What the Label Data Shows

According to NIH DSLD label rows, DLPA sits in the top 91% of products with a countable formula by declared ingredient count.

DLPA is a compact, 3-ingredient amino acid/protein supplement from Carlson, sold in capsule form, cataloged in the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD). These ingredients span 3 nutrient categories, amino acid, mineral, other, reflecting a multi-component formula rather than a single-nutrient product.

With only 3 ingredients on the label, 3 of 3 do not have a percentage Daily Value in this DSLD source record, which is not evidence that an FDA reference value does or does not exist.

Market status matters for supplement research. This product is currently listed as off-market in the DSLD, with its label first entered into the database on 2015-12-23. Once a product goes off-market, it is no longer manufactured or sold under this label, yet the DSLD keeps the record intact for historical reference, useful for researchers, anyone with an older bottle on hand, or tracking how formulations changed over time.

About the DSLD database

The DSLD is a label database, not an FDA approval list, under the 1994 DSHEA framework, dietary supplements do not require pre-market approval, and label information reflects what manufacturers self-declare rather than independent laboratory verification. This page presents factual label data for reference only and is not medical advice; consult a licensed healthcare provider before making decisions about any supplement.
