51 out of 100

Magnesium Plus Raspberry Lemonade Flavor can help fill a magnesium gap to support normal muscle function, energy use and bone maintenance. The unidentified blend makes it harder to know everything included in each serving.

AI assessment of the formula, label and price. How scoring works

Nutrient Quality43

The magnesium carbonate form offers limited absorption potential, while the folate and potassium forms are more favorable. The quality of several other preparations remains uncertain, so the combination does not establish better absorption as a whole.

Ingredient Transparency72

Amounts and most ingredient forms are listed, making much of the formula easy to check. The blend components are not identified, so its total amount does not tell you what it contains.

Value For Money42

The serving price offers favorable value for potassium but weaker value for the magnesium form. Value for many of the additional ingredients remains uncertain, limiting confidence in the combined purchase.

Customer Satisfaction76

Customers generally rate the product positively, with a review pool of hundreds. These ratings describe satisfaction rather than proving effectiveness or safety.

Product Focus26

Magnesium supplies the clearest reason to choose the formula, particularly for filling a dietary gap. The many added ingredients and unidentified blend make its wider health aims harder to judge.

Magnesium supplies a substantial nutrient contribution that can help fill a dietary gap. Its connection to general health is nutritional availability, without establishing extra benefit when intake is adequate. The declared form does not establish superior outcomes, and a serving amount is not a measure of absorption. Vitamin C and B6 add nutrient availability.

Magnesium contributes to vascular function, although findings for arterial stiffness and blood pressure are inconsistent and more plausible with low magnesium status or elevated blood pressure. Potassium may help blood pressure when habitual intake is low; the supplied serving remains below the exposures in the cited trials. The main connection is mineral support for vascular tone, with limited support for broader cardiovascular effects.

How this product is rated for Cardiovascular Support

Ingredient fit53

The formula has a mineral contribution to vascular support alongside ingredients serving other purposes.
Goal fit
Relevant nutrients share the formula with other actives, so its focus extends beyond cardiovascular support.
Dose adequacy
Magnesium and potassium contribute at disclosed amounts, although potassium remains below the daily exposures in the supplied trials.

Pathways58

Vascular tone and sodium balance are the strongest area. The covered mechanisms do not establish prevention of cardiovascular events.
Depth
Vascular tone and sodium balance are the strongest area.
Breadth
Only vascular tone meets the saved coverage threshold; antioxidant-related coverage remains limited.

Evidence86

Potassium leads the saved evidence findings, but its blood-pressure benefit depends partly on low habitual intake.

The credited ingredients have no unmet partner requirement, and the supplied checks found no matched conflict. Their counted amounts meet the saved minimum contribution threshold.
Partner coverage
No credited ingredient has an unmet partner requirement; this does not establish added benefit from combining them.

Magnesium and potassium relate to blood-vessel tone and blood-pressure regulation. Magnesium's blood-pressure effects are small and inconsistent, while potassium benefit depends on baseline intake and blood pressure; this serving does not reproduce the larger potassium exposures used in the supplied trials. The B-vitamin and vitamin D amounts are below saved contribution thresholds.

Magnesium contributes to normal bone mineral metabolism and can fill low dietary intake, without established routine fracture prevention. Vitamin D supports calcium absorption and deficiency-related mineralization; larger amounts do not establish extra fracture protection in adults with adequate status. Vitamin C and copper support normal collagen formation; correcting low intake is distinct from extra bone benefit when intake is adequate.

Magnesium · 300 mg

Magnesium is the ingredient with the clearest supplied connection to sleep, although human findings show small or uncertain improvements, mainly in people reporting poor sleep or older adults with insomnia. This product provides 300 mg per serving. The carbonate form does not establish the same sleep effects as the bisglycinate preparation studied in one trial.

How this product is rated for Sleep Support

Ingredient fit52

Magnesium provides the main sleep connection within a broader formula.
Goal fit
Many additional active ingredients reduce the formula's focus on sleep.
Dose adequacy
The 300 mg magnesium serving receives substantial amount recognition; the other assessed nutrients are below the inclusion threshold.

Pathways47

The saved findings center on magnesium's calming route, with limited breadth.
Depth
Magnesium provides a substantial but incomplete connection to calming.
Breadth
Only the calming route reaches substantial coverage.

Evidence98

Magnesium has direct human sleep evidence, but certainty is limited and the observed benefit in a recent trial was small.
Evidence strength
Magnesium is the strongest supported ingredient recognized here; its sleep findings remain modest and population-dependent.
Studied preparation
The saved findings recognize the preparations, but do not establish that every magnesium salt has identical sleep effects.

Formulation logic100

No required partners are missing, and no listed sleep conflicts were triggered.
Partner coverage
The credited ingredients do not depend on missing partners.
Conflicts
The checked stimulant ingredients are absent, so no sleep conflict was triggered.

Only magnesium meets the saved inclusion threshold; zinc, vitamin B6 and vitamin D do not.
