Evidence Passport
Evidence strength, status, identity, route and safety are scored separately.
Human evidence
Human source linked; classification pending
A human source exists, but its strength and applicability have not completed review.
Development status
Investigational — phase 2
Investigational development is not the same as approval or product suitability.
Identity match
Named compound linked
Sources are linked to the named compound; formulation and product quality remain separate questions.
Route relevance
Study protocol recorded
At least one linked source records a studied protocol; it remains study context, not an instruction.
Safety record
4 documented flags
Documented flags are visible, but absence of a listed risk would not prove safety.
No major catalogue gap is flagged, but personal suitability and product quality remain separate.
