Impact
Highest effect
Phosphorus · 500 mgMagnesium · 500 mgCalcium · 1000 mg
Calcium and magnesium can fill dietary gaps supporting normal bone mineralization and metabolism. Phosphorus is a bone constituent whose replacement matters when intake or availability is deficient, without established added benefit above adequacy. The substantial calcium serving has an unmet partner requirement in the saved findings. These nutritional roles do not establish routine fracture prevention or a stronger effect from larger amounts.
How this product is rated for Bone Health
Ingredient fit85
Calcium is a key ingredient in the saved bone-related findings. The amounts provide uneven support.
Goal fit
Calcium gives the formula a focused bone-related connection, although the product has other linked uses.
Dose adequacy
The disclosed amounts provide uneven or partial support; unknown quantities limit their contributions without establishing ineffectiveness.
Pathways60
Coverage is strongest for bone mineral supply. The breadth finding includes bone mineral supply.
Depth
The strongest saved coverage concerns bone mineral supply; coverage does not establish a change in bone density or fracture risk.
Breadth
The routes meeting the breadth criterion are bone mineral supply. Other bone functions receive less or no coverage.
Evidence100
Calcium supports filling dietary gaps for normal mineralization; fracture results are mixed, and larger supplemental amounts do not establish added benefit.
