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 / 100

    The 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 / 100

    Calcium carbonate is identifiable, but the principal magnesium form is not clearly identified, leaving its absorption and tolerability properties unresolved.

  • Convenience

    85 / 100

    The label directs two tablets daily, with optional division into separate doses, and lists 250 tablets.

  • Label accuracy

    25 / 100

    The panel lists incompatible apparent amounts for calcium and magnesium without clearly distinguishing elemental from compound quantities.

  • Formula balance

    75 / 100

    Both minerals are meaningfully represented and the label permits divided dosing, with no established formulation incompatibility evident from the supplied information.

  • Purity

    75 / 100

    The label discloses conventional tablet excipients and provides no product-specific evidence of contamination or unusual additive concerns.

  • Cofactors

    0 / 100

    Both listed minerals are co-primary ingredients rather than supporting cofactors.
