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:
- 90% of the 320 products that print an amount of krill oil list more than its 0.3 g of neptune krill oil(TM) (filed by NIH under krill oil) (median 1 g).
