What is in Confidence?
Each row as the label prints it, per serving of 1 packet. 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).
| Ingredient | Amount | % DV | Among products listing it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Zembrin | 25 mg | 52% of 63 products listing sceletium give more (median 50 mg). Per day at the most servings: 50 mg. | |
| Dihydrohonokiol-B | 10 mg | ||
| Affron | 28 mg | 57% of 201 products listing saffron give more (median 30 mg). Per day at the most servings: 56 mg. | |
| Shodenas Ashwagandha Leaf Extract, Ashwagandha root extract | 120 mg | 76% of 1,646 products listing ashwagandha give more (median 250 mg). Per day at the most servings: 240 mg. | |
| Magnesium L-Threonate | 500 mg | 119%* | The label names the compound (Magnesium L-Threonate); its amount is likely the compound's weight, not the magnesium it holds, so it is not placed among other products. |
| Sage Extract | 333 mg | Higher than 70% of 138 products listing sage (median 200 mg). Per day at the most servings: 666 mg. | |
| Caffeine | 100 mg | 72% of 3,358 products listing caffeine give more (median 200 mg). Per day at the most servings: 200 mg. | |
| L-Theanine | 200 mg | Higher than 61% of 1,602 products listing theanine (median 100 mg). Per day at the most servings: 400 mg. |
* % Daily Value computed from the printed amount and the FDA Daily Value (21 CFR 101.9); the label prints none for that row.

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:
- 52% of the 63 products that print an amount of sceletium list more than its 25 mg of zembrin (filed by NIH under sceletium) (median 50 mg).
The NIH database records 1 to 2 servings a day from the label's directions; its % Daily Values are for adults and children 4 or more years of age.
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.
