Analysis

Bluebonnet's Ladies' Choice is marketed as a multi-nutrient supplement for women, including PABA (30mg) and Inositol (50mg). However, its formulation is severely compromised by the inclusion of several 'proprietary blends' (Whole Food Phytonutrient Blend, Urinary Health Blend, Female Health Flower Blend, Advanced Female Health Blend, Heart Health Blend, Vitamins & Minerals) which are listed with '0.00NP' for their quantities. This complete lack of transparency, a major red flag for nutritionists and consumer advocates, means that the actual amounts of many potentially beneficial ingredients, including other key vitamins and minerals relevant to hair and skin, are unknown. Without this information, it's impossible to verify the product's effectiveness or value. The PABA dose itself is moderate, but its impact is obscured by the overall formulation. Compounded by a very high price per serving and low review count, this product presents a poor value proposition for specific hair and skin goals.

Pros
  • Contains PABA (30mg) and Inositol, which can be beneficial for certain aspects of health.
Cons
  • Major transparency issue: Numerous 'Proprietary Blends' listed with zero quantity, preventing evaluation of effective dosages for key ingredients.
  • Very high price per serving for a product with undisclosed ingredient amounts.
  • Low review count, indicating limited user experience or validation.
  • Efficacy for Skin Health and Hair Health is highly questionable without knowing actual ingredient quantities.
Warnings
  • Significant lack of transparency due to undisclosed quantities of ingredients within multiple proprietary blends (marked as 0.00NP). Consumers cannot verify the potency or effectiveness of the product's claims, especially for complex goals like skin and hair health.

Categories
PABA 50.0
The 30mg PABA content is moderate, contributing to the collection. However, its effectiveness in a blend where other key 'Vitamins & Minerals' quantities are undisclosed, makes its overall utility for specific PABA benefits less clear compared to single-ingredient PABA products.
Goals
Skin Health 30.0
The undisclosed quantities of 'Vitamins & Minerals' and other blends make it impossible to ascertain effective skin-supporting nutrient levels. While PABA is present, its overall impact is diluted by the opaque formulation, rendering its benefits for skin health uncertain.
Hair Health 30.0
Without knowing the dosages of critical hair-supporting vitamins (like Biotin) or minerals within the 'Vitamins & Minerals' blend, it's impossible to confirm this product's efficacy for hair health. The PABA dose is moderate, but insufficient to carry the entire goal.
