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:

  • 96% of the 3,627 products that print an amount of DHA list more than its 27 mg of docosahexaenoic acid (filed by NIH under DHA) (median 232 mg).
  • 60% of the 1,744 products that print an amount of vanadium list more than its 10 mcg of vanadium (median 25 mcg).

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.

The Tolerable Upper Intake Level is the most of a nutrient per day, from food, water and supplements together, that is likely to pose no risk for almost all adults (Institute of Medicine, 2011). It does not apply under medical supervision. This page compares labels; it is not medical advice.
