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 760 mg of deglycyrrhizinated licorice (DGL) (glycyrrhiza glabra) root extract (filed by NIH under licorice) is higher than 91% of the 888 licorice products that print an amount; 63 list more.

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.
