Why this scored 62/100
Extra strength shilajit — 'extra strength' is a marketing descriptor, not a quality specification. Shilajit's evidence base (Pandit 2016 for testosterone, Keller 2019 for connective tissue) is at specific doses of the PrimaVie material. Higher dose is not necessarily better — quality depends on fulvic acid content and heavy-metal freedom, both of which need third-party testing (raw shilajit can carry mercury/lead). Held at Standard because sourcing is not named and heavy-metal testing not published. Would move up with PrimaVie or Purblack sourcing plus heavy-metal COA.

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.
