This is a combination testosterone-support product built around deer antler velvet, whose IGF-1 marketing claims have essentially no human RCT support (early Sleivert-era rugby study was negative, and no follow-up has established anabolic effect in healthy men). NutraKey's 'Test' line typically uses a proprietary blend without per-active mg disclosure, which is a transparency autofail under our rubric. Even setting the blend aside, the underlying evidence base for deer antler is animal-tier only. Would need to move to a fully disclosed formulation built around evidence-supported actives (KSM-66 ashwagandha, standardized Tongkat Ali/Physta or LJ100, boron 10mg) to escape the Rejected tier.
Auto-fail rule triggered: Proprietary blend hides dose.
The product uses a proprietary or 'proprietary blend' formulation that hides per-ingredient dosages. Without knowing the amount of each active ingredient, users cannot verify whether the blend meets RCT-supported effective doses. See the full rubric →
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.

Strongest: Manufacturing at 45/100 (third-party testing, GMP compliance, and facility audit status) and Safety at 45/100 (adverse-event profile, interaction risk, and dose ceiling). Weakest: Transparency at 35/100 (dose disclosure vs proprietary blends, and honesty of marketing claims) and Evidence at 25/100 (quality of published RCT support for the active ingredients at the label dose). All six dimensions feed the overall Vyvata score; a weakness on any one dimension pulls the overall down proportionally.
No third-party certifications (NSF, USP, ConsumerLab, or equivalent) were on record at the time of scoring. This affects the Manufacturing dimension score. The manufacturer may test internally or have obtained certification more recently — check the current product label for the most up-to-date information.
This product triggered the Vyvata auto-fail rule "proprietary_blend_hides_dose", which places it in the Rejected tier regardless of its scores on other dimensions. See the full explanation above and the methodology page for the current list of auto-fail rules.
