What is in Super-B?
Each row as the label prints it, per serving of 1 capsule. 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).
| Ingredient | Amount | % DV | Among products listing it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Thiamine Hydrochloride | 110 mg | 7,333% | Higher than 98% of 9,830 products listing thiamin (median 5 mg). |
| Riboflavin | 60 mg | 3,529% | Higher than 93% of 9,824 products listing riboflavin (median 4 mg). |
| Vitamin B3 | 175 mg | 875% | Higher than 95% of 12,413 products listing niacin (median 20 mg). 5 times the adult UL a day. |
