Any opinion on Nutricost?
Not a good one, but I have not tested any of their stuff recently.
I noticed ND doesn't carry TUDCA. Have you thought about it?
Yes, that is on our list. I think the issue was price. I will have to confirm with my team, but we could not make the price work with our costs.
Doublewood and Genius supplements are new ones that seem to be taking over Amazon with great ratings. I do question their quality. I can see how they get such good reviews. Doublewood uses Facebook chatbots to let you try discounted or free supplements, which usually leads to good reviews. I actually just got invited to a Genius supplement Facebook group for "insiders" so they can get and try new Genius supplements and give reviews. I haven't gotten any yet since this was just in the last week or so.
Yes, those are all paid for reviews. That's how they do it. They are not real. They give free product for reviews, which is against Amazon's TOS, but they don't care. As long as Amazon is making money, they turn a blind eye to shit. I've also tested their stuff, and it has failed our testing. They both just use contract manufactures that don't properly test. Neither of those brands have production facilities or testing labs. They are just middle men that contract out all the work, then spend their time on marketing and paying for reviews to be at the top of Amazon's rankings. Pick any of the top Amazon brands. They are all garbage not properly testing. ALL of them.
Do you really want to buy from brands that have to give away tens of thousands, sometimes hundreds of thousands, of units of product to get a bunch of good reviews? Do you really want to buy from brands that have no production or testing facilities of their own, and just contract to the lowest bidding contract manufacturer? This is why we want to get people caring about quality! You are putting all this shit into your body! Does 5,000 Amazon reviews matter when they are not properly testing? Does getting free product to give reviews actually override the fact that you have no idea if it is real, pure, or meets label claims? It's a bastardization of the system, and consumers lose out in the end. Reviews are meaningless these days because of programs like this. It's all fake and paid for. Even the "independent" blogs and review sites out there are getting paid to show positive things for the brands that pay them. It's all manipulated to trick consumers into buying.
