Supplist grades specific health effects, not supplements overall. One supplement can look convincing for one use and weak for another.
Benefit grades and safety notes are separate. A strong benefit grade does not guarantee low risk, and a favorable safety label is not a reason to expect benefit.
We rely on human research, give the most weight to strong reviews, and keep claims narrow when the evidence only supports a narrow use.
