Our review process matches the type of proof to the type of claim. A current package price or return address is best verified from the seller’s checkout and bottle label; a claim about digestion or bowel regularity requires human research; and a claim about FDA rules requires official government sources.
Research Workflow
- Identify the exact claim being made
- Sort the claim by category (label fact, price term, or health outcome)
- Locate the most direct primary source
- Check the publication date and source independence
- Compare the daily dose, herb preparation, and study length against the capsule
- Record any missing details (such as undisclosed proprietary blend weights)
- Write a conclusion no stronger than the underlying proof
- Recheck related pages across the site for consistency
Source Hierarchy for Scientific Claims
We prioritize large human clinical reviews and controlled human trials first, followed by smaller human studies, and finally early laboratory or animal experiments. Seller sales pages and customer stories are never treated as clinical proof.
Claim Tags
- VERIFIED FACT — directly supported by the printed bottle label or a reliable primary source
- SELLER CLAIM — a statement made by the seller in its promotional materials
- INDEPENDENT EVIDENCE — external peer-reviewed research or clinical guidelines
- LIMITATION — an important evidence gap, missing dose weight, or study mismatch
- UNVERIFIED — a claim that lacks sufficient independent proof
Evidence Escalation Audit
Before publishing a page, we check whether our wording has drifted further than the actual source. For example, “supported friendly gut bacteria in a small study” should never be exaggerated into “flushes toxins and cures chronic constipation.”
Zero-Trust Review
We do not assume our own earlier drafts remain accurate forever. Major updates to bottle labels, bundle prices, shipping fees or bonus items are re-checked as if another publisher wrote the page.
Sources & References
We prioritize primary product label information, government regulatory sources, peer-reviewed research and recognized clinical guidance. Seller claims are not treated as independent clinical proof.
