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).

- 94% of the 100 products that print an amount of deer velvet list more than its 3.3 mg of deer antler velvet extract (filed by NIH under deer velvet) (median 50 mg).
