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:
- 75% of the 32 products that print an amount of uridine monophosphate list more than its 50 mg of uridine-5'-monophosphate disodium (filed by NIH under uridine monophosphate) (median 200 mg).
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.
