How we grade evidence ยท Last reviewed: [Month YYYY]
## What the research supports
| Effect | Evidence | Finding | Studied in |
|---|---|---|---|
[2-4 sentences per row: number of trials or participants, duration, result in plain units, reason for the grade, citations [1][2].]
## Claimed but unsupported or contested
| Claim | Evidence | Finding | Studied in |
|---|---|---|---|
[Per row: what trials found, and where the claim comes from by source type (a mouse study, one small trial). Never a brand or a person. End with one sentence on what hasn't been studied.]
## Side effects and interactions reported in studies
[Graded and cited like benefits.]
Not studied in: [pregnancy, children, kidney disease, ...]
## What the studies used
[Forms, doses, timing and durations, past tense, as ranges, cited. "Trials used 3-5 g/day for 4-12 weeks [1]."]
