Cholesterol supplements

Half of the 5,275 cholesterol supplements in the NIH label database that print an amount list 15 mg or less per serving; the middle half list 5 mg to 45 mg (DSLD version 9.4.0, January 2026). The 134 products whose only supplement ingredient is cholesterol list a median of 20 mg.

How much cholesterol do supplements contain?

The median product lists 15 mg per serving. One in ten lists 5 mg or less, one in ten 70 mg or more. The amount printed most often is 5 mg (1,242 products).

Which products list the most cholesterol?

On-market products, per serving, with a plausible amount: the rule leaves out likely entry slips, such as an amount far beyond every other label with no %DV or strength on the label to back it (each product page still shows its own amount, marked).
