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:

  • At 2 servings a day, the most its directions give, the label lists 69.6 mg of zinc, 1.7 times the adult Tolerable Upper Intake Level.
  • 90% of the 1,215 products that print an amount of zeaxanthin list more than its 0.12 mg of zeaxanthin (median 1 mg).

The NIH database records 2 servings a day from the label's directions; its % Daily Values are for adults and children 4 or more years of age. The directions as printed are further down this page.
