Does the marketing hold up?
FDA recall appears in this brand's history. An exact-product recall is a direct signal. A different product from the same firm is company context, not a strike against this item.
Is the dose real?Panel read — dose not verified1 ingredient listed; no advertised amount we could confirm against them
What a serving costsNo price found for this exact barcode
Is it tested?No testing claim made
Who’s behind it?No exact match in USPTO
Is it the real thing?No barcode publishedso it can’t be matched against certification, recall or other retailer records
Trouble on record?Brand history — not this product
“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.

Every ingredient shows its amount · 1 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.
