AI assessment of the formula, label and price. How scoring works
Nutrient Quality42
Eleuthero is clearly identified as a root extract, giving useful detail about that plant ingredient. The quality of most other ingredients remains uncertain despite their named forms or compounds.
Ingredient Transparency76
Amounts and most ingredient forms are listed. The cocoa component does not disclose the proportions of its named compounds, leaving that part of the formula unclear.
Value For Money42
