Ingredient Science
Ingredient Lookup: Every Ingredient We’ve Researched, Indexed
A real, sourced index of every ingredient we've researched in depth, alphabetized, with a one-line finding and a link to the full research and the product it appears in.

Every ingredient below has its own dedicated research page on this site, a real citation trail, not a rehash of marketing copy. This index exists so you can look up one specific ingredient directly, without reading a full product review first. Sorted alphabetically. If an ingredient you’re looking for isn’t listed, we haven’t published dedicated research on it yet.
How to use this
- Click the ingredient name to read the full research page: the actual studies, dose ranges, and any real caveats.
- The “real finding” column is a one-line summary, not the whole picture. The linked page always has more detail, including citations.
- The “where it appears” column links to the specific product review where this ingredient is actually used, so you can see it in context.
- Also see our Supplement Science Glossary for general terms (like “proprietary blend” or “bioavailability”) rather than specific ingredients.
The full ingredient index
| Ingredient | Real finding | Where it appears |
|---|---|---|
| Ashwagandha | Real RCT evidence for stress/cortisol support, plus two safety considerations (thyroid function, sedative interactions) worth checking before buying any ashwagandha product. | Nagano Lean Body Tonic → |
| Camu Camu & Acerola (Vitamin C) | The honest, mixed research on whether “natural” vitamin C sources actually absorb better than plain ascorbic acid. | Nagano Lean Body Tonic → |
| Chlorogenic Acid (Green Coffee Bean) | Real meta-analysis evidence for weight loss, with a modest effect size well below what most marketing implies. | Java Burn 2.0 → |
| Chromium Picolinate | A real meta-analysis effect that’s largely driven by a single trial, plus a genuine safety note for anyone on diabetes medication. | Java Burn 2.0 → |
| Delphinol (Maqui Berry Extract) | Real published trial data in prediabetic adults, a measured HbA1c change, not just a lab-bench finding. | GlucoBerry → |
| EGCG (Green Tea Extract) | Real human-research dose and effect size, plus a safety ceiling most marketing pages leave out. | Nagano Lean Body Tonic → |
| Gymnema Sylvestre | Real, meta-analysis-level evidence for glucose and insulin regulation, not the “nerve support” framing some brain/hearing supplements market it under. | ZenCortex → |
| Huperzine A | A genuine, potent acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, the same enzyme class some prescription Alzheimer’s medications target, and why it deserves real interaction caution. | CogniCare Pro → |
| L-Arabinose (“Sukre”) | Real, published, mechanism-specific evidence, but the effect only applies to sucrose-containing meals. | Gluco6 → |
| L-Carnitine | The strongest individual evidence rating on this site: a real 37-trial meta-analysis, with what that effect size actually means in practice. | Java Burn 2.0 → |
| L-Theanine + Caffeine | Real RCT evidence for the studied combination specifically, not either ingredient tested alone. | Java Burn 2.0 → |
| Moringa Oleifera | Real 2025 clinical research, including a rigorous meta-analysis finding the evidence more inconsistent than most marketing suggests. | Moringa Magic → |
| Panax Ginseng | Real systematic-review evidence for fatigue, plus a species mix-up (Panax vs. Siberian ginseng) that trips up a lot of supplement labels. | Nagano Lean Body Tonic → |
| Quercetin, Curcumin & Resveratrol | The real clinical trial behind this combination was for a specific eye condition, not the general immune support it’s marketed for. | TonicGreens → |
| Reishi, Shiitake & Maitake (Beta-Glucans) | A real 2023 randomized controlled trial in healthy adults on beta-glucan content and immune-cell activation. | TonicGreens → |
| Tea Tree Oil | Real randomized-trial evidence (an 18% cure rate at full concentration over 6 months), and why a 2022 systematic review still calls it insufficient. | Kerassentials → |
| Undecylenic Acid | One of the few topical antifungal actives with real FDA OTC-monograph recognition, and why disclosed concentration matters more than the ingredient name. | Kerassentials → |
This index covers ingredients we’ve researched in enough depth to publish a dedicated page. It will grow as we add more ingredient-science research; it is not currently a complete index of every ingredient mentioned anywhere on the site.
