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:
- 97% of the 264 products that print an amount of beta sitosterol list more than its 6 mg of beta-sitosterol (filed by NIH under beta sitosterol) (median 100 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.
