Score breakdown
Score Breakdown
The product uses Cordyceps sinensis fruiting body, the highest-scoring source type, at 1,000mg per serving, which meets the dose adequacy threshold. The brand states a beta-glucan content of 48%, which scores the maximum 4 points, though this figure is brand-stated rather than third-party verified. The extraction method is not publicly disclosed, scoring 0; for Cordyceps, hot water extraction is the established standard, so this gap is notable for context.
The brand states the mushroom source type clearly and discloses a country of origin (Europe). However, the extraction method is not publicly disclosed and no COA is publicly available, which are significant gaps. Beta-glucan content is disclosed at 48% but is brand-stated only, with no named laboratory or publicly accessible COA to independently verify this figure.
With 1,000mg of fruiting body per serving and a brand-stated beta-glucan content of 48%, the platform calculates 480mg of beta-glucans per serving. At a price per serving of £0.5198 (using the one-off price across 50 servings, as the subscription saving of 10% is below the 15% threshold), the cost per 100mg beta-glucan is £0.1083, which falls within the exceptional value tier. The value score reflects this calculation and is 9.46.
The brand holds a Trustpilot score of 4.6 from 1,362 reviews, meeting the threshold for the maximum 5 points in that sub-dimension. The brand states it conducts third-party testing, but no COA is publicly available, so the third-party testing score is 1. Organic certification is claimed but no certification body is named, scoring 1 point.
A subscription is available, but cancellation terms and lock-in conditions are not clearly stated on the product page, scoring 3 points. The return policy is 21 days, which falls within the 14 to 29-day band and scores 2 points. The brand operates in the UK and ships to the UK, scoring the maximum 3 points for UK availability.

How Erbology could improve this score
Path to improvement
+0.8 points to reach Fully Verified
+0.8
pts needed
- 1
Publish the extraction method used for the Cordyceps fruiting body — this would add up to 2 points to the ingredient quality score.
- 2
Make the COA publicly available on the product page — a full-panel COA from an ISO 17025-accredited laboratory would add 3 points to the transparency score and 2 additional points to the trust score.
- 3
Have beta-glucan percentage verified by a named third-party laboratory and link the COA — this would move the beta-glucan disclosure score from 1 to 2 points.
- 4
Name the organic certification body — this would increase the organic sub-score from 1 to 2 points in the trust dimension.
- 5
Publish clear subscription cancellation terms on the product page — this would increase the subscription flexibility score from 3 to 4 points.
