What our scores automatically penalise
ALA-only "omega-3"
Flaxseed and chia products sold as omega-3. ALA converts to EPA at only 5–10% efficiency and to DHA at <1%. Not interchangeable with fish oil for cardiovascular or cognitive endpoints. Every such product is penalised on label honesty.
Generic vs. patented extracts
KSM-66 and Sensoril have extract-specific RCT data. Generic ashwagandha powder, regardless of withanolide % claimed, has no extract-specific trial base. The evidence attaches to the specific extract, not the plant. Same logic: Creapure vs. generic creatine, BCM-95 vs. plain curcumin.
Cyanocobalamin B12
Cyanocobalamin requires hepatic conversion to the active methylcobalamin form. For India's ~47% B12-deficient urban adults (NFHS-5), particularly vegetarians, the active form matters. Products using cyanocobalamin are rated down on ingredient form.
Vitamin D2 instead of D3
Ergocalciferol raises serum 25(OH)D roughly half as effectively as cholecalciferol, with a shorter half-life. ICMR and NICE both recommend D3. Any product using D2 at any dose is rated down on ingredient form — no exceptions.
Proprietary blends
When multiple actives hide behind a single combined weight, underdosing is undetectable. We cannot score dose accuracy for any ingredient inside a proprietary blend. No product with a meaningful prop blend scores above 6.5 on dose accuracy.
"1000mg fish oil" is not 1000mg omega-3
A standard 1000mg capsule contains approximately 180mg EPA + 120mg DHA = 300mg combined omega-3. The cardiovascular benefit threshold is 1g EPA+DHA daily — requiring 3–4 such capsules. Products that don't disclose EPA+DHA separately are penalised on label honesty.
