I find it pretty wild that a company called "Consumer Lab" is fairly in the dark ages when it comes to well the lab side of things.
They still won't test pine bark because they can't figure out how to verify its pine bark and not peanut skin extracts. What is Pycnogenol and does it work? - ConsumerLab.com

I agree. I also find it ridiculous that a company called Transparent Labs won't share lab reports. They should be called Opaque Non-Labs. I find it wild that Amazon told us to stop trying to share failing lab test results with them for competitors' products. I find it wild that none of the industry associations want to call out the bad actors in the industry, for fear it will make the industry as a whole look bad. I find it wild that multiple brands paid a lot of money to get Chromadex to make ganoderic acid and erinacine standards, and then once they got them, went silent on the whole thing. I know why they did it... because they found out what we have known for a while: their products don't contain any. Still, lots of wild things happening in this industry, because most people in it are shitbags just trying to profit as much as they can.
