What is in Parotid-Lyph?
Each row as the label prints it, per serving of 1 tablet. 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Calciumas Calcium LactateCalcium (Form: as Calcium Lactate) | 20 mg | 2% | 91% of 17,831 products listing calcium give more (median 115 mg). |
| Parotidas Bovine | 200 mg | Higher than 95% of 43 products listing parotid (median 2 mg). |

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:
- 91% of the 17,831 products that print an amount of calcium list more than its 20 mg of calcium (median 115 mg).
- Its 200 mg of parotid is higher than 95% of the 43 parotid products that print an amount.
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.
