Why this scored 48/100
A sea moss (Irish moss, Chondrus crispus), bladderwrack (Fucus vesiculosus), and burdock root capsule that repeats the widely-circulated but scientifically dubious '92 out of 102 minerals' claim. The '92 minerals' figure originates from Dr. Sebi mythology and has no basis in analytical chemistry — the human body uses roughly 14 minerals, and no seaweed contains a bespoke set of '92 out of 102' anything. The safety concerns are real and specific: sea moss and bladderwrack are extremely high in iodine, with reported analyses showing single doses potentially exceeding the tolerable upper intake of 1100 mcg/day for adults; chronic overshoot causes thyroid dysfunction in both directions (hyperthyroidism or Hashimoto's-like hypothyroidism), and seaweeds are documented lead, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury accumulators. Auto-fail under unverified_medical_claim for the '92 minerals' framing plus a genuine safety concern for iodine overload and heavy-metal exposure without published testing.
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.
