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.
The listing-image panel publishes 3 separately ingredients with amounts and 2 combined blend totals. Ingredients inside a blend do not have separate amounts.
| Panel row | Amount | %DV | What to notice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vitamin A (as Beta Carotene) | 900 mcg | — | |
| Fruits & Vegetables Blend | 690 mg | — | |
| Herbs Blend | 540 mg | — | |
| L-Lysine (as L-Lysine HCl) | 50 mg | — | |
| Hyaluronic Acid (as Sodium Hyaluronate) | 20 mg | — |
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; the open question is whether those listed amounts are independently verified and how they compare with relevant research.
vision:claude-cli:subscription Amounts are shown as listed panel data, not independently lab-tested contents.
Every check we ran
Confirmed evidence
These checks found support in the public record. They confirm specific facts, not the product as a whole.
Label #322294 “Vegan Collagen Booster” (Vital Vitamins), entered 2024-12-21, with the full Supplement Facts on file. Company on file: Distributor — Vital Vitamins, Beverly Hills, CA.
USPTO lists ROYAL LINKER LIMITED (limited company (ltd.); HONG KONG) (OTHER; LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY) in HONG KONG; DELAWARE, 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
These are documented contradictions or claims that need more evidence. They are separate from missing data.
Unresolved public record
We looked for these signals but could not settle them from public sources. A gap is not a strike.
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.
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.
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.
Exact-listing history records written-review counts from 77 on 2025-07-15 to 160 on 2026-08-11 (net +83). Count movements can reflect sales, listing variants, collection resets, or moderation; this history does not establish whether reviews are authentic.
The package says manufactured for: Vital Vitamins, 9903 Santa Monica Blvd Beverly Hills, CA 90212. USPTO names ROYAL LINKER LIMITED (limited company (ltd.); HONG KONG) 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
Ask the brand or seller
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.
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.
Where are the ingredients sourced, and where is the product manufactured?
“Made in USA” can describe only the final bottling step. Ask which country the actives came from and whether the facility is audited.
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
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.
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
| Claim | Status | What we found |
|---|---|---|
| Quality-testing claim “…3rd Party Tested…” | 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. |
| Manufacturing claim “…GMP Compliant…” | 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. |
| Origin claim “…Made in the USA…” | 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. |
| Benefit claim “…Transform Your Hair, Skin, & Nails: Our Vegan Collagen Booster contains a unique blend of plant extracts and vitamins that may help enhance your body's collagen producti” | Not checked yet We looked for: whether the ingredient doses on the label match the doses used in published research | Ingredient-level evidence for this formula isn’t in our knowledge base yet. Recorded as not checked yet — not as a negative. |
“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.
