About SupplementLab.org

We Read the Fine Print So You Don't Have To

An independent supplement review publication. We build our scores from aggregated data — not a lab, not a brand mouthpiece.

Why we exist

The supplement aisle — online or off — runs on ad budgets, not evidence. A product with a bigger ad spend often beats a better one on "best of" lists. SupplementLab.org exists to break that link between spend and score.

We started as a small team of researchers and copy editors. We were tired of writing supplement content we couldn't stand behind. Now every ranking traces back to a real source. That means a lab report, a verified customer review, a checked label, or a price tracked over time. If we can't source a claim, it stays out of the review.

How we score — the meta-review method

We are a review and analysis publication, not a lab. Our editors don't run their own tests. Instead, our team builds each score from four layers of evidence. We check each layer against the others before we publish a number:

1Third-party test dataPublished lab assays, certificates of analysis, and regulatory filings for purity and label accuracy.
2Verified customer reviewsRetailer and platform review data. We weight toward verified purchases and read every review in full, not just star averages.
3Formula & spec auditIngredient form and dose per serving, checked line by line against the label and known effective doses.
4Price per effective doseCost per real, effective dose — not the marketing dose printed on the front of the bottle.

Our editors weigh these four inputs and combine them into one 100-point score per product. Where the evidence is thin or mixed, we say so in the review. We don't round up.

Where we're honest about the limits: we don't run our own lab. We don't re-test every batch ourselves. Our scores reflect the best evidence we have when we publish, and we date every article. When a formula changes or new data comes in, we update the review. We don't leave a stale score up.

The reader pledge

Every review we publish follows the same four rules, without exception:

  • ✓No brand pays for a ranking position, a score, or a "top pick" placement. Ever.
  • ✓Affiliate deals never change a score. A product earns its rank first. We check for an affiliate program after.
  • ✓Every review lists cons. If a product has no real flaws, we say so. We never skip the section.
  • ✓We date every score. We revise it when new evidence changes the picture. We don't leave old rankings live.
