Why this scored 62/100
This is Orgain Organic Plant Based Protein Powder (2.03 lb, Creamy Chocolate Fudge). Orgain is a well-established plant-protein brand founded by Dr. Andrew Abraham; the formula delivers 21g protein per serving from pea, brown rice, and chia, with a clean supporting profile (USDA Organic, Non-GMO Project Verified, gluten-free, dairy-free, soy-free, kosher, no added sugar). The evidence base for plant-blend proteins matching whey on muscle-protein synthesis when total leucine and daily protein intake are matched (Van Vliet 2015, Monteyne 2020) supports the category. Common gaps for plant proteins in this class: no per-lot Prop 65 heavy-metal COA published, no third-party certifications beyond USDA Organic, no per-batch lead/cadmium disclosure — plant proteins are the highest-heavy-metal supplement category per Clean Label Project 2020. Formulation is honest and label-accurate; score sits in solid Standard tier without pushing into Verified, because Orgain does not publish per-lot heavy-metal COAs and has been flagged in Clean Label Project reports for above-average lead levels in some batches.
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.

Every score is set from the published rubric, audit-logged, and rescored whenever new evidence emerges (published trials, updated labels, third-party testing releases). Every vendor is scored on the same criteria — no pay-to-play. See our editorial-independence disclosure for the full policy, including brands with an editorial relationship to this site.
