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:

  • At 1 serving a day, the most its directions give, the label lists 40 mg of niacin, 1.1 times the adult Tolerable Upper Intake Level.
  • Its 300 mcg of iodine is higher than 95% of the 6,382 iodine products that print an amount; 235 list more.
  • Its 250 mcg of chromium is higher than 90% of the 7,825 chromium products that print an amount; 641 list more.
  • Its 150 mcg of molybdenum is higher than 93% of the 4,390 molybdenum products that print an amount; 164 list more.
  • 84% of the 2,407 products that print an amount of alpha lipoic acid list more than its 10 mg of R-lipoic acid (filed by NIH under alpha lipoic acid) (median 50 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.

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.
