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:
- 68% of the 68 products that print an amount of triterpene (unspecified) list more than its 1 mg of triterpene glycosides (filed by NIH under triterpene (unspecified)) (median 2 mg).
The NIH database records 3 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.
