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 5 g of creatine MagnaPower magnesium creatine chelate (filed by NIH under magnesium creatine) is higher than over 99% of the 140 magnesium creatine products that print an amount.
  • Its 1,000 mg of betaine hydrochloride is higher than 97% of the 914 betaine hydrochloride products that print an amount; 22 list more.
  • At 1 serving a day, the most its directions give, the label lists 3,000 mcg of vanadium, 1.7 times the adult Tolerable Upper Intake Level.

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.
