Why this scored 40/100
VeggieVerve/Livingston Naturals 'Organic Soursop Turmeric Bitters' combines soursop (multiple parts of the plant), turmeric, nettle, Cape aloe, ginger, clove, black pepper, and apple cider vinegar as a digestive bitters formulation. Bitters as a category have modest traditional-use evidence for stimulating digestive secretions, but the specific product carries a foreground safety concern: soursop (Annona muricata) contains annonacin, an inhibitor of mitochondrial complex I associated with atypical parkinsonism in Guadeloupe epidemiological studies (Caparros-Lefebvre 1999, 2002). Featuring 'multiple parts of the soursop plant' as the leading ingredient in a formula intended for regular daily use is exactly the chronic-exposure pattern the neurological safety data warns against. Cape aloe is a stimulant laxative associated with dependence and electrolyte disturbance at chronic doses. Multi-herb anticoagulant potentiation (turmeric + ginger + clove) creates bleeding-risk concerns for users on prescription blood thinners. Autofail on safety_concern.

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.
