3 of 6 public trust signals found · 1 product-specific concern · $0.34 per serving

The short read

This supplement's label states it contains 12mg of Melatonin per serving, which is higher than the doses typically used in sleep research. While the Supplement Facts panel matches the listing and the math checks out, this higher dose is noted as being above the commonly studied range. You can verify this product by comparing the Supplement Facts panel on the bottle to the image shown in the listing.

Why this result?
We ran this product through public-record checks — label math, barcode registries, FDA recall lists, published lab tests. This banner sums up what those checks could and couldn’t confirm. Green means nothing public contradicted the label — not proof it works or is safe. Gray means the data to check simply isn’t public: a gap, not a verdict. We show the evidence; the conclusion is yours.

Confirmed evidence

What checked out03

These checks found support in the public record. They confirm specific facts, not the product as a whole.

Taken the way the research studied it

Nothing in this listing contradicts how these ingredients were studied (melatonin). For example, melatonin: taken before bed; timing matters more than size of dose in the research. Sources: NIH NCCIH — Melatonin, PubMed search: melatonin dose sleep onset.

Confirmed

Every ingredient amount is disclosed

The panel gives a per-ingredient amount rather than hiding quantities inside a proprietary blend, so each one can be compared to published research.

Confirmed

Barcode confirmed in an outside database

UPCitemdb resolves 840250403356 to "Melatonin 12mg | 100 Vegan Gummies | Berry Flavor | For Men and Women | by Carly" (Carlyle) — consistent with this listing.

Confirmed

Documented concerns

What needs caution01

These are documented contradictions or claims that need more evidence. They are separate from missing data.

!

Dose is higher than studies used

label claims 12 mg/serving — above the range commonly used in research (sleep trials commonly use 0.5–5 mg; higher doses are not shown to work better and gummy products have repeatedly been found to differ from their labels). Sources: NIH NCCIH — Melatonin, PubMed search: melatonin dose sleep onset.

Caution

Unresolved public record

What is still missing04

We looked for these signals but could not settle them from public sources. A gap is not a strike.

Listing claim matches the label panel

The listing claims 12 mg; the photo-read Supplement Facts panel shows Melatonin at 12 mg per serving — the listing text and its photo-read panel agree; this is internal consistency, not independent testing.

No data

Cost to reach a studied dose

At 1.0 serving(s) a day to reach the low end of the studied range (0.5–5 mg), this product runs roughly $10 per month. A price observation, not a recommendation.

No data

No label filed with NIH's public catalog

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

No data

180-day review-count history is on file

Exact-listing history records written-review counts from 396 on 2026-01-24 to 428 on 2026-07-16 (net +32). Count movements can reflect sales, listing variants, collection resets, or moderation; this history does not establish whether reviews are authentic.

No data

What 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

Can you send the certificate of analysis (COA) for the lot number on my bottle?

A real COA names the testing laboratory, the test date, the lot it covers, and what was measured. “Third-party tested” with no document behind it is a marketing sentence.

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.

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 840250403356.

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.
