Scam SUMMARY: It is our opinion that Metabolyte is a scam. Metabolyte is either sodium or potassium bound with dodecanedioic acid. The inventors seem to describe it as "a source of energy through the oxidation of fatty acids" but the brands using it say it…

Partial Scam SUMMARY: It is our opinion that this probably should be a scam, but we have a lower bar for ingredients you can feel, since you can try them yourself and be the judge. Zynamite is the trademark name for a mangifera indica (mango…

Scam SUMMARY: It is our opinion that Creatine HCl 189 PEG, currently used by GNC, is a scam. Its study is egregiously incorrectly designed. Furthermore, we believe the study actually shows that Creatine HCl 189 PEG is worse than normal Creatine. Creatine HCl 189 PEG…

Partial Scam SUMMARY: It is our opinion that BioPerine is a partial scam. BioPerine is a black pepper extract high in piperine. It is used to primarily improve the absorption of other ingredients. The issue is that there is only human clinical evidence on seven…

Not A Scam SUMMARY: It is our opinion that BC30 is not a scam. They have 25 published papers, most of which are correctly designed. The only caveat is that the protein research is pretty bad, but as a probiotic, BC30 actually seems very robust…

Partial Scam SUMMARY: It is our opinion that this probably should be a scam, but we have a lower bar for ingredients you can feel. If you believe the heavily conflicted research, 6 grams of 3D pump is equivalent to 8 grams of Citrulline. Why…
