The jar provides a declared 450 mg of St. John's wort extract per daily serving, but it does not specify standardization, so its practical potency is uncertain. The multi-ingredient formula also warrants care around medication interactions.
Scoring criteria
Quantity
75 / 100The daily serving contains 450 mg of St. John's wort extract, but without standardization its adequacy for the intended role remains uncertain.
Form
75 / 100This is a conventional St. John's wort extract with no established special absorption or tolerability advantage identified from the label.
Convenience
85 / 100The label directs two capsules once daily with food, for 90 capsules total.
Label accuracy
100 / 100The declared ingredient amounts and directions are internally consistent, with no evident misleading or contradictory claim.
Matches the studied extract
75 / 100The St. John's wort extract amount is declared, but plant part and standardization are not specified, limiting comparison with research-matched preparations.
Purity
75 / 100The label lists ordinary excipients and claims a GMP facility, but provides no independently identified quality certification or product-specific testing evidence.
Cofactors
50 / 100The separately declared 250 mg of GABA has a complementary calming role, though added benefit in this formula is uncertain.
