What is in Phyto Greens?
Each row as the label prints it, per serving of 1 scoop. 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).

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:
- 95% of the 18,583 products that print an amount of vitamin C list more than its 11 mg of vitamin C (median 100 mg).
- Its 600 mg of organic broccoli (filed by NIH under broccoli) is higher than 90% of the 530 broccoli products that print an amount; 40 list more.
- 87% of the 221 products that print an amount of celery list more than its 25 mg of celery (median 75 mg).
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.
