Is that a lot?

Every amount on this label with a position sits within the middle 80% of the products that list the same ingredient; 4 ingredients sit inside a blend, so their amounts cannot be compared.

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.

Sources: amounts from the DSLD label; Daily Values from 21 CFR 101.9(c)(8)(iv); adult upper limits from the Institute of Medicine's DRI summary tables (2011). How positions are computed.

Directions
Suggested serving: 2 tsp per day. Can be sprinkled on food or mixed in your favorite beverage. Usage tips: Absolute Maqui Powder is great blended into a protein shake or fruit smoothie. It also mixed into yogurt well. To more easily mix it into juice, soften it a bit first by putting powder in a glass with a few tablespoons of warm (not hot) water and mixing. Then add your juice to the glass and mix. Note: This is freeze dried fruit/berry powder - it is not water soluble! It's like adding fruit pulp to juice.
Warnings
Warning: Please discard the inedible freshness packet.
