Why this scored 50/100
African mango (Irvingia gabonensis) — weight-loss category. The primary positive trials (Ngondi 2005, 2009 and Oben 2008) were conducted by a small group of overlapping authors and have been criticized for methodological weakness and lack of independent replication; Onakpoya 2013 Cochrane-style review deemed evidence 'insufficient.' 'Full spectrum' raw seed powder here isn't the standardized IGOB131 extract of the trials. Held in Rejected tier by weak/replication-failed evidence and mismatch between product form and studied form. Would move up only with an independent well-powered RCT.

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.
