What the Label Data Shows
Bitter Melon 500 mg is a compact, 5-ingredient botanical supplement from Solaray, sold in capsule form, cataloged in the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD). These ingredients span 4 nutrient categories, non-nutrient/non-botanical, botanical, fiber, mineral, reflecting a multi-component formula rather than a single-nutrient product.
With only 5 ingredients on the label, 5 of 5 sit outside the FDA's reference-intake system, common for a compact label built from botanicals, amino acids, or specialty ingredients that simply don't carry an FDA-set Daily Value benchmark.
Market status matters for supplement research. This product is currently listed as on-market in the DSLD, with its label first entered into the database on 2025-01-23. An on-market listing means the product is currently sold in the United States; the DSLD catalogs the label as submitted but does not independently verify the claims or evaluate safety or efficacy.
About the DSLD database
