ConsumerLab.com Opiniões 

I have been a member since 2012 and will continue. I NEVER purchase a brand before first checking it out on ConsumerLab. Appreciate you so much!

Consumer Lab is our "go-to" site for information and decisions regarding supplements and food purchases with highly-respected and science/research-based information.

Well worth the price to get unbiased reviews

A detailed review of over the counter health vitamins and supplements is appreciated greatly, It is based on actual testing and provides the subscriber what not to purchase.
Consumer Lab tests and approves or disapproves the huge number of companies that are manufacturing the same health product.

As a retired nurse, I'm always looking for the best and healthiest products to buy. It may be supplements, protein powders, chocolate, etc. I appreciate the thoroughness of testing and reporting. The only negative is that frequently the product I'm interested in was not included or evaluated in the testing process (ex. Tera's Whey Protein powders.) I certainly realize there have to be limitations to the number of products tested. Although, many of the products tested don't seem to be carried in the more popular stores or have to be purchased though a website that most people won't bother with. I would also appreciate when a product is reviewed that you would put the name of the store where it can be purchased. I appreciate the Costco reviews of fish oil and other products that I do purchase (ie. Ubiquinol, B Complex, Adult Multi, etc.) I recently purchased Swanson's Boswellia for joint pains that you reviewed. Thank you for your hard work.

The website has a ton of information on so many products, with a lot of updates, and is easy to navigate.

I have been subscribing to ConsumerLab for years. Before that I spent many hours researching supplements on my own. This site does that research and includes much more information than I could look up myself . I like that they update products. I like that each supplement has extensive research related to health condition it has been used to address. It might be seen as a bit pricey but compared to the price of supplements it is a good use of funds and a bargain. I have discontinued supplements that research indicates are not effective for why we were using them, and added others that are. I like to know my supplements are not contaminated and contain what they say they contain. I like to know I am buying the least expensive but good quality supplement. I also use it to choose olive oils, canned fish,grains, cocoa, chocolate and many other food type items they test. It’s a great resource.

Great reviews. IN-DEPTH information about every topic, Valuable research and testing of products we all use. Identification of problem ingredients, failure to contain what is listed.

A great aid that helps me cut through all the misinformation about supplements.

I've been a member of Consumerlab.com for sometime. Happy to pay a membership and I believe their researches and reports are not biased.
I use this source when I'm interested in new supplements. They provide a thorough data and by testing different brands, it shows me which brands I can rely on. Really good source when someone is looking for supplements.

I am so impressed with ConsumerLab's comprehensive product reviews. As one example, their review of Vitamin D covers everything I thought I knew about the vitamin and much more in far greater detail. It includes what it is, what it does (lists every possible benefit or non-benefit, supported by studies), how to take it, how much to take, what combinations it comes in, etc. according to sex, age group, and health condition. Perhaps best of all are their top picks of supplements chosen according to quality (including na for heavy metals), reasonable dosage, favorable price, and convenience to use. Their website is also easy to use. You can choose from an alphabetical listing under the product review or brand categories, or do a search to find all reviews and articles associated with your search. Finally, the membership fee is very reasonable. The money I'll save over a year in just one supplement I've chosen from their top picks will pay for the yearly dues many times over. Thank you ConsumerLab for protecting consumers and keeping consumer industries on their toes!

Over the past 2 years, ConsumerLab.com has become an indispensable part of my supplement purchasing routine. Their comprehensive reviews and rigorous testing have consistently guided me toward high-quality products and away from potential pitfalls. The value of their membership is evident in the detailed, trustworthy information they provide. If you’re serious about making informed choices and getting the most from your supplements, ConsumerLab.com is definitely worth the investment.

billed for a service i havent used...and probably didnt sign up for. now, late fees on a credit card. yikes

Many of the published sources on which the reviews are based are dated. In addition, the scientists at Consumer Lab don't assess the quality of their research sources, weighing methodologically unsound studies equally with well-designed and analyzed studies. Often the conclusions based on their review equivocate because the scientists reviewing the literature seem unable to resolve contradictory findings, which is, of course, inevitable given the way scientific research is conducted. As a result of their lack of up-to-date-findings, their inability to assess why different studies come to different conclusions, or their lack of emphasis on quality research and analysis over weak studies, their conclusions are not useful and simply add confusion to the public's understanding of health and nutrition.

Have subscribed since mid 2018... so six years experience. They are always excellent! Lots of well explained info; helpful charts; and an introduction to the benefits and otherwise of virtually all OTC supplements. It's possible to make suggestions to them if there's a particular brand of a supplement they don't cover.

I rely on the research done by Consumer Lab, because they provide detailed information with cited sources.

I always check the information and ratings for any supplements I am interested in. I've found it invaluable. I have used Consumer Labs for many years.

Unbiased, topical information. I rely on it and check before I make any supplement purchases.
Highly recommended.

I subscribe because you are my reference for "all things" to do with supplements, otc products, "concoctions," etc. Your summaries are in-depth and include extensive information about research, testing, price and recommendations(top picks). Thank you for all you do to inform us of the good, the bad and the ugly products.

I find the coverage authoritative. The reports have many references to research studies with links to them. I can tell that ConsumerLab has carefully read the studies and given serious analysis of them. Unfortunately many other publications (New York Times, Consumer Reports, Harvard Health Newsletters) are very light on authoritativeness regarding health and nutrition – They are written by lay people who have good writing skills but do not have the scientific background to cover the topics with substance.

I do not take many supplements. I am more interested in CL coverage of foods; for example, olive oil, chocolate, natto, tea. I am also interested in CL coverage of health requirements, for example, how much vitamin B12 can be absorbed by the body in a meal, the optimum level of vitamin D in the blood.

I also appreciate that CL doesn’t make money on linking to websites of the products it reviews.

My one concern is whether the sample size that CL uses for testing is large enough.

In general, it is my number 1 source for food-related information.
