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 0.85 mg vitamin a (as retinyl palmitate) claim matches the panel
MARKETING0.85 mg — listing title
PANELVitamin A (as retinyl palmitate) 0.375 mg — same amountCalcium (as malate and ascorbate) 225 mg + Magnesium (as citrate-malate) 100 mg + Bioflavonoids (from citrus) 200 mg
matches panelWe did the comparison: the listing claims 0.85 mg of vitamin a (as retinyl palmitate), and the listing-image panel shows 0.375 mg vitamin a (as retinyl palmitate) 3 capsules. Those amounts agree. This is internal consistency, not independent lab testing.

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 out3
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 Vitanica, LLC (LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY) in OREGON, 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.
The review count moved gradually, not in one burst
Written reviews rose from 21 to 22 between April 6 and July 14, 2026. No single 30-day window in the dated series shows a rise.
Documented concerns
What needs caution1
These are documented contradictions or claims that need more evidence. They are separate from missing data.
The listing says 1 mg of vitamin a; the panel says 0 mg
We could not find an explanation for the difference — no blend, extract ratio, compound form or multi-capsule serving accounts for it. You are getting 0.38 mg of vitamin a per serving. Worth asking the brand which number describes the capsule you swallow.
Unresolved public record
What is still missing6
We looked for these signals but could not settle them from public sources. A gap is not a strike.
Multi-ingredient formula — panel read, serving weight unknown
We read the full Supplement Facts panel from the listing-image panel (below), but the label doesn’t state a serving weight, so the arithmetic can’t run. A gap in the label’s information, not evidence of a problem.
Research context is available for the listed ingredients
Published sources describe how magnesium, zinc have been studied. This is ingredient context only; the record does not establish that this product delivers the studied dose or outcome. Sources: NIH ODS — Magnesium fact sheet, PubMed search: magnesium glycinate supplementation.
No recall found — which is not the same as being tested
This means only that no enforcement record matched the brand name — it does not mean the product was tested, reviewed, or cleared by FDA. New and untested products also have no recall records.
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 21 on 2026-04-06 to 22 on 2026-07-14 (net +1). 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: VITANICA, 12401 SW Leveton Dr Tualatin, OR 9706. USPTO names Vitanica, 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
Answered by the panel: the 0.00085 g listing number equals Pro Vitamin A (as natural mixed carotenoids) 1.5 mg + Folate (as L-5 Methylfolate) 0.85 mg. What lot-specific document confirms those listed amounts?
The panel resolves what the headline number includes. The remaining question is whether the product in hand matches those listed amounts; ask for a lot-specific certificate of analysis.
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 |
|---|---|---|
| Manufacturing claim “…Trusted for Over 30 Years: Vitanica products are made in manufacturing facilities that are third-party certified and follow Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) to ensure ” | Partly supported We looked for: the facility registration or certificate behind the claim | “GMP-certified” describes factory processes, not what is in the bottle. The claim does not name a certifier or public register that a shopper can check. |
| Benefit claim “…Complete Daily Multivitamin for Women: Hypoallergenic, vegan & gluten-free blend of 23 essential vitamins & minerals - including vitamins A, C, D & B-complex - to suppor” | Partly supported We looked for: whether the ingredient doses on the label match the doses used in published research | Published research exists for ingredients in this formula. Whether this product’s doses match those studies could not be confirmed. |
“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 |
|---|---|---|
| Magnesium (as citrate-malate) | shaded = doses used in studies (200 mg–420 mg) · bar = this label | 100 mg — below the studied range |
| Zinc (as picolinate) | shaded = doses used in studies (8 mg–40 mg) · bar = this label | 10 mg — within 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.
Documented cautions
- magnesium — daily oral use; chelated forms (glycinate) are studied for absorption — note labels may state compound mass rather than elemental magnesium, which differs ~7-fold
- zinc — daily oral use; sustained high intakes can interfere with copper absorption — a documented interaction, not advice
Statements from published sources about these ingredients — not advice about this product, and not a complete safety review. Anyone taking medication should talk to a pharmacist or clinician.
