed ingredients
Published sources describe how magnesium, 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.
Photo-read pack math is internally consistent
37 servings × 3 g = 111 g, matching the printed net weight 113 g (NET WT. 4oz (113g)). This checks agreement within the photo read; it is not an independent contents test.
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. Sunfood Superfoods recalled a different or not-exactly-bound product on 2014-07-27: “Sunfood Corporation is recalling Organic Carob Powder because it may be contaminated with Salmonella” (status: Terminated). The recalled product was: “Organic Carob Powder, 1 lb., 20 lb., and 55 lb. bags Expiry date: 6/5/2015, UPC Code 803813-04429-8” — not necessarily the product on this page. Verify at FDA’s recall database.
Barcode record is too sparse to confirm identity
Open Food Facts resolves 803813100765 to "Spiruline" (Sunfood), but that record lacks enough exact brand/product detail to confirm or contradict this listing.
180-day review-count history is on file
Exact-listing history records written-review counts from 126 on 2026-01-30 to 131 on 2026-06-07 (net +5). Count movements can reflect sales, listing variants, collection resets, or moderation; this history does not establish whether reviews are authentic.
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.
What the listing promises — claim by claim
Why is this shown?
| Claim | Status | What we found |
|---|---|---|
| Benefit claim “…ESTED USE - For daily antioxidant and immune support, take 3-4 tablets of our chlorella pills 3 t…” | 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 — see Related research below. 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?
| Ingredient | Where this label sits | Reading |
|---|---|---|
| magnesium | Studies typically use 200 mg–420 mg. This product’s amount could not be read from public sources, so no comparison is possible. | |
| zinc | Studies typically use 8 mg–40 mg. This product’s amount could not be read from public sources, so no comparison is possible. | |
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.
Verifiability profile — 2 of 6 public signals
