Effectiveness Rating: Gamma Oryzanol vs Phosphatidylserine

The effectiveness rating is a measure of the supplements' ability to decrease cortisol levels. This rating answers the question of whether or not a supplement does what it claims. The evidence shows phosphatidylserine is better than gamma oryzanol in its ability to decrease cortisol levels. Phosphatidylserine should provide some positive results while gamma oryzanol will not.

Confidence Rating: Gamma Oryzanol vs Phosphatidylserine

Another factor to take into account when comparing supplements is the confidence rating. This rating is a measure of how valid each supplement's effectiveness rating is. Remember, the confidence rating is a measure of how much you can trust the effectiveness rating. This rating is based on how many studies are included in the database on a supplement's claims. Ideally, you want a high effectiveness AND confidence rating.

Phosphatidylserine's confidence rating is higher than gamma oryzanol's. This means phosphatidylserine's effectiveness rating from above is more valid. This does not necessarily mean that phosphatidylserine works better, it simply means the evidence (included in this database) backing up phosphatidylserine is more established.
