About Unbox Health
Unbox Health is India's independent ratings platform for packaged foods and health supplements. It purchases products directly from the open market and works with a network of NABL-accredited, FSSAI-approved labs to test them.
Unbox Health looks at three things: does the label match what's actually inside the pack, is it free from anything harmful, and, for food products, how it holds up nutritionally. To keep results accurate, every sample is checked at up to three premium labs.
Products are rated on a scale from D to A+.

What This Means for Consumers
What this means for you: when you buy Cellular Defense, Energize & Focus or V Balance, you're not just relying on what's printed on the pack. It's been independently tested by Unbox Health, and the full results are public, so you can check the details yourself instead of taking anyone's word for it.
A Note from Albae
At ALBAE, we wanted our product claims to be supported by more than just what we put on the label. Having our Energize & Focus , Cellular Defense and V Balance products independently tested and reviewed by Unbox Health gave us an opportunity to validate what we were putting in front of our customers.
All products received an A+ rating, with a 10/10 Non-Toxicity Score. The testing also verified key nutritional information and checked for contaminants, giving us an additional layer of confidence in our formulations.
For us, the value of this independent verification is simple: customers can look beyond our own claims and see that our products have been evaluated through an external testing process. It helps us communicate our commitment to transparency, quality, and science-backed plant-based nutrition with greater confidence.
Rating Validity
These ratings are valid until 20 Aug 2027 (Cellular Defense), 11 Sep 2027 (Energize & Focus) and 5 Oct 2027 (V Balance). Unbox Health retests every product after 12 months to keep ratings current.
