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:

  • Its 3,000 mcg of biotin is higher than 91% of the 9,447 biotin products that print an amount; 713 list more.
  • 88% of the 519 products that print an amount of horsetail list more than its 3 mg of horsetail (median 67 mg).

The NIH database records one serving 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.
