66 out of 100

Energy Xtra targets stress-related fatigue and mental performance, with limited evidence that depends on the herbal preparations used.

AI assessment of the formula, label and price. How scoring works

Nutrient Quality76

Rhodiola and eleuthero have clearly identified botanical sources, which helps distinguish their preparations. Quality is less certain for ashwagandha and ginseng, so confidence varies across the blend.

Ingredient Transparency80

All herbal amounts and forms are stated, making the main contents easy to compare. The proportions within the listed rhodiola sources are not given.

Value For Money43

Value is mixed: eleuthero compares favorably on serving cost, while the rhodiola amount is costly. Uncertain value for the other herbs prevents a firm judgment of the whole blend.

Customer Satisfaction71

The small set of customer ratings is very positive. With so few reviews, that gives only an early picture of satisfaction.

Product Focus55

Rhodiola and ashwagandha offer limited, preparation-specific support for fatigue or mental performance during stress. Their amounts provide only partial support compared with reviewed doses, while eleuthero adds little evidence.

Ashwagandha · 200 mg

Rhodiola and ashwagandha may relate to mental work, memory and attention in stressful settings, but the supplied findings are preparation specific. At 100 mg and 200 mg respectively, their amounts give limited support compared with the reviewed exposures; eleuthero adds only a small, weakly supported contribution.

Rhodiola and ashwagandha give the saved findings a stress-fatigue emphasis. Rhodiola's evidence is limited to particular extracts and settings, while ashwagandha stress findings do not consistently demonstrate a fatigue benefit. Their 100 mg and 200 mg amounts provide partial support in the saved comparison; eleuthero adds no assessed contribution.

Report overview
A+ Composition And Label DisclosureA+ Composition And Label DisclosureB+ Commercial Price And Usability
Eleuthero root extract is listed at 125 mg per serving with 0.8% eleutherosides, giving clear composition details. Those details make the preparation easier to compare, with a whole-product price of about $0.46 per serving.
How this ingredient is rated

Composition and Label Disclosure100

The plant part and eleutheroside percentage are both identified, making the composition more specific than an amount alone.
Eleutheroside Marker Disclosure
A 0.8% eleutheroside content is declared for the eleuthero material; it is a label detail, not an independently verified measurement.
Target Plant-Part Identification
The root is explicitly identified as the source of the extract.

Composition and Label Disclosure100

Eleuthero has an individual declared amount, so its quantity does not depend on guessing a share of a blend.
Eleuthero Amount Disclosure
The declared eleuthero amount is 125 mg per serving; this is distinct from any raw equivalent or eleutheroside yield.

Commercial Price and Usability80

The whole-product serving price is relatively low, giving a favorable price comparison without establishing ingredient quality.
Selected-Serving Price Comparison
The whole-product price is about $0.46 per serving, not a separate eleuthero price or a measure of an effective amount.
