Does the marketing hold up?
Couldn’t verify means public proof was not found; it is not a mark against the product. Ingredient research is not treated as a trial of this exact product.

“Clinically tested” or “science-backed”
Evidence →No named, citable study of this product or formula was located in public sources. The claim may rest on ingredient-level research rather than a trial of this product.

GMP or manufacturing-quality language
Evidence →Facility-level claims can be accurate and still say nothing about this product’s contents. No registration document was located.

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.

Listing claim matches the Supplement Facts panel
What is advertised is what the label declares. This checks internal consistency; it is not an independent test of the contents.
Evidence and sources
The listing claims 26 mg; the photo-read Supplement Facts panel shows Iron (as fermented iron bisglycinate) at 26 mg per serving — the listing text and its photo-read panel agree; this is internal consistency, not independent testing.

Listing claim matches the label panel
The listing claims 26 mg; the photo-read Supplement Facts panel shows Iron (as fermented iron bisglycinate) at 26 mg per serving — the listing text and its photo-read panel agree; this is internal consistency, not independent testing.
FDA recall appears in this brand's history
Brand-level context only, not a finding about this product. FoodState, Inc recalled a different or not-exactly-bound product on 2016-04-15: “Multi Vitamin label fails to have required warning statement for iron and child resistant cap” (status: Terminated). The recalled product was: “MegaFood Multi for Women 40+, Multivitamin & Mineral Dietary Supplement packaged in glass bottles UPC:5149410321 -Packaged 60 tablets; UPC:5149410322 -Packaged 120 tablets” — not necessarily the product on this page.

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.
180-day review-count history is on file
Exact-listing history records written-review counts from 1,600 on 2026-01-28 to 1,713 on 2026-07-21 (net +113). Count movements can reflect sales, listing variants, collection resets, or moderation; this history does not establish whether reviews are authentic.
What to ask and check
What would settle the open questions
Why is this shown?
Everything we couldn’t verify is something a person can still ask about. Rather than leave gaps sitting as dead ends, we turn each one into a specific question — the exact document, citation, or number that would settle it — plus the things you can confirm yourself with the bottle in your hand.
Ask the brand or seller
1
Which specific study supports this claim — and was it run on this exact formula?
Ask for the citation, how many people took part, the dose used, and whether the study tested this product or just one ingredient in it. Ingredient research is not product evidence.
2
What is the product’s UPC or GTIN?
The barcode is how a product gets matched to outside records — certification registries, label databases, recall data. Without it, almost nothing can be cross-checked.
3
What is the amount of each ingredient inside the proprietary blend?
A blend total tells you nothing about whether any single ingredient reaches a dose used in research. Brands may decline — that answer is informative too.
Most brands and sellers publish a contact route. A clear answer adds evidence to the record; no answer leaves the question open.
Check for yourself — no one’s permission needed
1
Compare the panel on the bottle in your hand to the one shown in this record.
Ours was read from listing photos and can contain reading errors. The physical label is the source of truth — if they disagree, tell us and we’ll correct the record.
2
Check the lot number and expiry on the bottle against any COA you’re given.
A certificate that doesn’t name your lot doesn’t describe what you’re holding.
These are the open questions on this specific record — not a warning about the product, and not a suggestion to buy or avoid it. Getting them answered is how you decide for yourself.
