The blend, read plainly
FlowNerves Proprietary Blend: Six Names, No Amounts Printed
The seller says FlowNerves holds a proprietary blend of six named ingredients: magnesium glycinate, alpha lipoic acid, butcher's broom, L-carnitine, turmeric extract and coenzyme Q10. No amount is printed for any of them in anything we have. That means no one can compare the capsule with the doses used in studies. Check the Supplement Facts panel on your own bottle.

Six names01
What does the FlowNerves blend actually contain?
The seller names six ingredients and says they sit in a proprietary blend. That is the whole list we can stand behind. The names below are shown with a hatched bar where an amount would go, because no amount is printed.
- 01Magnesium glycinateMagnesium bound to the amino acid glycineamount not printedA needed mineral; sold for sleep, muscles and calm
- 02Alpha lipoic acidA sulfur-containing antioxidant the body also makes in small amountsamount not printedSold for blood sugar and nerve comfort; the best-known nerve studies are in diabetes
- 03Butcher's broom root extractAn evergreen shrub (Ruscus aculeatus); the root is usedamount not printedSold for leg veins and circulation
- 04L-carnitineAn amino-acid-like compound the body makes and uses to move fats into the cell's energy plantsamount not printedSold for energy; one form (acetyl-L-carnitine) has nerve research
- 05Turmeric extract (95% curcuminoids)Extract of the turmeric root; the sales page says 95% curcuminoidsamount not printedSold for inflammation and joints
- 06Coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone)A fat-soluble compound found in every cell's energy plants; the oxidized form is ubiquinoneamount not printedSold for cellular energy and heart health
The numbers are the order of the seller's list, which we cannot confirm is weight order. The hatched bar stands for an amount the seller has not printed; it is not a measurement. Studies of single ingredients say nothing about this capsule.
Think of the list as a cast without a script. You know who is in the room, not who speaks for ten seconds and who speaks for an hour.
The seller's materials also say one name, turmeric extract, is "95% curcuminoids". That is a purity statement about the extract. It is not a per-capsule amount, and we cannot see it on a label.
How the rule works02
Why does a label hide amounts inside a blend?
A proprietary blend is a legal way to print one total instead of many separate figures. Under the federal labeling rule, the blend gets a name, and the dietary ingredients inside it are listed in descending order of weight, with a single total for the group.(eCFR, 21 CFR 101.36) The FDA's labeling guide asks for the blend total and the order, not a weight for every ingredient inside.(FDA, Dietary Supplement Labeling Guide, Ch. IV)
So a blend is not a violation. It is a choice about how much to show.
There is one carve-out worth knowing. Nutrients that have an official Daily Value are meant to be declared on their own line with their own weight. Magnesium has such a value.(NIH ODS, Magnesium (HP)) If magnesium sits inside the blend on your bottle with no weight beside it, that is a fair question to put to the seller. We cannot see the panel, so we do not accuse. We only flag the question.
| Item | Rule in plain words |
|---|---|
| Blend name | Must be shown, as "Proprietary Blend" or a descriptive name |
| Total weight of the group | Shown once for the whole blend |
| Order of ingredients | Heaviest first, indented under the blend name |
| Weight of each ingredient | Not required inside the blend |
| Ingredients with a Daily Value | Declared separately with their own weight |
Known and not known03
What can we confirm, and what can we not?
Only the front of the bottle reached us. It shows the wordmark, the count of 30 capsules and the words "NERVE SUPPORT*". It does not show a Supplement Facts panel, a back label or an allergen line. The board below keeps the two columns apart.
Stated by the seller or printed on the front
- A dietary supplement in capsules, 30 to a bottle
- One capsule a day with a meal and a full glass of water (the seller's FAQ)
- A proprietary blend, named by the seller
- Six named ingredients: magnesium glycinate, alpha lipoic acid, butcher's broom root extract, L-carnitine, turmeric extract, coenzyme Q10
- Turmeric extract at 95% curcuminoids (the sales page)
- A 60-day satisfaction promise from the original purchase date
- Free shipping on the 6-bottle kit (the sales page)
Not printed anywhere we can read
- How many milligrams of any name sit in a capsule
- The blend's total weight
- Which form of L-carnitine is used
- The order of the names (we cannot say it is weight order)
- A Supplement Facts panel, other ingredients and any allergen statement
- A distributor, manufacturer or testing lab
- Any study of the finished capsule
- Any result: no source shows it changes tingling, numbness or nerve damage

This matters because the word blend can feel like an answer. It is not. A blend tells you how the label is arranged. It does not tell you how much of anything is inside, and it does not tell you the six names appear in weight order. We cannot say that, because we have not seen the panel that would show it.
Dose and studies04
Does a hidden amount change the evidence?
Yes, and this is the center of the matter. Studies test a named ingredient at a stated dose in a stated group of people. When the dose in a capsule is unknown, the study cannot be carried over.
The FTC makes the same point in its health product guidance: an advertiser must compare the dose and formulation of its product with the one that was tested, and differences between extracts can matter a great deal.(FTC, Health Products Compliance Guidance)
Alpha lipoic acid is the clearest case. Its nerve studies were in people with diabetes, at doses well above what a small capsule usually holds. The label gives us no way to tell where FlowNerves falls.
Stacking questions05
How could the six names behave together?
Unknown amounts also make mixing harder to judge. Three names deserve a pharmacist's eye because each has a known medicine link.
- Alpha lipoic acid can lower blood sugar, so people on diabetes medicine should ask first.(MSK, Alpha-Lipoic Acid)
- Coenzyme Q10 is flagged by cancer-center and federal sources for people on warfarin, though one small trial found no change in clotting.(Engelsen 2003, CoQ10 and warfarin trial)
- Turmeric extract has liver-injury reports, mostly with high-absorption forms, and a blood-thinner caution.(NCCIH, Turmeric)
A blend does not cancel any of these. It only hides how big the dose is. If you take a blood thinner, a diabetes medicine, blood-pressure medicine or thyroid medicine, show the six names to your pharmacist first.

What should you check on the bottle that arrives?
When the bottle is in your hand, you can settle most of these questions in a few minutes. Work through them in order.
- Find the Supplement Facts panel and read the serving size. Confirm it says one capsule.
- Look for the words "Proprietary Blend" or a named blend, and the single total beside them.
- Read the order of the six names under the blend, and note where magnesium sits.
- Check whether any ingredient has its own line and weight outside the blend.
- Read the other-ingredients line and any allergen statement, and the lot and date.
Write down what you find. If the bottle prints less than the seller's materials led you to expect, the 60-day guarantee is the tool for that.
Questions to send07
What can you ask the seller before ordering?
Questions cost nothing, and a plain answer is itself information. The order desk answers orders and refunds at +1 (302) 200-3480. The site inbox, [email protected], answers questions about these pages but cannot see orders.
- What is the total weight of the blend per capsule?
- Is magnesium declared on its own line, and at what weight?
- Which form of L-carnitine is used, and which form of curcumin?
- Can you share the certificate of analysis for lot FN-26/TH-4977?
A seller with a clear panel answers these in a line. Silence, or an answer that repeats "premium formula", tells you what you wanted to know.

FAQ09
FlowNerves questions people ask
Is a proprietary blend illegal on a supplement?
No. Federal rules allow it if the blend is named, its total weight is shown and the ingredients are listed from heaviest to lightest. The rules do not require a weight for each ingredient inside.
Does FlowNerves list how much magnesium glycinate it holds?
Not in anything we have. Magnesium has a Daily Value, so ask whether it is declared on its own line on the bottle's panel.
Why do you not print milligrams for the six names?
None are printed in the seller's materials or on the bottle front we saw, and we will not guess. A guess could mislead a reader who takes a medicine.
Can a hidden blend still be safe?
It can be, but safety cannot be judged without amounts. Show the six names to a pharmacist if you take any prescription.
Does "95% curcuminoids" tell me how much turmeric is in a capsule?
No. It describes the purity of the extract, per the sales page. It says nothing about how many milligrams sit in one capsule.
