Is that a lot?

The rows in the top or bottom tenth of the products that list the same ingredient, and any above the adult upper limit at the most servings a day the directions give:

  • Its 10,000 mg of non - GE lecithin (filed by NIH under lecithin) is higher than 99% of the 804 lecithin products that print an amount; 4 list more.

The NIH database records one serving a day from the label's directions; its % Daily Values are for adults and children 4 or more years of age. The directions as printed are further down this page.
