Great Tool
September 19, 2024

We've found your website to be very helpful for years now. We are not on any, social media sites, and don't wish to be. Hence, we don't really care what others have to say about various health aids, just the facts, such as you present from your testing. We trust your information, just as others trust the "USP" logo on various supplements. We understand that you can't test all brands of some supplements, so we suggest some to you occasionally. We buy both from brick and mortar vendors and online, so we like to know what to rule out before purchase, as some returns can be difficult. Thanks for your help, and keep up the good work.

If I refrigerate olive oil, it comes out solid. You may want to take a second look at Bone Health Restore which now has K2 elite whatever that means. I wrote them and their testing shows K2 at 200 which is why rejected(less than 200) from Life extensions. Maybe elite form of K2 helps. Claude here

I always check with ConsumerLab first.
September 6, 2024

I buy a lot of supplements and always check with consumer lab. Their information is eye opening about the amount of poisons and bad ingredients a lot of supplements contain, including those which don't contain anything that they claim on the label. Supplements and vitamins are expensive and I don't have the money to waste on useless and possibly harmful products. Thank you Consumer Lab

The information that consumerlab publishes has been very helpful and educational in helping me making choices in using nutritional supplements. I have been paying for this service for many years. People come to me for nutritional advice and consumerlab is a key source of information I use to help other people address health issues. In my research, I have seen this service quoted many times by other practitioners. It is well respected all over the world.

Great resource!
September 5, 2024

I have a number of diagnoses, some the standard variety, eg, CVD, post STEMI, osteoporosis. Others are less so and don't always have standard recommended treatments, eg, autoimmune scalp disease (LPP), restless leg syndrome (mine is "atypical," so the usual tx don't work well for me), dry eye, dry and wet AMD. All of these have OTC supplements and tx that can and/or should be used to help the condition. So, ConsumerLabs has been extremely helpful to me in selecting products that may help and then, of those, products that are best, or at least better, in their class. Thank you very much!

Supplement purchasing caveat
August 29, 2024

I refer other Facebook visitors to go to ConsumerLab.com almost daily. Specifically, when I'm scrolling down my feed and encounter ads for supplements, medicine and such, I always leave this comment:
"😔 Any test, comparison and evaluation of dietary supplements, is irrelevant marketing, to promote this advertiser's own particular product choice. I'm not saying any of the advertised products are good or bad. But if it hasn't been evaluated by consumerlab.com (https://www.consumerlab.com/), this ad doesn't count. 🧐"

Good source of health information
August 28, 2024

I originally went to Consumer Lab for supplements actual content vs. stated content and contaminates. Now I look at safe upper limits, what the supplements do or not do, and side effects. Rating other products related to health, like sunscreen, water filters, and PFAS in dental floss are good to know.

The information on this site is invaluable. I check it for information on every supplement, body care product and some food items (like olive oils) before I purchase. Save buying tainted products, products that have mis-information on their labels, toxic metals, etc. Their TOP PICKS are best info ever.

I refer to ConsumerLab for any and every question I have for nutrition, nutrition supplements, and wellness products! Authoritative, thorough, referenced, and extremely well organized information. In addition to all this valuable information, we then get a product listing tested for strength, purity, dose, cost, etc. to aid us in choosing the appropriate product (and choosing wisely). [The only products I 'ever' choose are those that pass the ConsumerLab testing! [And a final bonus: ConsumerLab will always inform its readers of important updates on everything they report on; so staying up-to-date on the most current information available is made easy.]

GREAT reviews of any supplements you want to take with what they are supposed to do for you…
Which ones actually have the correct amount of what they claim to have…
Which ones cost the least for the best product…
A priceless service.I highly recommend signing on to their service.I believe it may be the best $75 / yr you will spend if you take supplements regularly!
