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 16 separately quantified rows and 1 combined blend total. Ingredients inside a blend do not have separate amounts.
| Panel row | Amount | %DV | What to notice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vitamin A (as Beta-carotene) | 120 mcg RAE | — | |
| Vitamin C (as Ascorbic acid) | 120 mg | — | |
| Vitamin D (as Cholecalciferol) | 20 mcg | — | |
| Vitamin E (as DL-Alpha tocopheryl acetate) | 14 mg | — | |
| Thiamine (B1)(as Thiamine mononitrate) | 6 mg | — | |
| Vitamin B6 (as Pyridoxine HCL) | 8 mg | — | |
| Folate | 1,467 mcg DFE | — | |
| Vitamin B12 (as Cyanocobalamin) | 12 mcg | — | |
| Biotin | 5,000 mcg | — | |
| Pantothenic Acid (B5)(as D-Calcium pantothenate) | 30 mg | — | |
| Calcium (as Calcium carbonate) | 80 mg | — | |
| Iron (as Ferrous fumarate) | 14.5 mg | — | |
| Magnesium (as Magnesium Oxide) | 120 mg | — | |
| Zinc (as Zinc Oxide) | 7 mg | — | |
| Manganese (as Manganese amino acid chelate) | 4 mg | — | |
| Potassium (as Potassium gluconate) | 12 mg | — | |
| Proprietary Blend: | 359 mg | — |
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
Ingredient amounts are hidden inside a blend
The panel lists “Proprietary Blend:” as a combined amount. A blend total can’t tell you whether any single ingredient reaches a dose used in research.
Package brand differs from the listing brand
The exact product listing names “VITAL NUTRITIVE,” while the retained package/panel image reads “Vitalyra Health..” This can reflect a product line, catalog error, changed listing, or different packaging; it does not prove substitution. Confirm the package identity before applying ownership or other brand-level records to this product.
Panel carries documented template or translation artifacts
The panel carries these quoted observations: “Vitamin A (as Beta-carotene) has no unit”; “Folate has no unit”. US-market labels are produced under cGMP controls; these are template or translation artifacts worth checking, not proof that the label is fabricated or that the product is unsafe.
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.
Public label filing not retained
This record does not currently hold an identity-bound public label filing for the exact product. That is a LookCloser coverage gap, not evidence that no filing exists.
UPC valid, no independent record
Check digit passes; no third-party database record found yet. Coverage gaps are common — not a strike.
180-day review-count history is on file
Exact-listing history records written-review counts from 0 on 2026-04-29 to 0 on 2026-04-29 (net +0). 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?
| Claim | Status | What we found |
|---|---|---|
| Benefit claim “…rmone & Gluten Free -Hair Vitamins for Women Supports Healthy Hair: Vital Hair Complex by Vital Nu…” | 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 (as Magnesium Oxide) | shaded = doses used in studies (200 mg–420 mg) · bar = this label | 120 mg — below the studied range |
| Zinc (as Zinc Oxide) | shaded = doses used in studies (8 mg–40 mg) · bar = this label | 7 mg — below the studied range |
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 — 3 of 6 public signals
