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 2.4 mg of copper is higher than 96% of the 6,468 copper products that print an amount; 277 list more.
  • 97% of the 2,363 products that print an amount of black pepper list more than its 1 mg of bioperine (filed by NIH under black pepper) (median 5 mg).

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.
