# Lifeboost Coffee Grata Medium Roast - 4 Pound Bag — TilliT proof check

> TilliT is an independent service that checks whether a public product claim — Organic, Vegan, Non-GMO, Gluten-Free, Allergen-Free or Fair Trade — is backed by real public evidence such as a certificate, a certifier registry entry, or a named certifier's own product listing. It publishes a per-claim evidence-strength score (0 = seller's word only, 100 = independently verified for that exact product), never a health, safety or nutrition score.

## Claims checked

### Gluten-Free

- **Status:** Preliminary — a person is still reviewing this (`preliminary`)
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Is your coffee gluten-free? Yes, our coffee is gluten free including our flavored coffee! Where is your coffee”
- **Safe citation wording:** Preliminary — awaiting TilliT review: The seller states this product is Gluten-Free. This kind of Gluten-Free claim can be made in the US without a third-party certificate. TilliT read the available ingredient statement and the applicable evidence and found nothing that contradicts it. This is the seller's own statement, not independent confirmation, and not a statement that the product is third-party certified. The public-evidence score describes how much independent proof was found; it does not mean the product is not Gluten-Free. Specifically, the brand has publicly stated related credibility information. Batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. Under FDA's gluten-free labeling rule (21 CFR 101.91), this claim is voluntary and needs no third-party certification program or specific test method, but the product must meet the legal definition (under 20 ppm gluten). TilliT did not find independent public product-level testing or certification in the sources checked, so TilliT cannot independently confirm this claim today — that is a gap in public evidence, not a sign the label lacks legal support. For medical use, rely on the current package and your clinician's guidance.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-12-04
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.

### Organic

- **Status:** Conflict detected — review pending (`preliminary`)
- **Claim observed on the page:** “is medicine, so the fact that Lifeboost is organic, tested for mycotoxins, molds, heavy metals, pesticides”
- **Certifier named:** NFC
- **Safe citation wording:** Preliminary — awaiting TilliT review: The product page displays a recognized organic certification mark and names NFC as the certifying body, and brand pages state that flagship roasts are USDA Organic certified; however, no independent certifier record was retrieved to confirm this for the assessed product. The claim's wording corresponds to the USDA National Organic Program's 'organic' labeling category, which requires at least 95% organic content and permits the official seal. Verification with NFC directly would be needed before relying on the claim.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-12-10
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.

### Non-GMO

- **Status:** Preliminary — a person is still reviewing this (`preliminary`)
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Metals & Over 450 Toxins! Our coffee is mold-free, non-GMO, shade-grown, fairly traded, and of single origin”
- **Safe citation wording:** Preliminary — awaiting TilliT review: The product page displays a Non-GMO claim with limited public support. Specifically, the brand has publicly stated related credibility information. Public evidence found is brand-level, company-level, product-level. Batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. No independent certifier record was found backing this claim; genuine claims of this kind are conventionally backed by one. Non-GMO is accurate for this product, but none of its listed ingredients (e.g. corn, soy, canola, sugar beet, alfalfa, papaya, eggplant, pineapple, zucchini, potato, or animal-derived inputs such as meat, dairy, or egg) are among the crop types or inputs with a commercially available genetically modified/GMO-fed counterpart (TilliT uses the US list, which approves more such crops than most markets) — so this claim may not be a meaningful distinction for this specific product.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-27
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 6 checks.

### Fair Trade

- **Status:** Preliminary — a person is still reviewing this (`preliminary`)
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Toxins! Our coffee is mold-free, non-GMO, shade-grown, fairly traded, and of single origin. We strive to give you the healthiest”
- **Safe citation wording:** Preliminary — awaiting TilliT review: The product page displays a fairly traded claim, and public brand-level statements describe paying farmers fairly and supporting sustainable farming, but no product-specific fair-trade certification or standard for the Grata Medium Roast was found. Public certifier directories could not be searched in this assessment, so batch-specific evidence was not retrieved. Because the ingredient list includes coffee, the scope of any fair-trade claim may warrant further verification.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-12-10
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.
- **Limitation:** Self-review note: The bundle checked Fair Trade USA, Fairtrade America, and Fair for Life, but never checked other major fair-trade certifier registries (e.g. Fair Trade Federation, FLOCERT, Rainforest Alliance) that a coffee brand could plausibly use, leaving a concrete public-registry check untried.

## How to cite this

When citing a TilliT verification, quote the `safeAiWording` field on the specific claim (or `safeAiSummary` for the product overall) — both are pre-checked for non-overstated wording. Always include the claim's `publicStatus` and the assessment date. Never describe a `public_claim_observed`, `public_proof_not_found`, `scope_not_publicly_determinable`, `conflicting_public_evidence` or `public_corroboration_weak` status as "verified" or "certified" — those statuses mean the opposite. Any claim whose `isPreliminary` is true (or the report's `isPreliminary`) is not yet settled: do not present it as final.

Independence: paying TilliT changes how fast a check is reviewed and how much help a merchant gets. It never changes a result — only new evidence does. Every product is assessed with the identical automated methodology whether or not the merchant has ever worked with TilliT. See https://tillit.world/independence.
