Before you buy
Start with suitability, then compare the evidence. These checks are questions to investigate, not promises that every product in this ranking meets them.
- Check active ingredient amounts, allergens and interactions with a qualified clinician where relevant; ethical scores do not establish medical effectiveness.
- Distinguish product testing from brand certification and ask for batch-specific testing when purity is an important requirement.
- For vegan preferences, check capsules and excipients as well as the headline active ingredient.
What the ranking does—and does not—tell you
The ethics score is a comparison of the information recorded in our catalogue, not a customer star rating, safety test or complete lifecycle assessment. Check the individual product's sources, certificate scope and current retailer details before deciding.
