Why this scored 48/100
Evergreen Apothecary Anxiety Tincture combines tulsi (holy basil, Ocimum sanctum), skullcap (Scutellaria lateriflora), and wood betony (Stachys officinalis / Betonica officinalis). The product is named for a specific medical diagnosis (anxiety) rather than a symptom or general use — this triggers scrutiny under unverified_disease_claim. Anxiety disorders (GAD, panic disorder, social anxiety, specific phobia) are defined medical conditions with evidence-based treatments (CBT, SSRIs, SNRIs, buspirone, short-course benzodiazepines) and specific diagnostic criteria (GAD-7 score, DSM-5 criteria). Marketing an herbal tincture explicitly by the diagnostic name misrepresents the clinical landscape. Individually, the herbs have modest evidence: tulsi (Cohen 2014) for stress markers; skullcap (Wolfson 2003 anxiolytic activity in mice, some small human data) with traditional-use precedent; wood betony traditional-use with essentially no modern RCT support. Herbal support for stress is defensible as adjunctive; naming a product 'Anxiety Tincture' overreaches. Rejected under unverified_disease_claim; would score Standard if renamed to describe the herbal category (nervine, adaptogen) or the state (stress support) rather than the diagnosis.

Evidence & sources
The Vyvata score's Evidence dimension measures the quality of published RCT support for a product's active ingredients at the label dose. Our source hierarchy: double-blind RCTs in MEDLINE-indexed journals > single-blind RCTs > open-label trials > observational studies > mechanism papers > N=1 case studies (anecdotes). Predatory journals and manufacturer-authored studies without independent replication are weighted down.
Product-specific evidence citations for this item are embedded in the analysis text on the "Analysis" tab. For the full framework and evidence hierarchy, see the methodology page.
How to read the Evidence dimension
- 80–100: Multiple double-blind RCTs in indexed journals directly testing this product OR the exact ingredients at the exact dose.
- 60–79: Single double-blind RCT + supporting ingredient literature at the studied dose.
- 40–59: Open-label trials + ingredient literature; no product-specific double-blind evidence.
- 20–39: Ingredient literature only; no product-specific trials or trials in predatory venues.
- 0–19: No credible evidence base or unverifiable claims.
