HoneyBoost has launched a new honey-flavored gummy that lists individual milligram amounts for each of its seven active ingredients, complying with federal labeling rules that allow but do not require this format.
Guide lists all seven ingredients per gummy and compares each amount with the amounts used in published research
OGDEN, Utah — November 10, 2026 — Honey Boost Research today published an ingredient guide for its HoneyBoost daily gummy that lists the amount of each of its seven active ingredients and places each figure beside the amount used in the published research most often cited for that ingredient, so readers can see where the gummy’s amounts match the studies and where they are lower.
The guide shows that one ingredient, tongkat ali, appears in the gummy at the same daily amount used in the study cited for it. The other six appear in smaller amounts than those used in the cited research or in typical diets. The company said it chose to publish the comparison because most online coverage of HoneyBoost repeats study findings without stating the amounts involved.
“If a study used 600 milligrams of something and a gummy contains 100, people should know that before they read about the study,” said Henry Lame, Team Executive at HoneyBoost Research. “We’d rather put both numbers side by side and let readers judge. That’s more useful than another list of ingredient benefits.”
The full label and guide are available on the HoneyBoost official website.

What Is Honey Boost?
Honey Boost is a chewable gummy dietary supplement sold in the United States under the HoneyBoost Research brand and distributed by Gex Corporation LLP of Ogden, Utah. Each bottle holds 30 gummies, a 30-day supply.
The label directions call for one gummy daily with an eight-ounce glass of water, 20 to 30 minutes before a meal, or as directed by a healthcare professional. The label advises against exceeding the recommended serving and recommends storing the bottle in a cool, dry place away from heat and light.
The company states that the product is manufactured in the USA using globally sourced ingredients. Under the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994, the company that markets a supplement is responsible for making sure it is safe and that its label statements are truthful. The FDA does not approve dietary supplements before they are sold.
The Honey Boost Supplement Facts Panel
The label lists the following active ingredients per gummy:
|
Ingredient |
Amount per gummy
|
|---|---|
|
Tongkat ali extract (Eurycoma longifolia) |
200 mg |
|
Maca root extract (Lepidium meyenii) |
100 mg |
|
Ashwagandha extract (Withania somnifera) |
100 mg |
|
Epimedium extract |
100 mg |
|
L-arginine HCl |
50 mg |
|

Every ingredient is listed with its own amount rather than grouped in a proprietary blend. The guide notes that this is the first thing readers should check on any multi-ingredient supplement, because a proprietary blend only has to disclose its total weight.
Honey Boost Ingredients: What Published Research Examined
The guide groups the research by ingredient. Each summary describes the study design and findings as reported by the original authors. None of these studies tested HoneyBoost.
Tongkat Ali (Eurycoma longifolia) — 200 mg
Tongkat ali is a shrub native to Southeast Asia whose root has long been used in Malaysia as a general health tonic.
In a 2013 study published in the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition, researchers gave 63 adults screened for moderate stress, 32 men and 31 women, either a standardized hot-water extract of tongkat ali root at 200 mg a day or a placebo for four weeks. The tongkat ali group showed lower salivary cortisol, a hormone linked to stress, and improved scores for tension, anger and confusion on a standard mood questionnaire.
How the amount compares: HoneyBoost contains 200 mg per gummy, the same daily amount used in the study. The study used a specific standardized extract, and the guide notes that tongkat ali extracts vary widely in how they are prepared.

Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) — 100 mg
Ashwagandha is a shrub used for centuries in Ayurvedic practice, where it is classed as an adaptogen, a plant believed to help the body adapt to stress.
A 2012 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in the Indian Journal of Psychological Medicine enrolled 64 adults with a history of chronic stress. Participants took 300 mg of a high-concentration ashwagandha root extract twice a day, 600 mg in total, or a placebo for 60 days. The ashwagandha group showed lower serum cortisol and lower scores on several standard stress questionnaires than the placebo group.
How the amount compares: HoneyBoost contains 100 mg per gummy, about one-sixth of the daily amount used in the study.
Maca Root (Lepidium meyenii) — 100 mg
Maca is a root vegetable in the mustard family that has been cultivated for more than 2,000 years in the central Andes of Peru, at altitudes between 4,000 and 4,500 meters.
A 2012 review in Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine by researcher Gustavo Gonzales describes maca’s long history as a food and traditional remedy in the Andes, where it has been used for nutrition and energy. The review notes that native communities typically eat the dried root in amounts of more than 20 grams a day, with no reported adverse reactions from food use.
How the amount compares: HoneyBoost contains 100 mg of maca extract per gummy. Traditional food use involves amounts many times larger, though extracts are more concentrated than whole dried root.
Epimedium — 100 mg
Epimedium, also known by the common name barrenwort, is a flowering plant used for centuries in traditional Chinese practice. Its leaves contain flavonoids, the best known of which is icariin.
Most modern research on epimedium and icariin has been conducted in laboratory and animal models. Human clinical research on epimedium extract at amounts similar to those in HoneyBoost is limited, and the guide says so directly.
How the amount compares: The guide does not cite a human study for this ingredient at a comparable amount. The company lists it as a traditional botanical.
L-Arginine — 50 mg
L-arginine is an amino acid found in protein-rich foods such as meat, fish, dairy, nuts, seeds and legumes. The body uses it to make nitric oxide, a molecule involved in blood vessel function.
An analysis of U.S. national nutrition survey data published in 2008 found that the average American adult consumes about 4.4 grams of L-arginine a day from food alone.
How the amount compares: HoneyBoost contains 50 mg per gummy, roughly 1% of the average daily dietary intake.
Beetroot Extract — 50 mg
Beetroot is a natural source of dietary nitrate, which the body converts to nitric oxide. Leafy greens are another common source.
A 2014 review in Sports Medicine by exercise physiologist Andrew Jones of the University of Exeter summarized research on dietary nitrate and exercise. Studies cited in the review found that nitrate supplementation, often in the form of beetroot juice, reduced the oxygen cost of moderate exercise. One study cited gave participants half a liter of beetroot juice a day for six days.
How the amount compares: HoneyBoost contains 50 mg of beetroot extract per gummy. The guide notes that the nitrate content of the extract is not stated on the label, and that the cited studies used juice volumes delivering far more nitrate.
Grape Seed Extract — 50 mg
Grape seed extract is made from the seeds of wine grapes and contains antioxidant compounds called proanthocyanidins.
The National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH) reports that grape seed extract is generally well tolerated when taken by mouth, and that research on its effects in people is limited, with few well-controlled studies.
How the amount compares: Studies of grape seed extract have used a wide range of amounts, often several hundred milligrams a day. HoneyBoost contains 50 mg per gummy.

“Some readers will look at this table and decide the amounts are too low for them, and that’s a fair conclusion to reach,”Henry Lame said. “Our job is to make sure they reach it with the right numbers.”

How to Read a Supplement Label
The guide also explains how to read any multi-ingredient supplement label. The company says it applies the same points to its own product.
Look for individual amounts. A label that lists each ingredient with its own milligram figure lets readers compare against research. A proprietary blend shows only the total.
Check the form. An extract can be more concentrated than the raw plant. A “10:1 extract” means 10 parts of raw plant were concentrated into one part of extract.
Compare against the study. If a study used 600 mg a day and the label shows 100 mg, the study’s findings do not automatically apply.
Read manufacturing claims precisely. “Made in an FDA-registered facility” describes the building, not product approval. GMP refers to the current Good Manufacturing Practice rules that apply to all U.S. supplement makers.
What to Know About the Gummy Format
Gummy supplements have grown in popularity among adults who prefer not to swallow capsules. The guide notes three practical differences readers should know about.
Ingredients per serving are limited by size. A single gummy has room for less active material than a large capsule or a scoop of powder. This is one reason amounts in gummies are often lower than those used in research.
Gummies contain other ingredients. Most gummies include a sweetener, a gelling agent such as pectin or gelatin, and flavoring. Readers watching their sugar intake should check the full label.
Storage matters. Gummies can soften or stick together in heat. The label advises storing the bottle in a cool, dry place away from heat and light.
Reading Honey Boost Reviews Online
Searches for Honey Boost reviews return company pages, retailer listings and third-party articles. Several similarly named products are sold online with different formulas. The guide suggests readers check three things in any review: whether it lists the full Supplement Facts panel with amounts, whether it names the studies behind its claims and the amounts those studies used, and whether it discloses a commercial relationship with the brand.
Availability
Honey Boost is available in the United States through the Honey Boost official website, which lists current pricing and return terms. The full label and ingredient source list are published on the same site.
Who Should Speak With a Doctor First
The company’s label guidance advises the following:
-
People who take prescription medicines, including thyroid, blood pressure or blood-thinning medicines, should check with a doctor before use.
-
People managing an ongoing health condition should talk with their doctor before adding any supplement.
-
People with known allergies should read the full ingredient list first.
-
The product is intended for adults and should be kept out of reach of children.
-
Do not use the product if the safety seal is missing or broken.
HoneyBoost is a dietary supplement, not a prescription drug, and is not a substitute for medical care.
