How to Read This Reference

  • What it signals → what the label is meant to communicate

  • What it doesn’t → what the label does not guarantee

  • The Standard → what actually matters when evaluating a product

Labels are indicators, not conclusions. This guide separates marketing language from formulation, certification, and regulatory reality.
