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.
We did the comparison: the listing claims 1 g of turmeric (curcuma longa) extract (rhizome) (18%-22% curcuminoids), and the listing-image panel shows 1 g turmeric (curcuma longa) extract (rhizome) (18%-22% curcuminoids) 2 vegetarian capsules. Those amounts agree. This is internal consistency, not independent lab testing.
| Panel row | Amount | %DV | What to notice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Turmeric (Curcuma longa) Extract (Rhizome) (18%-22% curcuminoids) | 1000 mg | — |
FDA rules (21 CFR 101.36) require the amount of each dietary ingredient per serving unless hidden in a listed “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; any remaining comparison concerns the front-label framing.

Every check we ran
Confirmed evidence
These checks found support in the public record. They confirm specific facts, not the product as a whole.
Open Food Facts resolves 850184008749 to "Qunol 1000mg Turmeric" (Qunol) — consistent with this listing.
Written reviews grew from 157 to 172 across 2026-05-13 – 2026-07-22 with no single manufactured spike (largest 30-day gain ~11).
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.
USPTO returned multiple live supplement-class records for the exact brand wordmark: Quten Research Institute, LLC, Quten IP Holdings, LLC. These records answer who owns registrations for the brand; the separate product-to-owner or manufacturer link remains open.
The current image extraction saved 1 ingredient name(s) but no usable amounts. This is a LookCloser processing gap, not evidence that the brand withheld the numbers; dose arithmetic is withheld until the panel is re-read.
Published sources describe how turmeric / curcumin have been studied. This is ingredient context only; the record does not establish that this product delivers the studied dose or outcome. Sources: NIH NCCIH — Turmeric, PubMed search: curcumin bioavailability piperine.
Brand-level context only, not a finding about this product. QUTEN RESEARCH INSTITIUTE LLC recalled a different or not-exactly-bound product on 2025-12-16: “Mold contamination detected for raw material lots that were produced in July and used in finished goods.” (status: Ongoing). The recalled product was: “Qunol, Extra Strength Turmeric Capsule, 1000mg ,HDPE bottle with cap, BIO7771 120 count bottle, BIO7772 120 count bottle ,BIO8281 60 count bottle .” — not necessarily the product on this page. Verify at FDA’s recall database.
This record does not currently hold an matched to this exact product public label filing for the exact product. That is a LookCloser coverage gap, not evidence that no filing exists.
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.
Exact-listing history records written-review counts from 0 on 2026-04-28 to 172 on 2026-07-22 (net +172). Count movements can reflect sales, listing variants, collection resets, or moderation; this history does not establish whether reviews are authentic.
What to ask and check
Ask the brand or seller
Answered by the panel: 1 g of the 1 g headline is curcumin. Which independent lab can confirm that amount in this product?
The panel resolves the front-label arithmetic. The remaining question is lot-specific contents and stability; published category testing gives context, not a test of this product.
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.
Were the endorsing professionals compensated, and what exactly did they review?
An endorsement can be genuine and still not mean the product was tested. Ask whether they reviewed the formula, the manufacturing, or only the marketing.
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
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 850184008749.
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.
What the listing promises — claim by claim
| Claim | Status | What we found |
|---|---|---|
| Professional-endorsement claim “…nse associated with physical overexertion #1 DOCTOR RECOMMENDED EXTRA STRENGTH ULTRA HIGH ABSORPTION WITH HY…” | Marketing credential We looked for: who the professionals are, whether they were compensated, and what the endorsement covers | A professional endorsement is a marketing credential, not clinical evidence. Public sources don’t establish who was consulted, whether they were paid, or what specifically they reviewed. |
| Benefit claim “…ative to turmeric curcumin with black pepper SUPPORTS HEALTHY INFLAMMATION RESPONSE AND JOINT HEAL…” | 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
| Ingredient | Where this label sits | Reading |
|---|---|---|
| Turmeric (Curcuma longa) Extract (Rhizome) ( | shaded = doses used in studies (500 mg–2 g) · bar = this label | 1 g — within 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.
