Score breakdown
Tap a module to see what it measures. A 0 can reflect missing disclosure, not just a negative result.
Dosage quality
5.7/10
Acceptable dosing, but not standout
Checks whether labeled ingredient amounts fall within clinically studied ranges (not just regulatory minimums). Low/0 can reflect under-dosing or missing amounts (e.g., proprietary blends).
The formula stays relatively clean on excipients. The main limitation is that formula coherence is weak: diluted, decorative or overly complex.
Strengths

Label transparency is better than average
The safety profile looks solid
Weaknesses

Vitamin-e: below clinically studied range
Phytosterols: below clinically studied range
Final verdict
A middling option. It may be usable, but weaker formulation coherence makes better alternatives worth comparing.
Ingredient Analysis & Evidence

✔ Clinically effective dose with strong supporting evidence
Dose is within the optimal/effective range. Adequate, but not a key strength: Dose is directionally useful, but not a standout strength. The declared form is acceptable, but not among the best-absorbed options.
Scientific evidence
Meta-analysis
Mortensen et al. Q-SYMBIO trial CoQ10 and heart failure outcomes
✔ Clinically effective dose with moderate supporting evidence
Dose is within the optimal/effective range. Solid but not a standout: Dose is directionally useful, but not a standout strength. The declared form is acceptable, but not among the best-absorbed options.
Scientific evidence
RCT
Nakano et al. RCT PQQ and cognitive function in older adults
Dose is below the minimum effective threshold. One of the weaker points: Dose is likely below clinically useful levels. The declared form is acceptable, but not among the best-absorbed options.
Clinical dosing guidance
Based on established dosing ranges used in clinical practice.
Min effective: 5 mgOptimal: 10 mgUpper: 20 mgGrade: B
⚠ Strong evidence exists, but dose is below effective threshold
Dose is below the minimum effective threshold. One of the weaker points: Dose is likely below clinically useful levels.
Scientific evidence
Meta-analysis
Katan et al. meta-analysis plant sterols and LDL cholesterol
⚠ Moderate evidence exists, but dose may be too low to be effective
One of the weaker points: Dose is likely below clinically useful levels. The label does not specify the form, so absorption quality cannot be verified.
Scientific evidence
Meta-analysis
Eidelman et al. meta-analysis vitamin E and cardiovascular endpoints
