Proof — Case Study

Cheers Health
Three weeks, not six months.

Science Intelligence™

A major retail door opened — but only for products whose every on-pack claim could clear the retailer's strict clinical evidence bar. No time for new trials. No appetite for a six-month review.

The Story

Cheers builds supplements for smarter drinking and liver health. A national retail distribution opportunity opened for a reformulated product system with a hard deadline attached. The retailer's science threshold: on-pack claims backed by qualifying double-blind, placebo-controlled RCTs at the formula's actual dose.

We ran an AI-powered Lit Review™ of the full formulation space — existing Cheers ingredients, new candidates, and branded forms — scored against the retailer's evidence standard. And we answered the bonus question: which recently published science could strengthen claims on the ingredients Cheers already sells today?

Cheers walked into the retail conversation with formulation options, claim-by-claim substantiation, and new literature supporting its existing lineup — in three weeks, not six months.
