Why do some nutrients show a %EC NRV over 100% on the label?
%EC NRV stands for EC Nutrient Reference Value, the standard reference amount used on food labels to show how much of a nutrient a serving provides relative to a typical daily requirement. Several B vitamins in this formula, including thiamin, riboflavin and vitamin B12, are included at levels well above 100% NRV as part of the product's stated high-potency formulation.
