Editorial standards
SodaPeak Editorial Standards: How Pages Are Written, Sourced, Reviewed and Corrected
Pages on this SodaPeak site start from the label, use only public sources such as NIH, FDA, CDC, FTC, Mayo Clinic, MedlinePlus and Memorial Sloan Kettering, and state what each source says. They make no disease claims and no results claims, publish no unverified reviews or reviewer names, and carry a medical review box and a date.

The rules01
What rules do the pages on this SodaPeak site follow?
Seven rules, applied to every page. They exist because this is a seller's site, and a seller's site needs stricter limits than most.
The label wins
Where the seller's brief and the printed label differ, the pages follow the label and say the brief differs.
Sources, with dates
Every health statement links to a public page, and the source's date is shown.
Say only what the source says
No stretching a result to a different dose, form or population.
No disease or results claims
No page says SodaPeak treats, prevents or diagnoses anything, or that it changes a lab value or a body measure.
Say what is unknown
Amounts, the maker, lab reports and prices are stated as unknown, not filled in.
No invented people or reviews
No reviewer, rating or customer is shown unless verified.
Correct in the open
Errors are fixed and the page date is changed.
Sources02
Which sources does this SodaPeak site use?
Government and academic health pages first. Where a herb has no such page, a named reference such as LiverTox or RxList is used and labelled as such.
The aim is to rely on organizations with no stake in the sale: NIH's Office of Dietary Supplements, NCCIH, FDA, CDC, FTC, MedlinePlus, Mayo Clinic and Memorial Sloan Kettering. For the liver safety of tongkat ali the site uses LiverTox, an NIH resource, and for orchic substance it uses RxList, which says plainly that evidence is insufficient to rate.
| Source type | Used for |
|---|---|
| FDA | Supplement rules, hidden drugs, testosterone products, MedWatch (FDA 101: Dietary Supplements) |
| NIH ODS and NCCIH | Boron, saw palmetto, exercise supplements, using supplements wisely |
| Memorial Sloan Kettering | Summaries on horny goat weed, nettle, wild yam, sarsaparilla and saw palmetto |
| LiverTox | Tongkat ali and the liver |
| CDC and Mayo Clinic | Activity, sleep, strength training and testosterone with age |
| FTC | Advertising evidence and review rules (FTC, Health Products Guidance) |
The full list of sources, with links and dates, is at the bottom of every page.
Claims03
How does this site handle product claims?
It reports what the label says, compares it with the sources and keeps its own voice free of promises.
The front of the bottle says "SUPPORTS HEALTHY MUSCLE*". The pages quote it as the label's wording and add nothing. When the seller's materials or a search phrase suggest something stronger, the pages decline to repeat it. FDA says firms must have substantiation for structure and function claims and include the disclaimer that FDA has not evaluated them (FDA, Q&A on Dietary Supplements), and the FTC says health claims need competent and reliable scientific evidence (FTC, Health Products Guidance). A seller's page should meet at least that bar.
The claims vs evidence page shows the process: the claim, what a source says about it and what remains unknown.
Medical review04
How does medical review work on this SodaPeak site?
A qualified reviewer checks that each page matches its sources and promises no medical result. The reviewer is named only once confirmed.
At the moment the reviewer fields on every page are labelled fill-in slots, because a name has not been supplied for publication. No person is credited in the meantime. When a name is confirmed, it will appear with credentials, a role and a review date, and the date will change when a page is reviewed again.
A review does not make a page medical advice, and it does not mean the reviewer endorses the product. It means the statements were checked against the cited sources. The about page shows the review box as it appears on every page.
A page cannot know your health, your medicines or your history. Show a clinician the full label before you take any supplement.
Reviews and endorsements05
What is the policy on customer reviews?
No review, rating or reviewer is shown until verified customers supply them, and no one is paid or pressed for a particular sentiment.
The FTC's rule bans fake or false reviews and testimonials, including AI-generated ones, buying reviews conditioned on sentiment, undisclosed insider reviews, company-controlled "independent" review sites and review suppression (FTC, Fake Reviews Rule (2024)). This site's policy is to meet that rule and go one step further: nothing is shown that is not matched to a real order.
The vendor's photos on the review cards are labelled "supplied by the vendor". They are not reviews. The reviews page explains how real reviews will be handled and how to read reviews anywhere.
Money and prices06
How does this site handle prices and affiliate interests?
It shows no prices, because they change and belong at checkout, and it discloses that the seller earns the sale.
The pages describe pack sizes and days of supply in arithmetic terms and send you to checkout for the amount. That removes a place where a stale or misleading number could sit. It also means you compare the real total, with shipping, before you pay. The seller's financial interest is stated on the about page.
No competitor is named, and no page says SodaPeak is the best or number one. The pages describe what the label says and what the sources say, and leave the choice to the reader.
The limits07
What will this SodaPeak site not do?
It will not promise a result, name a competitor, invent a person or fill a gap with a guess.
- It will not say SodaPeak treats, prevents or diagnoses any disease, or that it changes a lab value.
- It will not publish a star rating, a review count or a reviewer name that has not been verified.
- It will not print a price, a discount or a struck-through price. Checkout shows the real terms.
- It will not name a manufacturer, a lab or a doctor that the label does not name.
- It will not say FDA has approved the product. FDA does not approve supplements before sale (FDA 101: Dietary Supplements).
- It will not compare SodaPeak with other brands by name or call it the best.
These limits sometimes make pages less exciting than a typical sales page. That is the point. The reader is better served by an honest gap than by an invented answer, and a short list of firm facts is easier to check than a long list of claims.
Updates08
How often are the pages updated?
When a source, the label or the seller's terms change, and at least when a source page is revised. The date on each page shows the last check.
Several sources used here carry their own dates, and the pages show them. A source dated years ago is still used when it is the latest word, but the page says how old it is. When FDA, NIH or CDC revise a page, the affected statements are checked again. If the new wording differs, the statement changes with it.
The same applies to the product. If a new batch changes the label, the supplement facts page, the ingredients pages and the blend arithmetic are redone from the new panel. Nothing is carried over on trust.
