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:
- 95% of the 15,277 products that print an amount of vitamin B6 list more than its 0.5 mg of vitamin B6 (median 6 mg).
The NIH database records 1 to 2 servings 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.

What does the label say about taking it?
Quoted from the label as DSLD transcribed it: the maker's words, including any claim about what the product does, which the FDA has not evaluated and PlainVitamins does not endorse.
- Directions
- Dosage: After lifting, there is a critical anabolic “window of opportunity” that exists. To take advantage of this nutritional period, take a pack within 15-30 minutes immediately after lifting. Even better, take 2 packs on your training days – the first preworkout, right before lifting, and the second postworkout. If you take a PWO shake, then take the Animal Nitro first, and then wait at least another 30-45 minutes before drinking that shake. When possible, take Animal Nitro on an empty stomach, preferably with 8-12 oz. of grape or other fruit juice.
- Warnings
- Made in a GMP facility on equipment that processes milk, soy, egg, peanuts, tree nuts, fish, shellfish, and wheat.
- Warning: Exercise good judgment and keep this out of reach of children.

- To keep it as fresh as possible, store this product in a cool, dry place, away from heat, moisture and sunlight.
