Labdoor Bacopa Rankings

What they were answering

edefakiel · 2 points

Hi, sorry to bother. I buy everything I can from you, but you don't sell basic items of my stack... Maca, Spirulina, Jujuba... Some recommendations about where to get those things? I'm worried after seeing the results from the Swanson products in this page. Is Vitacost trust worthy? I have seen them bragging about good results in Labdoor in some of their products. Do you know anything about Sevenhills Wholefoods? They are one of the most famous sellers in Amazon, I take their Maca. None of them have ever responded to my inquiry of a CoA, which is easy to fake anyway.

Also, if it is that easy to know when is Labdoor who is buying your product, can some company send them a higher quality batch just do well at their testing?

Thank you for your time, really hate to bother you, I'm sure that you have one thousand important things to do.

Most places are shit. I do not trust Swanson. I've used Vitacost before, but I would not say I really trust them. Never heard of Sevenhills Wholefoods. A lot of smaller brands pop up, sell for a bit, then disappear. Sevenhills does not seem big. They have almost no site traffic, less than 1,000 likes on Facebook, and no real history that I can see. If they are big, it's not here in the US.

Also, if it is that easy to know when is Labdoor who is buying your product, can some company send them a higher quality batch just do well at their testing?

They would have to have the good batch ready, and catch the order before going out. That's very unlikely, and why not just sell the good batch instead? If you just have a good batch sitting there ready to go in case LabDoor tests your stuff, you can certainly just sell the tested batches to customers. The real problem is vendors not testing, not a willful attempt to sell people bad product. Also, this was on Amazon, and fulfilled by Amazon. So there would be no way to stop Amazon from shipping the product they had on the shelf, and to ship a different one. I don't know how they purchased the stuff from the other people, but I assume a lot was through Amazon.

Since there is a lot of concern over the heavy metal content in different Bacopa brands, I thought that I would write Himalaya and ask for the COA for their Brahmi (Bacopa) product. I sent them an email asking for it, an

Replying to throw_my_username · Thanks again for the replies. I live in Ireland. Edit: [Here](https://customizedblends.com/images/coa/5a39106697c5ea.jpg) is the COA of the 50% bacosides by HPLC. I'd be willing

Yeah, that's SGS in India. This is one of the labs we were fighting with on their numbers. They kept getting over 50% and we kept getting 24%. They sent us huge packets with testing data, and their methods and documentat

Bacopa Monnieri: The Most Impressive Natural Nootropic?

Replying to AdAstraPer5-HT2Ar · Exercise boosts the fuck out of me much more than caffeine or nicotine so there's that. I don't think that there is anything else in my stack that would counter it. Bacopa's pharma

I think the most likely explanation is the simple one. Bacopa up-regulates tryptophan hydroxylase, which increases 5-HTP production, which competes with L-DOPA for the aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase enzyme, which lo
