Vapofil Supplement Facts: The Panel Row by Row
The Vapofil panel gives a serving size of 2 capsules and 30 servings per container.
It itemises seven ingredients totalling 118 mg, with no Daily Value set for any of them. Other ingredients are microcrystalline cellulose, gelatin and magnesium stearate.
For each one in detail, see all seven ingredients.
The Vapofil panel gives a serving size of 2 capsules and 30 servings per container. It itemises seven ingredients totalling 118 mg, each carrying a dagger for “Daily Value Not Established”. The Other Ingredients line names microcrystalline cellulose, gelatin and magnesium stearate. The label is revised REV 10/24.
The panel, transcribed
Tap any row
** Percent Daily Values are based on 2,000 calorie diet. † Daily Value Not Established
Two things about the layout are worth noticing before the contents. The first is that every row carries a dagger rather than a percentage, which is correct: none of these seven has an established Daily Value, so there is no percentage to print. The second is the footnote itself, which reads “Percent Daily Values are based on 2,000 calorie diet” — a line that belongs on a food label and has nothing to attach to on a panel where no percentages appear.
Eight findings, in full
These are the eight things on this label that did not survive a check against the sources. They are numbered so they can be referred to from elsewhere on this site, and none of them is an allegation of wrongdoing — most are gaps between what a label says and what a reader will take from it.
01The marketing names six ingredients. The panel lists seven.
02The boron row says 20 mg. The boron in it is about 1 mg.
03Saw palmetto is at a sixteenth of the studied dose, for a use it is not studied for.
04Two of the seven ingredients have no monograph anywhere we looked.
05The nettle row specifies the leaf. The research is on the root.
06The extract ratios are published. The standardisation is not.
07The claims are the strongest in this category, and one is misspelled.
08The pack supplied fabricated experts and two government logos. We published none of them.
Finding 2 in detail: the boron row
Two of these bars are the same product. The panel prints 20 mg of Boron Amino Acid Chelate 5%; the 5% is the elemental boron in that chelate, so a serving delivers about 1 mg of boron. That is an ordinary dietary amount — the NIH puts median intake from food at 0.87 to 1.35 mg a day — and it is a twentieth of the 20 mg adult upper limit. The number is fine. The way the row reads is the problem.
The FDA’s labelling guidance requires the ingredient to be declared by its common name and its quantity. Boron Amino Acid Chelate 5% is the ingredient; 20 mg is its quantity. Everything on the row is correct. The 5% is doing the work of an elemental conversion that the reader is expected to perform.
Whether that matters depends on what a buyer thinks they are getting. Anyone who bought this specifically for boron — and boron appears in men’s formulas because of a small literature on hormone metabolism — will believe they are taking twenty times what they are. The NIH’s own position on boron is unambiguous: it “is not classified as an essential nutrient for humans because research has not yet identified a clear biological function for boron.”
Finding 3 in detail: the saw palmetto sum
The bars are on a logarithmic scale, because a linear one would flatten the top rows into hairlines. Every figure is a real published quantity. 320 mg is the daily dose used in the saw palmetto trials NCCIH summarises; this label carries 20 mg, about a sixteenth of it. The bottom bar is not an amount in the bottle — it is the dry-powder equivalent the panel claims for 10 mg of a 100:1 tongkat ali extract, which is a statement about concentration rather than about how much active compound is present.
Saw palmetto has been studied more than anything else on this panel, and the result is the reason it is worth writing down. NCCIH’s 2023 review concluded that the herb, used alone, “provides little or no benefit for BPH symptoms”. On everything else it is blunter still: “there is not enough evidence to determine whether saw palmetto is useful for other health purposes.” Libido is among the other health purposes.
So the ingredient with the deepest file on this label has a negative result for the condition it is famous for, and no file at all for the condition this product is sold for — at a sixteenth of the dose used to get the negative result.
The rest of the label, word for word
Everything printed on the artwork that is not the Supplement Facts panel. Quotation marks mean the words are exactly as printed.
| Block | What it says |
|---|---|
| Suggested use | “As a dietary supplement, take two (2) capsules daily with an 8 oz. glass of water.” |
| Storage | “Keep away from heat, light, and humidity to preserve freshness.” |

| Warnings | “KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.” · “DO NOT USE IF SAFETY SEAL IS DAMAGED OR MISSING.” · “STORE IN A COOL, DRY PLACE.” |
| Other ingredients | “Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC), Gelatin, Magnesium Stearate.” |
| Facility | “This product has been manufactured in an FDA registered facility.” |
| Origin | “Made in the USA with globally sourced ingredients” |
| FDA disclaimer | “These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.” |
| Distributed for | “GEX Corp, Lakeland FL, 33804” · +1 323-372-9581 · [email protected] |
| Revision | REV 10/24 |
| Count | “60 CAPSULES” |
Two of those blocks are better than they need to be. The facility line is carefully worded: it says the product was manufactured in an FDA-registered facility, which is true of any facility on the FDA’s list, and it stops there rather than implying approval. And the distributor block carries a company name, a city, a state, a zip, a telephone number and an email address, printed on the bottle itself. Several products this desk has covered printed none of that anywhere.
The caution block is the standard one and is correctly worded. What it does not do — and what nothing on this bottle does — is mention the two interaction flags that Memorial Sloan Kettering lists against ingredients on this panel. Those are on the safety page.
The seals on the artwork, and what each one is worth
Four marks appear on the seller’s artwork. None of them is a laboratory result, and only one has a number behind it.





The seals and testing page goes through each of them in full, including what a GMP certificate does and does not cover and why an FDA registration number is not a licence.

Read the panel first, then decide
Sixty capsules, two a day, seven actives itemised and two extract ratios printed — better label work than most of this aisle. What is missing is standardisation, and two of the seven ingredients have no monograph anywhere we looked. The live price and the 60-day return terms are both on the seller’s checkout screen.
