Ranked products
Rankings blend total score with mode-specific emphasis (value, transparency, certs, cleaner labels). Weak totals and soft safety scores are damped so one bright lane cannot rescue a bad overall profile.
What matters here
Read serving sizes, certificate claims, and how the formula maps to the ingredient hub. Big price premiums need a clear upside on transparency or form quality.
Only 1 products in this category on file - ordering is still useful, but treat it as a snapshot, not a exhaustive market scan.

We reuse the v1 product rubric: ingredient fit, dose plausibility, formula quality, additive/excipient burden blended with label-clarity, transparency, value (when price data exists), and a conservative safety floor. Rank reasons are generated from score shape - no hand-waved editorial winners.
