A practical calcium-magnesium supplement with useful amounts of both minerals and supporting vitamin D3, though the forms of its two main minerals are not specified.

Scoring criteria

  • Quantity

    100 / 100

    The daily serving provides 500 mg calcium and 250 mg magnesium, useful supplemental amounts for the stated bone-health role.

  • Form

    65 / 100

    The principal calcium and magnesium are identified only as complexes, so their chemical forms and relevant absorption or tolerability properties remain unresolved.

  • Convenience

    76.5 / 100

    The label directs two capsules daily, preferably divided between administrations.

  • Label accuracy

    100 / 100

    The declared serving amounts and nested complex amounts are presented consistently, with no evident contradiction.

  • Formula balance

    75 / 100

    The calcium-magnesium combination is an ordinary, plausible bone-health formula with no established compatibility problem at the labelled amounts.

  • Purity

    75 / 100

    No product-specific purity testing or concerning additive is established by the supplied information.

  • Cofactors

    50 / 100

    The 25 mcg vitamin D3 is a meaningful supporting amount for calcium metabolism, though added benefit from this combination is uncertain.
