SuppHelper scoring

How scoring works

Product scores summarize how strong a supplement looks across formulation quality, value, transparency, trust signals, and goal fit. They are designed to help with comparison, not to replace medical advice.

Important: Scores are informational. They do not guarantee outcomes, safety, or suitability for your specific health needs.

Overall product score

The main product score is a 0-100 summary of the strongest signals available for that supplement. It is informed by the product's nutrient profile, label clarity, overall value, brand trust, customer reception, and how well the formula aligns with the intended use case.

The overall score is not a simple average of every subsection. Some factors can matter more than others depending on the category and the available product data.

Score breakdown subsections

Nutrient quality

Looks at the quality, relevance, and potency of the active nutrients or compounds in the formula.

Ingredient transparency

Rewards products that clearly disclose ingredient amounts, forms, and formula details.

Value for money

Compares what you get from the formula relative to the product's cost.

Customer satisfaction

Uses review quality and volume as a trust signal, while recognizing that reviews are only one part of the picture.

Brand

Reflects brand reputation and consistency signals when those are available.

Goal and ingredient scores

Goal scores estimate how well a formula supports a specific outcome such as sleep, energy, or immunity. Ingredient scores highlight how meaningful each nutrient or botanical is within the product itself.

A product can score strongly for one goal and only moderately for another. That is normal because formulas are rarely optimized equally for every use case.

Why some subsections may be missing

Not every product has the same amount of public data. Some brands provide better label detail, some products have limited review history, and some categories have fewer useful comparison points. When data is missing or weak, fewer scoring subsections may be shown.
