Is that a lot?

  • 91% of the 14,175 products that print an amount of vitamin D list more than its 3.3 mcg (132 IU) of vitamin D (median 15 mcg (600 IU)).
  • At 3 servings a day, the most its directions give, the label lists 375 mg of magnesium, 1.1 times the adult Tolerable Upper Intake Level.

The NIH database records 3 servings 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.
