Editorial and Review Policy

This page describes exactly how products on this site are researched, what is checked, how claims are separated from evidence, how commercial relationships are handled, and what happens when something is found to be wrong. It is written so a reader can hold the site to it.

Who applies this policy

All research and writing on this site is done by Samuel, who operates it. He is studying toward a Doctor of Pharmacy and is not a licensed pharmacist or practising clinician. No content on this site is medical advice, and no page is reviewed or endorsed by a healthcare professional.

How a product is researched

Start from the product, not from other reviews

Packaging images, the Supplement Facts panel where one is legible, the official product page and the seller’s own documentation are the primary sources. Other review sites are not used as a source of product facts, because errors propagate between them — ingredient lists in particular.

Record only what can be seen

An ingredient is listed here only if it appears on the label or in official materials. Ingredients that appear in third-party write-ups but cannot be confirmed from the product are named as unconfirmed and excluded from the formula description. Per-serving amounts are published only when the panel actually discloses them.

Look up the evidence for each ingredient separately

Evidence is drawn from PubMed-indexed literature and from public health bodies — the NIH Office of Dietary Supplements, NCCIH, MedlinePlus, the relevant NIH institutes and the Cochrane Library. Systematic reviews and meta-analyses are preferred to single trials. Every reference links out so a reader can open the source.

State the gap between the two

Research on an isolated ingredient at a studied dose does not establish that a finished blend containing that ingredient at an undisclosed dose produces the same result. Where no trial of the finished product exists, this site says so directly rather than implying that ingredient research stands in for it.

Record the commercial terms as a snapshot

Prices, package options, shipping charges, bonuses and refund windows are recorded from the official checkout on the date of writing, and readers are told to confirm the current figures before ordering, because sellers change them without notice.

Write the limitations alongside the benefits

Every product page includes what is not disclosed, what could not be verified and who should be cautious. A page that lists only advantages has not been reviewed — it has been advertised.

What is evaluated

Formula transparency: Are ingredients named? Are per-serving amounts published, or hidden inside a proprietary blend?
Evidence quality: What does published research on the named ingredients show, at what doses, in which populations, and how consistently?
Claim accuracy: Do the seller’s claims match what the evidence supports? Are regulatory terms such as “FDA registered” being used in a way a reader could misread as approval?
Safety and interactions: Which medicines and conditions warrant a conversation with a clinician before use?
Format and use: Capsule, powder or liquid; servings per container; the intended pattern of use.
Commercial terms: Price per unit across packages, shipping, bonuses, the stated guarantee and who the retailer of record is.
Disclosure: What the seller does not publish, and what this site could not verify.

How claims are checked

Marketing language is attributed. “The seller states”, “the official page claims” and “marketed as” signal a manufacturer claim. Unattributed sentences are the site’s own reporting of a verifiable fact.
Regulatory language is corrected in place. The FDA does not approve dietary supplements. Where marketing implies otherwise, the page says so explicitly.
Absence of evidence is reported. When a database search returns no trial of a finished product, that null result is published as a finding.
Contradictions in seller materials are noted. Where an official page states its own guarantee length or ingredient list inconsistently, the inconsistency is reported rather than silently resolved in the seller’s favour.
No disease claims are made or repeated. Products here are not described as treating, curing or preventing any condition.

Ratings, reviews and testimonials

This site publishes no star ratings, no numeric scores, no aggregate review counts and no customer testimonials. This is a deliberate policy, not an omission. A rating implies a measurement, and there is no verified pool of user experience behind these products to measure. Publishing one would be inventing precision that does not exist — and structured data on this site does not contain aggregateRating or fabricated Review markup either.

Editorial independence and commercial relationships

This site earns affiliate commissions on purchases made through its links. Commission rates do not determine which products are covered, what is written about them, or the order in which they appear. Product limitations are published whether or not the product is a commercial partner.

One relationship stated plainly

Gluco6 is operated by the same team that publishes this site. Where Gluco6 appears in the directory, no claim of arm’s-length independence is being made — the relationship is disclosed instead, so a reader can weigh it. Every other product covered here is researched independently of its manufacturer. Full detail is in the affiliate disclosure.

What this site does not do

It does not perform laboratory testing, assays or independent chemical analysis. It has no such capability.
It does not run clinical trials and does not test products on people.
It does not accept payment for a favourable review, and it does not remove published limitations at a seller’s request.
It does not give medical advice, and it does not tell any individual reader whether a product is right for them.

Corrections

Prices change, formulas are reformulated, and research moves. When something here is found to be wrong:

Send it to contact@nittricboost.com, ideally with the page and the source that shows the correct information.
The claim is checked against the primary source — the label, the official page or the cited study.
If it is wrong, the page is corrected and its last-updated date is changed.
Where a correction materially changes what a reader would conclude — a price, a guarantee length, an ingredient, a safety point — the change is noted on the page rather than made silently.
If a claim turns out to be right, that is explained to whoever raised it.

Correction requests are welcome from readers and from sellers alike. A seller pointing out a genuine factual error will get it fixed; a seller asking for accurate limitations to be removed will not.

Health content and your clinician

Every product page on this site directs readers to a qualified healthcare professional where that is the appropriate step — particularly for anyone taking nitrates, blood-pressure medication, PDE-5 inhibitors, anticoagulants or antiplatelet therapy, and for anyone pregnant, nursing, scheduled for surgery or managing an existing condition. Nothing here replaces that conversation. See the disclaimer.
