I realize you can't test every product/brand out there. That being said, I seem to be using brands of vitamins/supplements that more often than not, are not included in your testing (I was previously a member, but dropped my membership for this reason. I recently signed up again, but am finding the same situation).

A Must Have
March 31, 2020

I appreciate the information shared on Consumer Lab and use it before making any supplement purchases. I do wish they were able to test more products in each area and provide updates for those products ranked as a best but are no longer available.

CL has been such a valuable resource over the years, both to keep updated on the latest supplement related research and of course to know which supplements are safe and have accurate labeling.

I rely on ComsumerLab
March 31, 2020

I've subscribed for as long as ConsumerLab has been in existance. I want to say 20 years? I've used it in teaching librarians how to research for consumer health information and even for medical professionals to do the same. Now I mainly use it to check everything and anything I may consider taking for my own or family and friends' health. Great information and excellent citation and verification processes. I'm very happy.

After learning the hard way, I've made a point to search your treasure trove of information before purchasing any supplements. This is more important now than ever as fancy packaging with false claims conceal faulty products.

Go-to for supplement info
March 31, 2020

Consumerlab.com is my go-to site for objective information about supplements and their usefulness or lack of usefulness, and for side effects and interactions. Kudos for a unique and comprehensive source of accurate information. The occasional updates that are pushed to my email are much appreciated, as they cause me to re-evaluate and update supplements for my own use.

Why CL Helps Keep us Healthy
March 31, 2020

It helps to know which supplements are what they say they are. Additional information on what works and what doesn't as well as risks or dangers in taking certain supplements is essential.

"Don't leave home with out it."
March 31, 2020

In light of all the spin, misinformation and bs I'm bombarded with on commercials all day, everyday, I'm secure in the fact, I have a place
Like ConsumerLab, I can go to and get the facts. No biased opinions, no blown out of proportions claims, just the educated truth backed up by
Studies and test trials. Been a member for years and have NO plans to quit.

I rely on Consumer Lab testing and advice. There is too much bad medical information on the internet so it is nice to have a site based on science..
