Checked against public sources on August 10, 2026 · LookCloser does not sell or recommend supplements.

Does the marketing hold up?

Every ingredient shows its amount · 8 ingredients listed. Every ingredient shows its real amount — nothing is hidden in a proprietary blend.

Trouble on record?No recalls found

“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.

The checks, one by one

Published research exists for ingredients in this formula. Whether this product’s doses match those studies could not be confirmed.

CheckedIs the label honest?

Every ingredient shows its amount · 8 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.

  • No FDA recall matched this brand in the current search.
  • No dated review-history series is on file yet.

These are evidence gaps, not strikes against the product.

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 6 mg of zinc per serving. Studies we found used 8 mg–40 mg a day, so this sits below that range.

0studied 8 mg–40 mg

Study ranges differ between trials and change as research changes. This is background reading, not a pass, a failure, or a recommendation.
