Not all botanical extracts are created equal. To help you navigate complex ingredient labels, we evaluate every product against four rigorous benchmarks.
We measure the exact percentage of therapeutically active components, not just total herb powder weight.
Rigorous analysis for heavy metals like lead, arsenic, and cadmium as well as pesticide residues.
Identifying hidden binders, flow agents like magnesium stearate, and artificial coloring agents.
Verifying if the crop is grown in native microclimates or mass-farmed in high-pollution zones.
Our team regularly commissions independent blind testing on consumer wellness products.
Our latest tests of nine popular turmeric brands revealed that three contained less than half of their advertised curcuminoid percentages.
Two imported ginseng formulations tested positive for lead concentrations exceeding safe daily threshold guidelines by over 15%.
Over 60% of mushroom supplements compared rely strictly on grain-grown mycelium rather than nutrient-dense organic fruiting bodies.
