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:
- 92% of the 14,175 products that print an amount of vitamin D list more than its 3.13 mcg (125 IU) of vitamin D (median 15 mcg (600 IU)).
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.
