“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.

“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.

◐Partly confirmed2
“Mood & Athletic Support, 5% Withanolides with Black Pepper Extract for Maximum Absorption,”
Evidence →Published research exists for ingredients in this formula. Whether this product’s doses match those studies could not be confirmed.
Ingredient research can support context, but it is not a trial of this exact product.
△Claimed without support found1
“Clinically Proven”
Evidence →We found no named, citable study of this product or formula. The claim may rest on ingredient research rather than a trial of this product.
?Couldn’t verify independently1
“TESTED”
Evidence →No named laboratory or lot-specific certificate was found for this exact product. The exact brand page names no testing issuer and links no product-bound report. 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.

Registered owner records: JB7, LLC · ENERGIQUE, INC.
The public ownership record is ambiguous. We show the exact candidates instead of choosing one by name similarity.
Evidence and sources
USPTO returned multiple live supplement-class records for the exact brand wordmark: JB7, LLC, ENERGIQUE, INC.. These records answer who owns registrations for the brand; the separate product-to-owner or manufacturer link remains open.
Locked evidence record →Open the full source-linked findingCheckedIs the label honest?
Every ingredient shows its amount · 2 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.

The barcode identity checks out · 854226008254.
The barcode matches, so we are checking the right product rather than a look-alike.
Evidence and sources
The brand's store lists this exact barcode as “KSM-66 Ashwagandha” (variant: Default Title) — identity confirmed across retailer listings.

- No FDA recall matched this brand in the current search.

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 1 g of ashwagandha per serving. Studies we found used 250 mg–600 mg a day, so this sits above that range.
0studied 250 mg–600 mg
Study ranges differ between trials and change as research changes. This is background reading, not a pass, a failure, or a recommendation.

Review pages
Does the brand page tell the same story?
Brand page 4.80/5 · retailer 4.5/5inspect
The exact brand page is higher by 0.30 points. The brand page publishes 519; the retailer surface shows 7,584. Different systems can collect different review pools, so this is a signal to inspect, not proof that reviews were manipulated.
The brand page did not expose a complete star-by-star breakdown in the captured structured data, so LookCloser cannot test whether lower-star reviews were omitted. Source: exact barcode-bound brand product page · retailer surface · counts do not prove authenticity.
