# Navitas Organic Gelatinized Maca Powder — 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.

## Overall (safe to quote)

Organic Gelatinized Maca Powder by Navitas — public trust assessment of 3 observed badge claim(s): Organic: Certification Match Found; Gluten-Free: Limited Public Support; Fair Trade: Limited Public Support. These statuses reflect publicly available evidence only, not a review of the seller's own certificates or documents.

## Claims checked

### Gluten-Free

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 43/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “All of our products are inherently gluten-free and are tested to ensure less than 20 parts per million”
- **Certifier named:** GFCO
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a Gluten-Free claim with limited public support. Specifically, a certifier lists this brand as certified, but not this specific product, and 1 independent organisation published evidence relevant to this claim. Public evidence found is company-level, product-level. 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. GFCO's standard: Stricter than the FDA's own <20 ppm labeling rule.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-21
- **Limitation:** Generic certifier-directory search skipped: a structured GFCO match already resolved this badge with higher confidence than a text-directory probe could add.
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.

### Organic

- **Status:** Certification Match Found (`public_certification_match_found`)
- **Evidence strength:** 85/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Organic Gelatinized Maca Powder Organic Gelatinized Maca Powder”
- **Certifier named:** Control Union Certifications B.V. (via USDA Organic Integrity Database)
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a Organic claim and a public certification record from Control Union Certifications B.V. (via USDA Organic Integrity Database) appears to match this product or product family. This supports a strong public certification signal, but does not confirm this specific batch, which would require a review of the seller's own certificates or documents. Specifically, a certifier's records list this exact product as certified, and the product page displays a recognized certification mark. Public evidence found is company-level, product-level. This claim is backed by a certifier that evaluates products against a published standard — using documentation, supply-chain traceability, and testing of high-risk inputs where the standard requires it. That is not the same as testing every finished product, and this public evidence does not cover the exact package or lot in your hand. This claim's own wording corresponds to the USDA National Organic Program (US)'s '100 percent organic' labeling category (requires at least 100% organic content; may display the official organic seal).
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-28
- **Limitation:** Claim text could not be reliably extracted (repeated/garbled pattern detected) — verify against the live product page.
- **Limitation:** Generic certifier-directory search skipped: a structured Control Union Certifications B.V. (via USDA Organic Integrity Database) match already resolved this badge with higher confidence than a text-directory probe could add.
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.

### Fair Trade

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 6/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Featured Best Sellers On Sale Bundles New Products Fairtrade Cacao Store Locator Subscribe & Save About Our Purpose”
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a Fair Trade claim with limited public support. Public evidence found is 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.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-21
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.
- **Limitation:** Self-review note: The bundle only checked the three named certifiers (Fair Trade USA, Fairtrade America, FLOCERT) but never checked other fair-trade certifiers like Fair for Life, Fair Trade Federation, or SPP, which are plausible certifiers for a superfoods brand and could yield a real match.

## 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.
