Product analysis

58 out of 100

Magnesium Glycinate Chelate targets magnesium intake in a single-mineral formula. Its buffered mixture includes oxide in undisclosed proportions, limiting the appeal of the glycinate description.

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

Nutrient Quality36

Glycinate is combined with less readily absorbed magnesium oxide. The unknown shares make it hard to judge how much of the favorable form is supplied.

Ingredient Transparency100

The magnesium amount and buffered source are identified. Those details help track intake, although they do not reveal the proportions within the mixture.

Value For Money30

The buffered mixture offers limited value for its combination of forms. Unclear proportions make it harder to justify the cost from the glycinate component alone.

Customer Satisfaction77

Ratings suggest very high satisfaction across several hundred customer opinions. They do not establish absorption, tolerance or health outcomes.

Product Focus66

Magnesium is the sole active mineral, making its nutritional purpose clear. Its many possible uses still depend on whether extra magnesium is needed.
