Average for similar products
73.2 / 100

A reasonable calcium contribution comes with a more modest magnesium amount, and the three-tablet daily serving may be burdensome for some buyers.

Scoring criteria
  • Quantity

    75 / 100

    The serving supplies 610 mg calcium, a useful supplemental amount, but its 110 mg magnesium contribution is modest for a combined calcium-magnesium formula.

  • Form

    75 / 100

    The calcium sources include hydroxyapatite and dicalcium phosphate, while magnesium is supplied in several forms including bisglycinate and citrate; these are usable forms without a clear overall comparative advantage.

  • Convenience

    70 / 100

    The label directs three tablets once daily, with 60 servings in the 180-tablet container.

  • Label accuracy

    100 / 100

    The listed serving amounts and directions are internally consistent, with no established label contradiction.

  • Formula balance

    75 / 100

    The formula combines relevant bone-support nutrients without an established compatibility problem, but no particular formulation advantage is demonstrated.

  • Purity

    75 / 100

    No product-specific purity testing or contaminant-control evidence is provided, so purity remains at the ordinary unresolved mark.

  • Cofactors

    50 / 100

    The separately quantified 5 mcg vitamin D is a modest, relevant supporting amount for a bone-support formula, though its added benefit at this dose is uncertain.
