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 1,000 mcg of folic acid (filed by NIH under folate) is higher than 93% of the 7,022 folate products that print an amount; 183 list more.
The NIH database records one serving a day from the label's directions; its % Daily Values are for adults and children 4 or more years of age.
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.
