Who Makes HorseMood? 5 Steps to Trace the Brand
Most bottles tell you who made them and where to write. This one does not. So tracing HorseMood is a small piece of detective work, and these five steps show what you can find and where the trail stops.
The bottle prints one company name, the brand line Vitalifes, with no address, phone number or website. It carries no Distributed by line, so the maker and distributor are not published. Thehorsemood, at 1 Astor Place, Floor 8, New York, sells it as the U.S. stocking partner. Lot HOR-26/TH-6587 and certificate reference HOR-6587-26-TH are printed.

Why does it matter who makes HorseMood?
A maker or distributor is the party that can answer hard questions. How much tongkat ali is in a capsule? What standardisation do the extracts have? Where does the bovine tissue come from? Is there a test report for this lot?
On most labels you can write to a named company with an address. On this bottle you cannot, because there is no Distributed by line at all. The only company name anywhere on it is the brand line Vitalifes, printed above the product name on the front.
That is unusual enough to say plainly. It does not prove a problem. It closes the one route a careful buyer would normally use, and it shifts weight onto the seller you buy from.
Key facts
- Brand line on the front of the bottle: Vitalifes. No address, phone number or website is printed beside it.
- Distributor or manufacturer: not published. The bottle has no Distributed by line.

- Batch on record: lot HOR-26/TH-6587, certificate reference HOR-6587-26-TH, expiry 07-2028. We were not given the certificate itself.
- The Thehorsemood Editorial Desk writes the pages, and Dr. Rachel Rubin, MD, Physician is the medical reviewer.
What are the 5 steps to trace the HorseMood brand?
Each step shows what you can find and what you cannot.
Step 1. Read the brand line on the front
The bottle shows the line Vitalifes above the name HORSEMOOD. Nothing else on the front names a company. There is no address, phone number or website next to it. That is as far as the bottle itself goes.
Step 2. Look for a distributor on the back and side
There is none. The Supplement Facts panel, the side panel and the boxed warning carry no Distributed by or Manufactured by line. If you are used to bottles that name a company and a city, this absence is the first thing to note.
Step 3. Identify the seller you are dealing with
Thehorsemood describes itself as the U.S. stocking partner for HorseMood. It lists an office at 1 Astor Place, Floor 8, New York, NY 10003, a returns address at 540 Madison Avenue, Floor 18, New York, NY 10022, an order desk number, +1 (302) 200-3480, and a website email, [email protected], answered Monday to Friday, 9:00 am to 5:00 pm ET. This is the party you can actually reach.
Step 4. Follow the batch trail
The batch on record is lot HOR-26/TH-6587 with a certificate reference of HOR-6587-26-TH and an expiry of 07-2028. A reference is a pointer, not a document. The certificate itself, with a laboratory name, test dates and results, was not published to us. So the batch trail leads to a reference and stops.
Step 5. Ask for what you need, and note who cannot answer
The order desk handles orders and refunds. It is not the maker and does not hold formulation records. The website inbox is for pages and corrections. So a request for a breakdown of the 1,200 mg blend, a standardisation figure or a test report has no obvious addressee. You can still ask the seller, and you can still ask your pharmacist what to make of the gaps.
The seller you can reach
The seller is the part of the trail you can reach. The listing shows the return terms, and the order desk answers by phone.

Who is who around a HorseMood bottle?
A short map, with the gaps marked.
| Party | What is published | What is not |
|---|---|---|
| Brand line | Vitalifes, printed on the front | Address, phone, website |
| Maker or distributor | Nothing | Name, address, phone, website |
| Seller on this site | Thehorsemood, U.S. stocking partner, with office and returns addresses, phone and email | Sales email address |
| Marketplace listing | Shows price, pack and return window at checkout | The window's length in advance |
| Batch | Lot HOR-26/TH-6587, certificate reference HOR-6587-26-TH, expiry 07-2028 | The certificate and any test report |
| Medical reviewer | Dr. Rachel Rubin, MD, Physician reviews the pages | Not a review of the product's safety for you |
Do the seals on the listing say who the maker is?
No. Four marks appear in the listing artwork: an FDA-registered facility roundel, a GMP seal, a foreign-and-domestic-ingredients seal and a money-back satisfaction badge. Each describes a facility, a set of rules, a sourcing fact or a marketing promise.
The FDA-registered facility roundel means a factory is listed with the FDA. It does not name the factory in the material we have. No laboratory name or test report sits behind the facility or GMP marks, and none sits behind the certificate reference.
So the seals add atmosphere, not a trail. They do not tell you who to write to. We say that not to wave them away. A registered facility is a normal requirement, and a GMP mark refers to real rules. They are just not a substitute for a named distributor.
Who writes and checks the pages that describe HorseMood?
The Thehorsemood Editorial Desk writes them, from the printed label and the supplied pack. Dr. Rachel Rubin, MD, a physician, reviews them for accuracy and safety. A medical review is not an endorsement of the product, and it is not advice about your own health.
Commission is earned on orders that come through the site, and every page says so. The editorial standards page explains how sources, review, ratings and corrections work, and you can send a correction through it.
This is also a reason we publish the gaps. A desk that earns a commission and still prints what is missing gives you more to work with than a page that prints none.
What can you do about a missing maker?
You cannot fix it, but you can plan around it.
- Buy through a route that traces to a named seller with an address and a phone number, and keep the order email.
- Check the seal, the lot number, the expiry date and the panel when the bottle arrives. A bottle with no lot at all is a reason to stop.
- Show the panel to a pharmacist, and tell them the amounts are not published.
- Read the return window on the listing, and compare it with the weeks you plan to test it.
- If you want a product whose maker you can name, look for a label that prints a distributor and an address.
HorseMood is a dietary supplement with no FDA approval and no claim to treat a condition.

Our view
The unusual thing about this bottle is not what it says. It is who it does not name. A brand line is a logo, not an address, and a batch reference is a pointer, not a report.
We do not read that as a scandal. Plenty of supplements travel through stocking partners and marketplaces. We read it as a limit. It means the usual question you would put to a maker has nowhere to go, and the seller becomes the one you rely on.
So trace what you can, keep your records and ask a pharmacist about the rest. If a named maker with a published certificate matters to you, say no for now. If a reachable seller with a clear return route is enough, you know what you are accepting.
Decide with the trail in view
