Editorial standards
How Do We Write and Check SodaPeak Pages?
Our editorial standards are the rules the SodaPeak label desk follows on every page: the bottle label comes first, every health fact links to a public source, claims are tested against evidence, reviews are never invented, and mistakes are fixed and dated. We also say plainly that we earn money from order links.
Written by the SodaPeak label deskUpdated
The rulebook01
What are the editorial standards for SodaPeak pages?
The standards are eight written rules. Every writer on the SodaPeak label desk follows them, and every page is held to them before it goes up.
They exist because a seller's site has a built-in bias, so the rules must not bend when a sale is at stake.
Label first
The bottle beats the brief and the listing.
Link the source
Health facts cite NIH, FDA, FTC or a journal.
Test the claim
Each claim meets the evidence, not the ad.
No fake reviews
Only matched, consented reviews appear.
Show the math
Numbers come with the arithmetic.
Say what is unknown
Gaps are stated, not filled in.
Disclose money
We earn from order links.
Fix and date
Errors are corrected in the open.
Rule one02
Why does the SodaPeak label come before everything else?
The label comes first because it is the one document the maker is legally answerable for. A sales page can say anything, and the bottle cannot.
When the sources differ, we print each version and tell you which wins. The directions are the clearest case. The brief says one or two capsules daily, the label's serving is 2 capsules, and the listing says after a meal. The bottle decides.
The directions, warning and storage panels were not in the images we have, so we never quote them as printed. We name no maker, because the bottle names none.
Formal rules for blends back this up: ingredients must be listed in descending order of weight, and the blend line shows one combined amount (21 CFR 101.36 (Supplement Facts, proprietary blends)). That is the basis of our label math.
Rule two03
Which sources do we use for SodaPeak health facts?
We use public, checkable sources: US government health agencies, the FTC, and peer-reviewed or hospital-published reviews. Each is linked next to the claim it supports.
We cite only what a source says. If it covers a herb but not this blend, we say so.
| Source type | Used for | Limit |
|---|---|---|
| FDA and NIH pages | Rules, supplement basics, safety notices | Rarely cover this exact product |
| FTC guidance | Claims, reviews, endorsements | About advertising, not health |
| Cancer-center herb monographs | What each ingredient has been studied for | Cover the herb, not the blend |
| Medical societies | How low testosterone is diagnosed | Written for clinicians |
| The eBay listing | Price, shipping, returns | Can change without notice (eBay listing for SodaPeak) |
Rules three and six04
How do we test claims about SodaPeak?
We test a claim by asking what evidence would be needed, then looking for it. For a health benefit, the FTC expects competent and reliable scientific evidence, usually randomized human trials of the actual product (FTC, Health Products Compliance Guidance).
By that standard, no trial of SodaPeak exists. So we write "has not been shown", "no trial shows" or "claims to". We do not write that the capsules raise testosterone, treat any condition or build muscle.
Brand badges get the same treatment. They are claims by the seller, so each gets a plain note, and none is called a certificate.
| Source of the claim | How we word it |
|---|---|
| Printed on the bottle | Quoted with its asterisk, then tested |
| Seller's ad copy | "Claims to", with the evidence beside it |
| A single herb in a lab | "Studied in", never "works in" |
Rule four05
Why does this site show no star rating for SodaPeak?
This site shows no star rating because none is verified. We publish a review only after it is matched to a real order and the buyer agrees.
The seller's brief held sample scores and named reviewers. We left them out. The FTC rule bans fake or false reviews and testimonials, including ones written by AI, and lets the agency seek civil penalties (FTC, final rule banning fake reviews).
Fake celebrity endorsements are a related scam pattern (FTC consumer alert, fake celebrity endorsements). We found no verified endorsement of SodaPeak by any famous person as of our check. Read how this works on the SodaPeak reviews page.
Rule seven and medical review06
How are SodaPeak health pages medically reviewed?
Health pages are meant to carry a named medical reviewer. As of now, that reviewer is a fill-in slot, because no review is on file.
Once a clinician is named, we will print their name, credentials and review date in the box on the page. Until then we do not write "doctor reviewed".
Draft
The label desk writes the page from the label and sources.
Self-check
A script checks length, banned phrases, prices and links.
Medical review
A named clinician reads health pages. This step is open.
Publish and date
The page goes up with a dated update line.
Details are in about us. Pages also remind you to keep taking prescribed medicine, because a supplement does not replace it.
Rule seven07
How do we handle money and bias on SodaPeak pages?
We state the bias up front: Sodapeakdaily is a retailer of SodaPeak and earns money when readers buy through order links.
A fact that helps a sale gets the same checking as one that hurts it. Our cons lists name missing trials, hidden amounts and import fees.
The FTC says endorsements should reflect honest opinion and disclose material connections clearly (FTC, Endorsement Guides FAQ). We apply the same principle to ourselves.
Rule eight08
How do we correct errors on SodaPeak pages?
We correct errors in the open: check the line against its source, fix it, and move the updated date. Readers can report one at [email protected].
Prices and shipping go stale fastest, since the listing can change. We read them on October 19, 2026. If eBay shows a different number, trust eBay, then tell us.

Sources behind these standards
- Information for Consumers on Using Dietary Supplements. U.S. Food and Drug Administration, n.d..FDA states it is not authorized to approve dietary supplements for safety and effectiveness before they are marketed, and that many firms can sell supplements without notifying FDA. The Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 (DSHEA) changed FDA's authority over supplements, and the number of products has grown nearly twentyfold since then. FDA advises talking with a doctor or pharmacist before using a supplement, notes the FTC regulates supplement advertising, and points consumers to its problem-reporting portal.
- 21 CFR 101.36 - Nutrition labeling of dietary supplements. Electronic Code of Federal Regulations (FDA), current.Under paragraph (c), a proprietary blend is listed among the 'other dietary ingredients' under a label such as 'Proprietary Blend'. The ingredients inside the blend are listed in descending order of predominance by weight, indented beneath the blend name, and the amount shown on the blend's line is the combined weight of all the blend's ingredients, not the weight of each. A Daily Value symbol with a 'Daily Value not established' footnote goes with the blend, and the regulation includes a sample label showing one format.
- Federal Trade Commission Announces Final Rule Banning Fake Reviews and Testimonials. Federal Trade Commission, 2024.The final rule bans creating, buying, selling or spreading fake or false reviews and testimonials (including AI-generated ones) when the business knew or should have known they were fake, and bans paying for reviews with a set positive or negative sentiment. It also covers undisclosed insider reviews, company-controlled sites posing as independent review sources, review suppression through threats, and buying or selling fake social media followers or views. The Commission voted 5-0, and the rule lets the agency seek civil penalties against knowing violators.
- Did a celebrity really endorse THAT? Maybe not. FTC Consumer Advice (Jim Kreidler), 2024.Published April 24, 2024, the alert warns that scammers use fake celebrity and influencer testimonials, sometimes with doctored video and audio, so an ad that looks and sounds real may still be fraudulent. It advises searching the celebrity and product name with words like 'scam' or 'fake', being wary of pressure and 'limited time' offers, and talking to a health professional before taking supplements because the government does not review them for safety or effectiveness before sale. Suspected fake endorsements can be reported at reportfraud.ftc.gov.
- Health Products Compliance Guidance. Federal Trade Commission staff, 2022.The December 2022 guidance replaced the FTC's 1998 supplement advertising guide and says health-benefit and safety claims generally need competent and reliable scientific evidence, usually randomized controlled human trials; animal or lab studies alone are insufficient. Evidence must match the actual product, dose and population, and anecdotes and consumer testimonials never suffice to prove health effects. Vague qualifiers like 'may' or 'helps' are generally inadequate, the DSHEA disclaimer does not cure a deceptive claim, and traditional-use claims still need substantiation.
FAQ09
SodaPeak questions people ask
What is the SodaPeak label desk?
It is the writing role behind every SodaPeak page, not a single named person. It follows the written rules above, works from the label first, and links a public source beside each health fact.
Do you accept payment to change what you write about SodaPeak?
No. We earn money from order links, which is a bias we state openly. Money from a sale does not change the label math, the cons list or the empty review slots.
Why do you say 'has not been shown' so often?
Because no trial of SodaPeak exists. The FTC expects human trial evidence for health claims (FTC, Health Products Compliance Guidance), and without it the honest phrase is that a benefit has not been shown.
How often are SodaPeak pages updated?
When the label, the listing or a source changes, or when a reader reports a mistake. Each page shows its last updated date, and prices carry the date we read them.
Can a reader see which medical reviewer checked a page?
Not yet. The reviewer box is a fill-in slot with placeholders until a real review is on file. We will not print a name before then.
