Why Health Metric Lab Supplement Reviews Are Built on Science — Not Sponsorships
The supplement industry is worth billions and most review sites have undisclosed financial ties to the brands they rank. Our supplement reviews do not. We read primary studies, check Certificates of Analysis, and report honestly — including when the evidence is weak or insufficient.
Expertise
Written by certified nutrition researchers and reviewed by qualified healthcare professionals before every supplement review is published.
Evidence-Based
Every health claim is anchored to peer-reviewed research from PubMed, Frontiers, and indexed journals — with sources linked directly in each guide.
Authoritative
We reference third-party certifications (NSF, USP, Informed Sport) and link to primary research — never to secondary summaries or brand-supplied data.
Trustworthy
Affiliate relationships are fully disclosed. Rankings and supplement reviews are never for sale. See disclosure →
How Health Metric Lab Builds Every Supplement Review & Health Guide
Every supplement review and health guide we publish follows a consistent four-step process — so you always know the information is grounded in real science.
Literature Review
We review primary studies from PubMed, Cochrane, and peer-reviewed journals — reading full papers, not abstracts, and noting limitations honestly in every supplement review.
Ingredient Analysis
We evaluate active ingredient forms, standardisation percentages, bioavailability data, and drug interactions — then verify Certificates of Analysis against label claims.
Brand Comparison
Brands are compared on purity, third-party testing credentials, GMP manufacturing standards, and true cost per effective dose — on a level playing field, with no paid placements.
Medical Review
Before any supplement review is published, a qualified healthcare professional reviews it for clinical accuracy, safety considerations, and appropriate medical caveats.
