Unidentified manufacturer, no address, bogus UPC code on the label-- suspicious product
This CoQ-10 supplement arrived in a generic container with no identification or address for the manufacturer on the label. The UPC code (713807375232) has no record in any database I can find. This does not give confidence as to the origin of the product, its safety or quality, but as I looked into it, it got worse. There are lots of official looking "seals" printed on the label, such as "FDA Registered Facility" but the facility has no name or address. There is a seal that shows "GMP" or "Good Manufacturing Practice Compliance" under FDA standards. However, the FDA GMP requires that the label show "The name and address of the firm manufacturing the product or introducing it into interstate commerce" (quoting from the FDA document). The label does not show this, so that representation is false. A recognized reviewing organization says for the company "Mental Refreshment" (the only name listed on the label): "Based on 20 products and 597 product reviews, the average rounded percentage of inauthentic reviews found by the analysis engine is 60.0%." In other words, the company is scamming reviews and rates an "F" with an average of only 1.5 stars by trustworthy reviewers. There are many medicine and supplement scams in the market today. In the absence of any traceability in violation of FDA GMP guidelines I am requesting return authorization.
