Piping Rock Lutein & Zeaxanthin Supplement | 21mg | 60 Gummies | Orange Flavor | Vegan, Non GMO, Gluten Free

Piping Rock Lutein & Zeaxanthin Supplements Taste Good.Orange Flavor. They are easy to chew and Taste Good.I Would Recommend.

The manufacturer is clearly trying to fool consumers regarding the quantitative content of active ingredients. The front label says in large font: 21 mg. And then in tiny unreadable font: per serving. Unless you really investigate, you would think that 21 mg is the content per gummy. It is not. It is per 2 gummies. Clearly, this is intended to mislead consumers and is simply dishonest. This makes me wonder what other facts are misrepresented, distorted, twisted, or hidden. Obviously, the manufacturer cannot and should not be trusted. Next time I will buy a similar product from an honest producer, not from this one.

These "Piping Rock Lutein & Zeaxanthin Supplements | 21mg | 60 Gummies | Advanced Orange Flavor | Vegan, Non GMO, Gluten Free" are bursting with orange flavor. They are easy to chew and break down quickly. They don't cause me any stomach upset and taste great!

The taste is the worst never had.

Supplements in the U.S. are largely an unregulated industry. The FDA doesn’t test for safety, efficacy, or regulate this market at all. You do not even know whether the supplements contain what they say they contain in the amounts that they claim. In fact, you hear about class action lawsuits against supplement manufacturers all the time because of this. It also doesn’t help that there are actual counterfeits being sold, especially on Amazon, too – I was a victim of this, by the way. So, my rating scheme of supplements are largely based on the following:1) A star for supplements that are verified made in a certified GMP facility in the U.S.2) A star for supplements from well established brands with well known presence on the Internet, i.e. a well built website with large Google search results from established companies.3) A star for being independently lab tested with verified lab results as posted by the manufacturer.4) Full 5 stars for supplements being tested and or certified by USP, NSF, Informed Choice (or Sport), or ConsumerLabs for having good purity, and potency to the stated manufacturer labels. Or, if the supplement is also sold via CVS, which require all supplement manufacturers to be verified third party lab tested via USP, NSF, UL, or other verification and standards bodies.Negative stars for products in some extreme condition may be doled out: damaged products (broken seal, or broken capsules), expired products, products that are rancid (fish oil, etc…), and products that have been shown to not meet quality controls and standards as mentioned in 3). Also, if there are previous FDA warnings issued against the company and products, or pending civil lawsuits for poor products will result in 1 star ratings.My opinion on how it tastes, if I feel like it works, or what the scientific literature says about the supplement ingredients are irrelevant to the star ratings. It’s really up to your own discretion and research to figure out whether this supplement is worth using based on said research or my own opinions on it. With that said, here’s the rating and review for this supplement.Other than negative stars, I cannot delve into why this is a 4 star rating, as Amazon Vine keeps flagging my supplement reviews for inane reasons. And, I'm just going to give up on providing any meaningful review on supplements because of this. You will just need to look at what I posted above, look at my star rating, and figure it out yourself. As always, do your own Due Diligence when shopping for any product, but especially health and sports supplements.
