BloomWellA tea that lists no doses tells you which herbs are present and their rank order, not their strength. US rules let a blend declare one combined weight.
A tea that lists no doses tells you its ingredients and their rank order, and almost nothing about strength. Under US rules a blend can declare one combined weight for everything inside it. This is written into the regulation. 21 CFR 101.36(c)(3) says the quantitative amount for a proprietary blend is the total weight of all other dietary ingredients in it.
Start with what is verifiable rather than what is implied. The panel on All Day Slimming Tea names its herbs and separates a morning blend from an evening one, and the maker's own page is where its account of the formula lives. The readable part is sequence: whatever sits first in a blend is present in the largest amount. What you cannot read is magnitude. The list is a roster. It is not a dose.
Order matters most when an ingredient has a known effect. Senna is a stimulant laxative, and NCCIH notes that cleanse programs may include laxatives, which can cause diarrhea. NCCIH also reports there was no compelling research supporting detox diets for weight management. The undisclosed dose is the part that matters most, so talk with your doctor.
Undisclosed amounts are legal, common, and used by careful manufacturers and careless ones alike. A blend disclosure tells you about a labeling choice, not about sourcing or testing. NCCIH notes that what is listed on the label may not be what is in the product. A no-dose label is neither evidence of a bad product nor a good one.
Some questions a label can settle and some it cannot. It can tell you which herbs are present, which plant parts were used, and which ingredient dominates each blend. It cannot tell you potency, standardization, or how a serving compares with research doses. Ask the narrower questions it can answer, then take the rest to the maker and to your own doctor.
“A no-dose label is not evidence of a bad product, and it is not evidence of a good one. It moves the burden onto everything outside the panel.”
Supplements are not regulated the way medicines are. NCCIH states that rules for dietary supplements are less strict than those for drugs, and that FDA lacks authority to review supplements for safety and effectiveness before marketing. All Day Slimming Tea is a third-party product, and every claim about what it does belongs to its maker, not to BloomWell.
One habit to carry away: read the panel top down, note which herb leads each blend, then look up that single herb first. Rank order is the one quantitative thing you are guaranteed. The maker of All Day Slimming Tea publishes its own account and offers a 60-day money-back window. You can read the maker's full explanation and weigh it with clear eyes.

Under 21 CFR 101.36(c)(3), the amount stated for a proprietary blend is the total weight of all other dietary ingredients in it, so single-herb amounts stay undisclosed. [1]
One combined weight covers the whole blend, so single amounts stay hidden.
Ingredients must be listed in descending order of predominance by weight.
Potency and testing live outside the panel. Request them in writing.
| What you want | On the label? | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Named herbsSenna alexandrina | Yes, required | Common name plus plant part |
| Rank order | Yes, required | Descending weight within blend |
| Amount per herb | No | Only the blend total is declared |
| Tested potency | No | Ask the maker for documentation |
No. Under 21 CFR 101.36(c)(3) a proprietary blend may declare one total weight, so individual ingredient amounts are not separately required on the panel.
Order. Ingredients inside a blend must be listed in descending order of predominance by weight, so the first name is present in the largest amount.
Not by itself. Undisclosed amounts are legal and common. It removes your ability to verify potency, so judge the maker on testing and transparency instead.
Senna is a stimulant laxative. NCCIH notes cleanse programs may include laxatives, which can cause diarrhea. Ask your doctor before using it regularly.
No. NCCIH states FDA lacks authority to review supplements for safety and effectiveness before marketing, and rules are less strict than for drugs.
