Is that a lot?
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:
- Its 1,200 mg of N-acetyl-L-cysteine (filed by NIH under N-acetyl cysteine) (2 rows of the label added together) is higher than 98% of the 1,259 N-acetyl cysteine products that print an amount; 6 list more.
The Tolerable Upper Intake Level is the most of a nutrient per day, from food, water and supplements together, that is likely to pose no risk for almost all adults (Institute of Medicine, 2011). It does not apply under medical supervision. This page compares labels; it is not medical advice.
