What is in SerotoninHelp?
Each row as the label prints it, per serving of 2 capsules. 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5-Htpas Griffonia Seed Extract | 120 mg | Higher than 82% of 676 products listing 5-HTP (median 100 mg). Per day at the most servings: 240 mg. | |
| Vitamin Cas Ascorbic Acid | 80 mg | 89%* | 61% of 18,583 products listing vitamin C give more (median 100 mg). Per day at the most servings: 160 mg. |
| Magnesiumas Magnesium L-Threonate | 80 mg | 19%* | 51% of 14,003 products listing magnesium give more (median 86 mg). Per day at the most servings: 160 mg. |
| Zincas Zinc Citrate | 80 mg | 727%* | This amount is far outside what other labels list for zinc, or disagrees with the label's own %DV: possibly a unit or transcription slip in the database. Check the label image on DSLD. |
| Vitamin B6as Pyridoxal 5-Phosphate | 40 mg | 2,353%* | Higher than 85% of 15,277 products listing vitamin B6 (median 6 mg). Per day at the most servings: 80 mg. |
* % Daily Value computed from the printed amount and the FDA Daily Value (21 CFR 101.9); the label prints none for that row.
