What is in Premier HCL?
Each row as the label prints it, per serving of 1 capsule. 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).

|---|---|---|---|
| Betaine Hydrochloride | 500 mg | Higher than 89% of 914 products listing betaine hydrochloride (median 50 mg). Per day at the most servings: 1,500 mg. |
