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.
Panel, decoded
The 12 mg melatonin claim matches the panel
MARKETING12 mg — per-serving claim
PANELMelatonin 10 mg — same amount
matches panelWe did the comparison: the listing claims 12 mg of melatonin, and the listing-image panel shows 10 mg melatonin 2 vegan gummies. Those amounts agree. This is internal consistency, not independent lab testing.

Mass check · assumptions shown
3 g listed contents = 0 g major actives + 3 g carbohydrate
Assume 4 pectin gummies × 2.5–3.5 g each = 10–14 g serving. That leaves roughly 0–2 g for water, pectin, sweetener, acid, and flavor. Serving weight is not printed, so this is a warning, not a closed impossibility.
FDA rules (21 CFR 101.36) require the amount of each dietary ingredient per serving unless hidden in a listed “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; any remaining comparison concerns the front-label framing.

Every check we ran
Confirmed evidence
What checked out2
These checks found support in the public record. They confirm specific facts, not the product as a whole.
Confirmed
Exact trademark owner identified
USPTO lists PRIPD, LLC (LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY) in NEW YORK, USA for the exact brand wordmark. This identifies the USPTO mark owner or applicant; it does not by itself prove who manufactures or sells this product.
Documented concerns
What needs caution2
These are documented contradictions or claims that need more evidence. They are separate from missing data.
The label says 3 g of melatonin in 4 gummies — but not what thos
A serving is 4 gummies, and the panel lists 3,000 mg — 3 g — of melatonin in that serving. What the panel doesn’t give is the one number needed to check it: what a serving weighs. Gummies of this type usually run somewhere around 2.5 to 3.5 grams each, which would put 4 of them near 10 to 14 grams. If that holds here, melatonin would be a high share of the serving’s weight, and that is why we stopped on this number. But we did not weigh these gummies. The 2.5–3.5 gram figure is a general estimate for the format, not a measurement of this product. One published number would settle it: the weight of one gummy, or of a 4-gummy serving. Until then we can’t confirm the 3 g and we can’t dispute it. Nothing here says the product is short — only that the label doesn’t let anyone check. Checked September 3, 2026.
Dose is higher than studies used
label claims 12 mg/serving — above the range commonly used in research (sleep trials commonly use 0.5–5 mg; higher doses are not shown to work better and gummy products have repeatedly been found to differ from their labels). Sources: NIH NCCIH — Melatonin, PubMed search: melatonin dose sleep onset.
Unresolved public record
What is still missing4
We looked for these signals but could not settle them from public sources. A gap is not a strike.
Listing claim roughly matches the Supplement Facts panel
Listing: 12 mg. Panel (photo-read Supplement Facts panel): Melatonin at 10 mg per serving — close but not exact; serving-count phrasing often explains the gap.
Research context is available for the listed ingredients
Published sources describe how melatonin have been studied. This is ingredient context only; the record does not establish that this product delivers the studied dose or outcome. Sources: NIH NCCIH — Melatonin, PubMed search: melatonin dose sleep onset.
180-day review-count history is on file
Exact-listing history records written-review counts from 592 on 2025-09-24 to 598 on 2026-01-03 (net +6). Count movements can reflect sales, listing variants, collection resets, or moderation; this history does not establish whether reviews are authentic.
Package and trademark records name different responsible entitie
The package says manufactured by: Carlyle Nutritionals LLC, Melville, NY 11747 USA. USPTO names PRIPD, LLC as the exact wordmark owner. That can be a normal distributor, manufacturer, or licensing relationship; the saved records do not establish the relationship.
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
Can you send the certificate of analysis (COA) for the lot number on my bottle?
A real COA names the testing laboratory, the test date, the lot it covers, and what was measured. “Third-party tested” with no document behind it is a marketing sentence.
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
Is this label filed with NIH’s Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD)?
Filing is voluntary, so absence proves nothing — but a filed label puts the full ingredient table on public record where anyone can read it.
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.
What the listing promises — claim by claim
Why is this shown?
A listing’s promises are the reason people buy. Each one gets its own row: what was promised, what evidence would settle it, and what we could actually find. We never call a claim false — only whether proof proportionate to it exists on the public record.
| Claim | Status | What we found |
|---|---|---|
| Quality-testing claim “…CARLYLE MANUFACTURERS: Laboratory Tested, Trusted Ingredients, Superior Quality, 100% Guaranteed!…” | Claimed, not verifiable We looked for: the observed listing, saved brand product page, any linked COA or test report; NSF, IFOS, USP, Informed-Sport were not queried | No named laboratory or lot-specific certificate was found for this exact product. A related brand page names no testing issuer and links no product-bound report; its UPC is not published. NSF, IFOS, USP, and Informed-Sport were not checked in this record. This is a public-evidence limit, not a finding that testing did not occur. |
“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?
An ingredient can be well-studied at one amount and barely studied at the amount in your bottle. This lines the label up against the doses researchers actually used. It answers ‘are these the same numbers?’ — never ‘should you take this?’
| Ingredient | Where this label sits | Reading |
|---|---|---|
| Melatonin | shaded = doses used in studies (0.5 mg–5 mg) · bar = this label | 10 mg — above 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.
