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.
Every check we ran
Ingredient amounts are hidden inside a blend
The panel lists “Raw Organic Fruit & Vegetable Blend” 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 (collagen peptides, zinc). For example, collagen peptides: daily oral use over 8+ weeks in studies. Sources: PubMed search: collagen peptide supplementation trial, WebMD search: collagen.
UPC independently corroborated
UPCitemdb resolves 890340900395 to "Garden of Life Vitamin Code Raw Zinc 30mg Whole Food Zinc Supplement + Vitamin " (coming soon) — consistent with this listing.
No data yet: Trademark owner candidates are ambiguous
USPTO returned multiple live supplement-related marks with the exact brand wordmark and different registrants. The owner is withheld until the product-to-mark identity is pinned down.
Listing claim matches the Supplement Facts panel
The listing claims 60 mg; the photo-read Supplement Facts panel shows Vitamin C (from culture of Saccharomyces cerevisiae) at 60 mg per serving — the listing text and its photo-read panel agree; this is internal consistency, not independent testing.
Reaching a studied dose costs about $655/month
At 41.7 serving(s) a day to reach the low end of the studied range (2500–15000 mg), this product runs roughly $655 per month. A price observation, not a recommendation.
Not found in NIH's DSLD label registry
The NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database has no matching label yet. Ingestion lags the market — recorded as a gap, not a strike.
FDA recall appears in this brand's history
Brand-level context only, not a finding about this product. Garden Of Life Llc recalled a different or not-exactly-bound product on 2023-10-19: “Undeclared Soy.” (status: Terminated). The recalled product was: “Garden of Life, RM-10 ULTRA, Ultimate Immune System Support60 Vegetarian Caplets, Whole Food Dietary Supplement, 90 Ultra Zorbe Vegetarian Capsules” — not necessarily the product on this page. Verify at FDA’s recall database.
Brand holds NSF/ANSI 173 certification (brand-level)
Garden of Life, LLC appears in NSF’s certified-products registry with 10 certified product(s), but we couldn’t confirm this exact listing is among them. Closest listed product: “RAW Organic Perfect Food Energizer”. Certification covers contents and contaminants — not effectiveness.
180-day review-count history is on file
Exact-listing history records written-review counts from 1,612 on 2026-01-23 to 1,632 on 2026-07-10 (net +20). Count movements can reflect sales, listing variants, collection resets, or moderation; this history does not establish whether reviews are authentic.
This item belongs to a catalog variation family
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.
What the listing promises — claim by claim
Why is this shown?
| Claim | Status | What we found |
|---|---|---|
| Benefit claim “…Vitamin C, Whole Food Supplement for Immune Support, Skin Health, Eye Health and Prostate Health…” | 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 |
|---|---|---|
| collagen peptides | Studies typically use 2.5 g–15 g. This product’s amount could not be read from public sources, so no comparison is possible. | |
| Zinc (from Brown Rice Chelate) | shaded = doses used in studies (8 mg–40 mg) · bar = this label | 30 mg — 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.
Documented cautions
- 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.
