leaderboard Score 65.0
A gentle, liquid herbal blend formulated for infants to relieve gas and colic, with very low dosages appropriate for babies but not effective for adult health goals.
This Gripe Water is formulated for infants, providing very low doses of herbal extracts (Ginger 2.50mg, Fennel 4.00mg, Chamomile 4.00mg, Lemon Balm 4.00mg). These herbs are traditionally recognized for their carminative and soothing properties, which can help alleviate gas and discomfort in babies. The liquid form is easy to administer to infants. Reviews for gripe water products often highlight their effectiveness for calming fussy babies with digestive issues. However, the minuscule dosages make it entirely unsuitable and ineffective for adult-oriented health goals like immunity, mood, testosterone, anti-inflammatory, or metabolism boost. Its score reflects its specific utility for infants, not its broad health applicability.
- Specifically designed for infants, prioritizing safety and gentleness.
- Contains traditional herbs known for soothing infant digestive discomfort.
- Liquid form is easy to administer to babies.
- Extremely low dosages, completely ineffective for adult-specific health goals.
- Not applicable for broad wellness benefits like immunity, mood, or metabolism.
- Limited utility beyond infant digestive relief.
- Only for infant use as directed; dosages are too low for adults.
- Always consult a pediatrician before administering any supplement to an infant.

Categories
Ginger 25.0
While ginger is present, its dosage (2.50mg) is extremely low and only relevant for the very specific and mild needs of infants. It does not represent a significant source of ginger for general therapeutic benefits.
Goals
Digestive Health 75.0
This product is highly effective for its specific target: infant digestive discomfort, gas, and colic, using gentle herbal extracts. Its score reflects its excellent utility within its intended niche.
Anti-Inflammatory Support 10.0
The dosages of ginger and other herbs are far too low to provide any meaningful anti-inflammatory effects, even for infants, beyond soothing localized irritation.
Immunity 5.0
The minuscule dosages of ingredients provide no significant immune-boosting benefits for any age group, especially not for adults.
