How to assess LactiGo research
Redox-style marketing is not the issue here; evidence matching is. A patent, an ingredient paper, a finished-product trial and an athlete testimonial tell you different things.
Use this evidence hierarchy
Useful context
Human research on carnosine, beta-alanine, magnesium or menthol can explain biology, but may use a different product or delivery route.
Not proof
Patents, testimonials, team use, star ratings and “as seen on” logos do not establish that a product caused a health or performance outcome.
Key distinction: a US patent can confirm that an invention is protected. It does not certify that every promotional claim about the invention is clinically proven.
Five questions for every study
What was tested?
Was it LactiGo itself, an individual ingredient, oral beta-alanine or a laboratory model?
Who participated?
Athletes, recreationally active adults and older people cannot automatically be treated as the same population.
What was the comparison?
Look for placebo or another appropriate control, randomisation and blinding where feasible.
What outcome was measured?
A sensation, questionnaire, blood marker and performance test answer different questions.
Was it replicated?
A single small or manufacturer-associated study is a starting point, not the final word.
Drug-tested athletes
The manufacturer states that LactiGo is Informed Sport certified. Certification is valuable but should be checked against the exact current product or batch and your governing body's rules.
