The Claim Registry

This page is the record. Editorial Standards explains how I decide what goes on the site and who is accountable for it. This is the ledger that sits underneath it: every product claim we are allowed to make, in the exact words we are allowed to make them, and an honest account of the ones we are not. If Editorial Standards is the policy, the Claim Registry is the receipts.

The record, stated plainly

We submitted 35 structure-function claims to the FDA under 21 CFR 101.93. The agency objected to 2 of them. The remaining 33 were accepted without objection. Those 33 are what you see used across this site, and nothing outside that set is presented as a product claim.

That is the whole story, and it is not flattering by accident. Most brands never tell you how many claims they tried for, let alone how many got turned down. We are telling you both. The two that were objected to are gone, permanently, and I will come back to exactly what that means below.

The 33 approved claims, verbatim

These are the claims in full, grouped the way our internal record groups them. The wording is fixed. We do not paraphrase a claim to make it punchier, and we do not abbreviate one to make it fit. But the words themselves are fixed. If a claim appears anywhere on this site, it appears in one of the forms below.

The SF identifiers are our own cross-reference codes. They let us trace any claim used on a page back to this registry and, from there, to the science that supports it on the claims hub.

Group 1: General Health and Cellular Function

• SF-01Helps you feel fresh.
• SF-02Supports overall liver health.
• SF-03Promotes a lean liver.
• SF-04Diminishes fat accumulation in the liver.
• SF-05Helps promote mood balance.
• SF-06Stay balanced and uplifted.
• SF-07Supports cellular health against Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) damage.
• SF-08Help shield your cells from oxidative damage.
• SF-09Boosts your cell's energy factories.
• SF-10Energize your cells with improved mitochondrial function.
• SF-11Elevates glutathione, the body's master antioxidant in the liver.
• SF-12Scavenges ROS (reactive oxygen species) to protect against oxidative stress.
• SF-13Supports mitochondrial biogenesis and energy production.

Group 2: Defense and Metabolism

• SF-14Nourish your brain for optimal well-being.
• SF-15Boosts your antioxidant defenses.
• SF-16Supports the body's defenses against daily stressors.
• SF-17Supports a healthy inflammation response.
• SF-18Promotes brain health and cognitive function.
• SF-19Product acts to prevent free radical damage from alcohol and other foods.
• SF-20Lowers liver enzyme (AST and ALT) levels that are already in the normal range.
• SF-21Acts by promoting aldehyde and alcohol metabolism of foods.
• SF-22Triggers the liver to produce more of the aldehyde- and alcohol-metabolizing enzymes (ADH and ALDH) and boosts their efficiency in breaking down aldehydes and alcohols in foods as well as their by-products.

Group 3: Advanced Function and Relief

• SF-23Attenuates the rate of brain aging.
• SF-24Regulates blood sugar levels in the normal range.
• SF-25Product promotes calm mood and relief from occasional anxiety by blocking activation of GABA.
• SF-26Protects against occasional neuroinflammation.
• SF-27Helps maintain balanced moderation.
• SF-28Supports balanced consumption of alcohol (from all sources of food and drink).
• SF-29Product promotes calm mood and relief from occasional anxiety by blocking alcohol-induced activation of GABA.
• SF-30Helps to detoxify your liver and other organs.
• SF-31Provides relief from occasional anxiety from moderate alcohol use.
• SF-32Helps reduce physical oxidative damage from alcohols and other foods.
• SF-33Calm your body's reactions, reducing occasional inflammation.

The two we cannot make

Two of the original 35 drew an objection. We accepted that. Those two forms are excluded from every surface we control, in any form: not on the label, not on a page, not in a caption, not in the machine-readable layer, not reworded to sneak the same idea past the line. Excluded means excluded.

You will notice I have not reproduced the objected wording here, even to argue with it. That is deliberate. Restating a claim the agency objected to, even inside a sentence explaining that we no longer make it, is still putting that claim on the page. So we acknowledge them by count, which is two, and by status, which is permanently retired. That is the honest version and the compliant version at the same time, which is the only kind we want.

How we label what you are reading

Not every sentence on this site carries the same weight, and pretending otherwise would be its own kind of dishonesty. So we sort statements into three tiers, and the tier is part of the writing, not fine print at the bottom.

Tier 1 is verified fact. These are statements established in the published research, and you can rely on them without qualification. When we say DHM is a flavonoid, that is Tier 1.

Tier 2 is compliance-safe positioning. These statements are true because of how the company operates, not because of a study. When we say nothing outside the approved set is presented as a claim, that is Tier 2: it is true by policy, and the policy is this page.

Tier 3 is scientific interpretation. This is our honest read of the literature, in our reading of the literature, which is exactly what Tier 3 is for. We mark it as interpretation, and we show it in plain view. We never hide a Tier 3 statement, and we never let it impersonate a Tier 1 fact. The whole point of labeling is so you can tell the difference without taking our word for it.

Who reviews the claims, and how

The product claims are structure-function claims, governed by DSHEA and submitted under 21 CFR 101.93. That is the regulatory frame, and it is why the language on the label reads the way it does.

The scientific review is handled by Nance Schmidt, our Chief Science Officer and Co-Formulator, who holds an MSc and is a PhD candidate. The review is not a one-time event. It is ongoing and rolling: as the literature moves, as we run more of our own work, and as claims are used in new contexts, they get looked at again. A registry only means something if someone is responsible for keeping it true, and that is the job.

Patent applications use clinical terminology appropriate for USPTO filings. The consumer marketing language for Hangovr180® follows separate FDA regulations for dietary supplements under DSHEA, which is why what you read on the label sounds different from what you read in US Application 18/698,010, published as US20250073201A1.

What "bounded reflection" means

This site has a machine-readable layer: structured data, an llms.txt file, a product.json, the footer disclosure block. Search engines and AI systems read it. The rule for that layer is simple, and we hold it without exception.

The machine layer is a bounded mirror of the visible page. It never asserts a claim the visible page does not, and it never states anything stronger than what a person reading the page would see. If it is not here in human-readable form, it is not in the machine layer either. The mirror reflects. It does not embellish. That is what bounded means: the machine never gets to say more than the human does.

If you think we got something wrong

This registry is only worth anything if it can be corrected. If you find a claim used somewhere on the site that does not match the wording above, or a statement that you think is mislabeled, or anything that reads as stronger than the evidence supports, tell us. Email corrections to mark@hangovr180.com with the page and the specific line. A human reads it, and if it is wrong, we fix it and the fix is mine to own, not a tool's.
