ConsumerLab.comReviews of consumerlab.com

Truly comprehensive articles about myriad health/wellness vitamins, supplements, and a good assortment of food products (eg chocolates, oatmeal). Other reviews describe the service very well.(the product analysis, ratings based on multiple metrics, and a lengthy analysis of the purported use/value of various vitamins/supplements. It reads much like a literature review in a peer-reviewed journal. My only complaint is that the subscription is rather expensive, but I know their lab work has depth and expertise. Since I don't want to be tethered to the website to remember their ratings/assessments of specific products, I find it convenient to download the article. There was a time when they completely blocked people from trying to copy a paragraph or download the article. (If that persisted I would've given 3.5 stars. I really don't like using a computer.) Happily, they have reasonably asked the subscriber to download only for personal use. Date of experience: my approx last date of using the website, but it's probably 1-2x per month for many years.

I live in Australia but I have subscribed to consumerlab for years. Their reviews are excellent. I always go to them first to check on supplements and health reports. I use the site at least once a week. Detailed, trustworthy, regularly updated. Before I purchase any supplement I check here first.

I like that they test products and keep us updated on new information on the products. I only buy what they have tested.

I utilize ConsumerLab every week and trust them fully. I appreciate how many products they research and all the consumer education they provide. I recommend them to everyone. I believe ConsumerLab has saved me a lot of money over time by not wasting my money on products that are worthless. Thank you ConsumerLab!

Very good way to learn more about different kinds of supplements and how they can improve your life.

ConsumerLab does some of the best testing of supplements and some foods. They also do a great job of summarising the peer-reviewed science for each supplement. I just wish they could cover more!

I asked about a product and was told you would be doing tests on it next month.

I've subscribed to CL for years--and given gift subscriptions to family & friends who are concerned about supplement quality. There's no one else doing this important work of vetting commercial brands and verifying that their claims are actually valid. Between their rigorous product testing and comprehensive analysis of the clinical studies/medical literature, there's not a better source of information. I also like that they compile and incorporate the work of other companies such as Lead Safe Mama to provide a more complete picture when possible. One example of how they operate is their current article on fish oils. it's a deep dive into education on EPA, DHA, etc. They not only talk about the types and subtypes but compare a number of brands to the 2 prescription oils currently available. (An important medical journal article came out this spring.)
