What the Label Data Shows

With 40 ingredients on the label, Green Defense is one of the more extensive other combinations supplement formulas from Jarrow Formulas in the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD), sold in powder form. These ingredients span 11 nutrient categories, botanical, fat, blend, fiber, and 7 more, reflecting a multi-component formula rather than a single-nutrient product.

Across a broader 40-ingredient formula, 40 of 40 fall outside the FDA's Daily Value system altogether, expected for a broader formula -- the more ingredients a label lists, the more likely it accumulates botanicals, amino acids, or specialty compounds the FDA has never benchmarked.

Availability status shapes how this label record is best used. This product is currently listed as off-market in the DSLD, with its label first entered into the database on 2012-04-26. Off-market products are no longer being produced or distributed under this label, but the DSLD preserves their historical label data for researchers, consumers checking older bottles, and for tracking how formulations have evolved.

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.
