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:

Its 700 mg of docosahexaenoic acid ethyl ester (filed by NIH under DHA) (2 rows of the label added together) is higher than 94% of the 3,627 DHA products that print an amount; 216 list more.

The NIH database records 1 to 5 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.

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.
