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.
What the label discloses
The listing-image panel publishes an amount for each of its 1 declared row. That supports ingredient-by-ingredient review; it does not verify the contents.
| Panel row | Amount | %DV | What to notice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chromium (as chromium picolinate) | 1000 mcg | — |
FDA rules (21 CFR 101.36) require the amount of each dietary ingredient per serving unless hidden in a declared “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; the open question is whether those declared amounts are independently verified and how they compare with relevant research.
vision:google/gemini-flash-1.5 Amounts are shown as declared panel data, not independently lab-tested contents.
Every check we ran
Each ingredient’s amount is disclosed
The panel gives a per-ingredient amount rather than hiding quantities inside a proprietary blend, so each one can be compared to published research.
No data yet: Label math could not be verified
The retained listing evidence does not establish net weight, per-serving dose, so the dose claim cannot yet be checked against serving arithmetic. This is a neutral evidence gap, not a pass or strike.
No data yet: Testing claimed — documentation not found
The listing claims third-party testing without naming any lab or certifier, so the claim can't be verified as stated.
FDA recall appears in this brand's history
Brand-level context only, not a finding about this product. BEST NUTRITIONALS LLC recalled a different or not-exactly-bound product on 2022-08-29: “Best Nutritionals LLC 120 Centennial Ave, Piscataway NJ 08854, is initiating a recall of Fenugreek 610 mg , 360 Capsules ,in White Plastic HDPE bottles because the product has the potential to be contaminated with Salmo” (status: Terminated). The recalled product was: “White plastic bottle with green, gold, and blue labeling containing 360, 610mg hard gelatin capsules of Fenugreek seed powder, labeled in part, "Best Naturals Fenugreek Premium Her” — not necessarily the product on this page. Verify at FDA’s recall database.
180-day review-count history is on file
Exact-listing history records written-review counts from 633 on 2026-01-30 to 666 on 2026-07-21 (net +33). 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 |
|---|---|---|
| Quality-testing claim “…um Picolinate 1000 mcg 120 Tablets 3rd party Lab tested for purity and quality. 1000 mcg (1mg) of ch…” | Claimed, not verifiable We looked for: a named laboratory, a certificate of analysis, or a certification-registry entry | No named laboratory, no certificate of analysis, and no certification-registry entry matching this product was located. |
| Manufacturing claim “…on-GMO and Gluten-Free. Proudly made in USA; GMP compliant; FDA registered facility. No artif…” | Claimed, not verifiable We looked for: the facility registration or certificate behind the claim | Facility-level claims can be accurate and still say nothing about this product’s contents. No registration document was located. |
| Origin claim “…per bottle. Non-GMO and Gluten-Free. Proudly made in USA; GMP compliant; FDA registered facility. No…” | Claimed, not verifiable We looked for: customs records or label filings showing where ingredients were sourced and where it was made | “Made in USA” can describe only final bottling. Ingredient-sourcing records were not located for this product. |
“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.
