What is in BoneFactor?

The capsule beside an amount places it among every product in the NIH database that lists the same ingredient: the bar is the middle half of their amounts, the line in it the median, the whiskers the 10th and 90th percentiles; the green tick is the FDA Daily Value and the red dashed tick the adult upper limit (IOM).

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 800 mg of calcium (2 rows of the label added together) is higher than 95% of the 17,831 calcium products that print an amount; 891 list more.
  • At 1 serving a day, the most its directions give, the label lists 460 mg of magnesium, 1.3 times the adult Tolerable Upper Intake Level.
  • Its 50 mg of silica (filed by NIH under silicon) is higher than 94% of the 1,220 silicon products that print an amount; 55 list more.

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.
