Fails WP:PRODUCT. I can't find any significant coverage. References have been added since I PRODed it, but these are passing mentions. SmartSE ( talk) 00:14, 18 March 2014 (UTC) reply

  • Comment (ping User:Smartse) - How do you perceive this seven page source (presently in the Wikipedia article) about the topic as only consisting of passing mentions? This is significant coverage.

  • These were also all funded by the company. As primary research papers, they are also not very useful as sources per WP:MEDRS. SmartSE ( talk) 12:02, 18 March 2014 (UTC) reply
  • Keep per Northamerica1000's reliable source finds. I'm not sure about the Natural Medicine Journal, but the other journals look reputable. -- Mark viking ( talk) 03:35, 18 March 2014 (UTC) reply
  • Comment-- the sources pasted above by Northamerica1000 are not reliable per SmartSE's comments. Need independent secondary and tertiary sources. Lesion ( talk) 12:25, 18 March 2014 (UTC) reply
  • Delete Entire based on primary sources. No evidence of notability. Doc James ( talk · contribs · email) (if I write on your page reply on mine) 12:43, 18 March 2014 (UTC) reply

  • Comment - I have struck my keep !vote above per the discourse that has occurred here. NorthAmerica 1000 20:20, 18 March 2014 (UTC) reply
  • Comment I have struck my keep recommendation, too, based on new evidence that these sources may be reliable, but are not independent. Thanks for digging into this, SmartSE. -- Mark viking ( talk) 21:06, 18 March 2014 (UTC) reply
    • No problem. Thanks for taking another look. SmartSE ( talk) 14:32, 19 March 2014 (UTC) reply
  • Delete - per all of the above, sources providing significant coverage are primary in nature, and third-party sources are only providing passing mentions. NorthAmerica 1000 14:43, 21 March 2014 (UTC) reply
