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:
- At 4 servings a day, the most its directions give, the label lists 96,000 mcg of iodine, 87.3 times the adult Tolerable Upper Intake Level.
The NIH database records 1 to 4 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.
