How a pick is chosen
Three steps, in the open.
Research
Independent certifications, disclosed ingredients and recall history, checked against our published criteria.
Computed, not assigned
Our rating runs from one published formula for every product. No one hand-picks a number.
Dated checks
Our own ingredient-panel checks carry a date, because an undated badge is marketing.
