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:
- 94% of the 18,583 products that print an amount of vitamin C list more than its 12.5 mg of vitamin C (median 100 mg).
- over 99% of the 14,175 products that print an amount of vitamin D list more than its 0.625 mcg (25 IU) of vitamin D (median 15 mcg (600 IU)).
