MaryRuth's Organic Liquid Zinc Drops for Kids
Checked against public sources on July 26, 2026 · LookCloser does not sell or recommend supplements.
Does the marketing hold up?
FDA recall appears in this brand's history. An exact-product recall is a direct signal. A different product from the same firm is company context, not a strike against this item.
Is the dose real?Panel read — dose not verified3 ingredients listed; no advertised amount we could confirm against them
What a serving costs$0.63per serving, at the checked price
Is it tested?Claimed — no lab or certificate found
Who’s behind it?🇺🇸MRO MaryRuth, LLClimited liability company · Delaware, USA
Is it the real thing?✓Barcode matches outside records
Trouble on record?Brand history — not this product
“Couldn’t verify” means we looked and found no public proof — not a mark against the product. Most supplement claims cannot be independently verified by anyone, so grey is the normal state of this industry.

Marketing claims, checked
The checks, one by one
The public sources did not settle the marketing promises on this label.
◐Partly confirmed2
“of Common Allergens: Kids Liquid Ionic Zinc by MaryRuth's is USDA Organic, Non-GMO, Vegan, Made in a GMP”
Evidence →“GMP-certified” describes factory processes, not what is in the bottle. The claim does not name a certifier or public register that a shopper can check.
Ingredient research can support context, but it is not a trial of this exact product.
?Couldn’t verify independently1
“tested for 200+ toxins & contaminants, as well as verified for product label”
Evidence →No named laboratory or lot-specific certificate was found for this exact product. No exact brand product page was available for a document check. NSF, IFOS, USP, and Informed-Sport were not checked in this record. This is a public-evidence limit, not a finding that testing did not occur.
We looked and found no public proof. That does not count against the product.

FDA recall appears in this brand's history
An exact-product recall is a direct signal. A different product from the same firm is company context, not a strike against this item.
Evidence and sources
This recall is not about the product on this page. MARY RUTH ORGANICS recalled a different product on October 28, 2021. FDA has since closed that case. The recalled item was “MaryRuth's Organic Infants Liquid Probiotic; Unflavored, a Dietary Supplement. 1 fl. oz.…”

Every ingredient shows its amount · 3 ingredients listed.
Every ingredient shows its real amount — nothing is hidden in a proprietary blend.
Evidence and sources
The panel gives a per-ingredient amount rather than hiding quantities inside a proprietary blend, so each one can be compared to published research.

- We have not found a public label filing for this exact product.

Research behind the findings
Dose and research context
We could not match an amount on this product to a studied range for the same ingredient, so these links are ingredient background rather than a measurement of this product.
Background reading
What the research says about these amounts
Not a score. Studies disagree with each other and change over time, so this sits beside the evidence rather than counting toward it — it is here so you can read the sources yourself.
The panel lists 6 mg of zinc per serving. Studies we found used 8 mg–40 mg a day, so this sits below that range.
0studied 8 mg–40 mg
Study ranges differ between trials and change as research changes. This is background reading, not a pass, a failure, or a recommendation.
