leaderboard Score 45.0
A detoxification-focused product with Molybdenum, but its effectiveness and composition are largely obscured by a non-transparent proprietary blend.
Codeage's 'Binder + Full Spectrum' product is designed primarily for detoxification, as suggested by its name 'Binder.' It contains Molybdenum Bisglycinate and a 600mg 'Proprietary Blend.' The use of a proprietary blend without disclosing individual ingredient amounts makes it impossible for consumers or experts to fully assess the efficacy, quality, and specific dosages of the binding agents and other components, which is a significant drawback according to nutritionist recommendations for transparency. While molybdenum supports detoxification pathways, the lack of transparency for the main 'binder' component limits its appeal and ability to be fully evaluated for its detoxification claims or general health benefits. The testosterone support goal is also highly questionable for a binder product.
- Contains Molybdenum in an easily absorbable bisglycinate form, supporting specific detoxification pathways.
- The 'Binder' concept aligns with detoxification goals, aiming to remove toxins from the body by binding to them.
- The primary active ingredients are hidden within a 'Proprietary Blend,' preventing proper evaluation of dosages and individual components, which is a major transparency issue.
- The goal 'Testosterone Support' is listed, which is not a primary function of a general binder product and appears miscategorized.
- Limited information on what constitutes 'Full Spectrum' within the proprietary blend, making comprehensive evaluation difficult.
- Consumers should be cautious about products with proprietary blends, as they obscure critical information about ingredient dosages and efficacy.
- The product's stated 'Testosterone Support' goal is not supported by its ingredients or typical use cases for binder products, and should be disregarded.

Categories
Molybdenum 85.0
The product provides Molybdenum in a highly bioavailable bisglycinate form at an adequate dosage of 100mcg. This is a commendable aspect for individuals specifically seeking this trace mineral for its enzymatic support functions within the body, making it a good contributor to the Molybdenum collection.
Goals
Detoxification 55.0
While the product is conceptually designed as a binder for detoxification and molybdenum supports this process, the proprietary blend significantly limits the ability to assess the actual effectiveness and specific contribution of the primary binding agents. This lack of transparency undermines confidence in its detoxification capabilities compared to products with disclosed ingredient profiles.
General Health 30.0
This product is specialized as a binder for detoxification and is not formulated as a comprehensive general health supplement. Its ingredients are geared towards specific binding functions, and the obscurity of the proprietary blend makes it unsuitable for addressing general nutritional needs or broad health support.
Testosterone Support 0.0
There is no scientific basis or ingredient profile within a 'binder' supplement that would contribute to testosterone support. The components of this product are entirely unrelated to hormonal balance, rendering this an irrelevant and miscategorized goal.
