# Supplement Facts Panel for Organ Supplements

Source: https://huntressorgansupplement.com/blog/supplement-facts-panel-for-organ-supplements/

The supplement facts panel is the least exciting part of the bottle and the only part that is required to tell the truth in a set format. Front labels can say almost anything soft. The panel has rules. Reading it top to bottom takes about a minute and settles most questions before money changes hands.

## Start with the serving, always

The first lines give the serving size and the servings per container, and every number below them is per serving, not per capsule and not per bottle. Six capsules as a serving means the weights in the panel describe six capsules. This is the same ground covered in [organ supplement serving size](/blog/organ-supplement-serving-size/), and skipping it is how two similar-looking labels end up describing very different daily amounts.

## Amounts and percent daily value

Next come the nutrients the maker chose to list, with an amount and a percent daily value. Organ labels often list vitamin A, B12 and iron, because liver carries those in real amounts. A percent over 100 is not automatically better; it just describes what is in the serving. The fuller walkthrough in [how to read an organ supplement label](/blog/how-to-read-an-organ-supplement-label/) puts the panel next to the ingredient list so the two can be checked against each other.

## Below the panel is where the organs live

The ingredient list names the actual organs and, on a good label, the weight of dried organ per serving, the figure explained in [dried organ weight on a label](/blog/dried-organ-weight-on-a-label/). Organs named one by one, with a total weight, is the transparent version. A single vague blend name with no amounts asks you to trust instead of read.

## One minute, three checks

Serving size first, then the dried organ weight, then whether the named organs match what the front of the bottle implies. If all three line up, the label has done its job and the rest is preference.

## FAQ

### What should I read first on a supplement facts panel?

The serving size and servings per container. Every amount below is per serving, so a six-capsule serving means the panel describes all six capsules together.

### What does percent daily value mean on an organ label?

It compares the amount in one serving to a standard daily reference. Over 100 percent describes the serving; it is not by itself a reason to choose a product.

### Where are the organs listed?

In the ingredient list below the panel. A clear label names each organ and gives the dried weight per serving rather than hiding behind a blend name.
