What the Label Data Shows

According to NIH DSLD label rows, Spirulina sits in the top 17% of products with a countable formula by declared ingredient count.

With 19 ingredients on the label, Spirulina is one of the more extensive non-nutrient/non-botanical supplement formulas from Herbal Hills in the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD), sold in tablet or pill form. These ingredients span 10 nutrient categories, mineral, other, vitamin, complex carbohydrate, and 6 more, reflecting a multi-component formula rather than a single-nutrient product.

Across a broader 19-ingredient formula, 19 of 19 have no percentage Daily Value reported in this DSLD source record, so the available data cannot establish their FDA reference status.

Market status matters for supplement research. This product is currently listed as on-market in the DSLD, with its label first entered into the database on 2012-12-21. This product is actively distributed in the U.S. right now. As with every DSLD entry, that listing reflects the manufacturer's self-declared label, not an independent safety or efficacy review.

About the DSLD database

The DSLD is a label database, not an FDA approval list, under the 1994 DSHEA framework, dietary supplements do not require pre-market approval, and label information reflects what manufacturers self-declare rather than independent laboratory verification. This page presents factual label data for reference only and is not medical advice; consult a licensed healthcare provider before making decisions about any supplement.
