How to Actually Read a Supplement Label

Start with the Supplement Facts panel

The front of the bottle is marketing. The Supplement Facts panel is the truth. Read it first: it lists every active ingredient and the exact amount per serving.

Beware the proprietary blend

A "proprietary blend" groups several ingredients under one total weight, so you never learn how much of each you are getting. It is a common way to make a label look impressive while under-dosing the ingredients that matter. We publish our doses in full.
