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.

Ingredient amounts are hidden inside a blend

The panel lists “Synergen Complex® Plus (Patented)” as a combined amount. A blend total can’t tell you whether any single ingredient reaches a dose used in research.

Intake method matches the research

Nothing in this listing contradicts how these ingredients were studied (turmeric / curcumin, ashwagandha, collagen peptides, maca root). For example, turmeric / curcumin: plain curcumin absorbs poorly — most positive trials pair it with piperine (black pepper) or a bioavailability-enhanced form. Sources: NIH NCCIH — Turmeric, PubMed search: curcumin bioavailability piperine.

No physical impossibility in the listed amounts

Technical check only: the panel’s 12 actives sum to 2,617 mg, which fits inside the ≈9,639 mg serving. This means the numbers are physically possible — it does not mean the formula was validated or the contents confirmed.

What the listing promises — claim by claim

Why is this shown?
A listing’s promises are the reason people buy. Each one gets its own row: what was promised, what evidence would settle it, and what we could actually find. We never call a claim false — only whether proof proportionate to it exists on the public record.
ClaimStatusWhat we found
Clinical-evidence claim
“…nce Hair Growth Supplements, Ages 45 and Up, Clinically Tested for Visibly Thicker Hair and Scalp Coverage,…”
No evidence located
We looked for: a named, citable clinical study of this product or formula
No named, citable study of this product or formula was located in public sources. The claim may rest on ingredient-level research rather than a trial of this product.
Professional-endorsement claim
“…for Visibly Thicker Hair and Scalp Coverage, Dermatologist Recommended - 1 Month Supply 1-MONTH SUPPLY: One (1) bot…”
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
“…or visibly thicker, fuller, stronger hair to support women through and beyond menopause (2) FOR W…”
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?
An ingredient can be well-studied at one amount and barely studied at the amount in your bottle. This lines the label up against the doses researchers actually used. It answers ‘are these the same numbers?’ — never ‘should you take this?’
IngredientWhere this label sitsReading
turmeric / curcuminStudies typically use 500 mg–2 g. This product’s amount could not be read from public sources, so no comparison is possible.
ashwagandhaStudies typically use 250 mg–600 mg. This product’s amount could not be read from public sources, so no comparison is possible.
collagen peptidesStudies typically use 2.5 g–15 g. This product’s amount could not be read from public sources, so no comparison is possible.
maca rootStudies typically use 1.5 g–3 g. 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.

Related research & consistency

turmeric / curcuminNIH NCCIH — Turmeric · PubMed search: curcumin bioavailability piperine · WebMD: turmeric · ClinicalTrials.gov — 286 registered studies

Use pattern in research: plain curcumin absorbs poorly — most positive trials pair it with piperine (black pepper) or a bioavailability-enhanced form.

ashwagandhaNIH NCCIH — Ashwagandha · PubMed search: ashwagandha randomized trial · WebMD: ashwagandha · ClinicalTrials.gov — 78 registered studies

Use pattern in research: daily use over 6–12 weeks in studies; extract concentration matters (root powder ≠ standardized extract).

collagen peptidesPubMed search: collagen peptide supplementation trial · WebMD search: collagen · ClinicalTrials.gov — 587 registered studies

Use pattern in research: daily oral use over 8+ weeks in studies.

maca rootPubMed search: Lepidium meyenii randomized trial · NIH NCCIH — Maca · ClinicalTrials.gov — 9 registered studies

Use pattern in research: studied for libido-related endpoints; research generally does not show testosterone changes — the two are often conflated in marketing.
