What the Label Data Shows

Max Potency Sambucus is cataloged in the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD) as a botanical supplement built from 7 ingredients from Nature's Way, sold in softgel capsule form. These ingredients span 5 nutrient categories, botanical, fat, non-nutrient/non-botanical, other, and 1 more, reflecting a multi-component formula rather than a single-nutrient product.

Across a broader 7-ingredient formula, 7 of 7 sit outside the FDA's reference-intake system entirely -- common at this scale, since multi-ingredient blends tend to accumulate botanicals, amino acids, and specialty compounds the FDA has never benchmarked. That's expected breadth, not a red flag on its own.

A product's market status is worth checking before relying on this label. This product is currently listed as off-market in the DSLD, with its label first entered into the database on 2015-10-22. 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.
