Is that a lot?

Every amount on this label with a position sits within the middle 80% of the products that list the same ingredient; 1 ingredient sits inside a blend, so their amounts cannot be compared.

The NIH database records 1 to 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.

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.

Sources: amounts from the DSLD label; Daily Values from 21 CFR 101.9(c)(8)(iv); adult upper limits from the Institute of Medicine's DRI summary tables (2011). How positions are computed.

Which products have the closest formulas?

What does the label say about taking it?

Quoted from the label as DSLD transcribed it: the maker's words, including any claim about what the product does, which the FDA has not evaluated and PlainVitamins does not endorse.

Directions
Simple to use - Swallow tablets or put clay powder in a glass of warm water. The warmer water allows the clay to mix without clumping - just add a little cooler water after stirring, then drink. Do not use metal utensils since this clay binds to heavy metals - wooden chopstick works well. You can also dip a wet toothbrush into moist clay after flossing - and brush teeth - unfriendly bacteria in the gumline will attach to the clay and pocket depth often reduces.
Dosages: If you are sensitive, just start with less than the following suggestions. Powder - 1 tsp in am, 1 tsp in pm. Tablets -- 250 tablets last three to four weeks Average dosage is 5 to 6 tablets 2 times a day. One tsp of clay powder = 6 tablets.
How much to use is an individual choice. We personally use a half tsp. 1 to 2 times per day in 5 oz. or so of water. Do not use metal utensils. Let sit for a few minutes, stir, and drink. Best on an empty stomach, but not absolutely necessary. Use less if you are sensitive. Use less for children and pets, depending on their weight.
Warnings
Always check with your doctor first as this remedy is not to replace their advice.
As always, check with your doctor for the possibility of this clay binding to any medications you may be using.
