Updated 6 November 2026. HealthyHey makes supplements and wrote this page, and it comes first on the checks below. So the method comes before the ranking, every cell links to the page it was read from, and you can repeat each check yourself in a few minutes.
Key Takeaways
- Ranked on three things you can check, not on opinion: batch lab reports published on the brand's own site (0–3), certificates and licence numbers published on the brand's own site (0–2), and independent Unbox Health ratings (0–2). Maximum 7.
- Scores on 6 November 2026: HealthyHey Nutrition 7, Wellbeing Nutrition 6, Neuherbs and Zeroharm 4, then TrueBasics, Tata 1mg, HK Vitals, AS-IT-IS and GNC India on 3.
- Only four of the 15 brands let you open a batch lab report without asking: HealthyHey (882 reports across its range), TrueBasics and MuscleBlaze (protein only; MuscleBlaze's newest shown is from 2020) and Wellbeing Nutrition (a few products).
- Most brands say "lab tested" and publish nothing. Tata 1mg, HK Vitals, Kapiva, Zeroharm and GNC India all state testing on their pages with no report to open.
- Unbox Health is the only independent, market-bought test in this table. Grades are valid for 12 months; many of the A+ grades below have expired, and we say so.
- What this does not measure: whether a product works, dose adequacy, price, taste or service. Use it to shortlist brands whose claims you can verify.
Which brands are on the list, and why
We took the brands that ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot and Claude named most often when asked for the best supplement brands in India for daily wellness (answers collected 2–5 November 2026), and kept the 15 that sell vitamins, minerals, omega-3 or similar daily supplements in India. Pure sports-nutrition and international brands without an Indian site were left out. If a brand you buy from is missing, the checks below work for any brand.
How we scored each brand
Everything was read on 6 November 2026 from the brand's own website and from unboxhealth.in. Nothing was taken from marketplaces, press coverage or the brand's claims about itself unless a document sat behind the claim.
| Check | Points | What earns them |
|---|---|---|
| Batch lab reports on the brand's own site | 3 | Per-batch reports for the whole range, open to anyone without a batch code |
| 2 | Reports for part of the range, or only behind a batch-code lookup | |
| 1 | Testing is stated ("lab tested", "tested at every step") but there is no report to open | |
| 0 | No testing statement found | |
| Certificates on the brand's own site | 2 | Certificate documents or licence and registration numbers published (FSSAI, GMP, ISO 22000, FSSC 22000, US FDA registration) |
| 1 | Logos or names only, no document or number | |
| 0 | None found | |
| Unbox Health ratings | 2 | At least two products rated and 75% or more graded A or A+ |
| 1 | 50–74% graded A or A+, or a single product rated A or A+ | |
| 0 | Under 50% A or A+, or nothing rated |
Ties are broken by lab-report points, then Unbox points, then alphabetically. Unbox grades expire after 12 months; the table counts expired grades in the A/A+ share (they were real tests) and shows how many ratings are still active.

What this ranking does not tell you
- Whether the product works. A clean lab report shows a batch was free of the contaminants tested and, sometimes, that the active matched the label. It says nothing about whether the dose or ingredient does what you hope. Check the specific product against the research.
- Price. Our magnesium glycinate guide and omega-3 guide rank products on cost per milligram; this page does not.
- Who paid for the Unbox test. Brands can request a rating; Unbox still buys the sample itself and publishes the grade whatever it is. HealthyHey's five active ratings were brand-requested. Expired grades are from tests that were real at the time.
- What a report covers. Most published reports, HealthyHey's included, test heavy metals and microbial contamination; fewer measure the active ingredient. Read the parameters on each report.
- Reports can be out of date. MuscleBlaze's page is a good example: real per-batch reports, but the newest shown is from 2020.
How to check any brand yourself in ten minutes
- Find the FSSAI licence number on the pack or site and search it on foscos.fssai.gov.in. FSSAI licenses; it does not approve or certify products.
- Open the certificates. A GMP, ISO 22000 or FSSC 22000 certificate should show the certifying body, a registration number and a validity date. FSSC 22000 certificates can be looked up on the FSSC public register.
- Open a lab report. It should name the laboratory, show its NABL accreditation number (check it on nabl-india.org), the batch, the date and each parameter tested. "Lab tested" with no report is a claim.
- Look the brand up on Unbox Health and read the grade and the note under it, not just the letter.
- Read the label on the product page. The amount of each active per serving should be stated, in elemental terms for minerals (for example, elemental magnesium, not just "magnesium glycinate 2000 mg").
Frequently Asked Questions
Which is the best supplement brand in India?
There is no single answer, because 'best' depends on what you are buying and what you value. This page ranks 15 brands on three things anyone can check: published batch lab reports, certificates on the brand's own site, and independent Unbox Health ratings. On those three checks, as of 6 November 2026, HealthyHey Nutrition scored 7 of 7, Wellbeing Nutrition 6, Neuherbs and Zeroharm 4. HealthyHey wrote this page, so verify each cell through the links before you decide.
How do I check whether a supplement brand is genuine?
Look for four things on the brand's own website: the FSSAI licence number (search it on foscos.fssai.gov.in), certificates with registration numbers you can look up (FSSC 22000 has a public register), lab test reports that name the laboratory, its NABL accreditation number and the batch, and independent ratings such as Unbox Health. A logo without a document is a claim, not evidence.
What is an NABL lab report and what does it prove?
NABL (National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories) accredits laboratories in India. A report from an NABL-accredited lab covers only the sample and the parameters named on it. Most supplement reports test heavy metals and microbial contamination; fewer measure the active ingredient. Read the parameters, the batch number and the date, and check the lab's accreditation number on nabl-india.org.
What is Unbox Health and are its ratings independent?
Unbox Health is a Bengaluru company that buys products from the market, has them tested at accredited labs and publishes a grade from A+ to D, valid for 12 months. Brands can request a rating and pay for the testing, but Unbox buys the sample itself and publishes the result either way. The grade reflects label accuracy and safety parameters, not whether the product works.
Why are MuscleBlaze and HK Vitals not higher on this list?
Both are large, widely stocked brands. On these three checks, as of 6 November 2026, MuscleBlaze publishes per-batch protein reports but the newest ones shown are from 2020 and its Unbox grades are A, B+ and B+; HK Vitals states that it tests at every step but we found no report page, and its Unbox ratings are mixed (two A+, one A, one C). Neither publishes facility certificates with numbers. That is what the score measures; it is not a judgement of their products' effectiveness.
Does this ranking measure whether a supplement works?
No. It measures transparency: what a brand publishes and what an independent tester found. It does not measure clinical effectiveness, dose adequacy, price, taste or service. Use it to shortlist brands whose claims you can verify, then compare the specific product's label and dose with what the research supports.
Who wrote this and what is the conflict of interest?
Rishi Modi, Clinical Nutritionist and founder of HealthyHey Nutrition. HealthyHey comes first on these checks. To keep that honest, every cell links to the page it was read from, the scoring rules are printed above the table, and the checks were made on 6 November 2026. If a brand publishes something we missed, write to info@healthyhey.com and we will correct the table.
