This jar provides substantial stated calcium and magnesium amounts, but conflicting amount lines and an unclear magnesium source make the formulation difficult to verify.
Scoring criteria
Quantity
75 / 100The stated 1 gram of calcium and 500 milligrams of magnesium would be substantial supplemental amounts, but conflicting indented amounts prevent full certainty about the actual doses.
Form
65 / 100Calcium carbonate is identifiable, but the principal magnesium form is not clearly identified, leaving its absorption and tolerability properties unresolved.
Convenience
85 / 100The label directs two tablets daily, with optional division into separate doses, and lists 250 tablets.
Label accuracy
25 / 100The panel lists incompatible apparent amounts for calcium and magnesium without clearly distinguishing elemental from compound quantities.
Formula balance
75 / 100Both minerals are meaningfully represented and the label permits divided dosing, with no established formulation incompatibility evident from the supplied information.
Purity
75 / 100The label discloses conventional tablet excipients and provides no product-specific evidence of contamination or unusual additive concerns.
Cofactors
0 / 100Both listed minerals are co-primary ingredients rather than supporting cofactors.
