Product analysis
Calcium Magnesium Citrate Plus Vitamin D-3 Strawberry can help fill mineral and vitamin D gaps that matter for normal bone and muscle function.
AI assessment of the formula, label and price. How scoring works
Nutrient Quality74
Vitamin D3 and the citrate mineral forms have favorable quality profiles. These forms provide a sound basis for nutrient supply without establishing extra health benefits above adequate intake.
Ingredient Transparency85
The main nutrient amounts and forms are clearly stated. Some other form details remain unspecified, leaving a few parts of the label less complete.
Value For Money43
The calcium and magnesium offer moderate value when their forms are considered. Vitamin D is less competitively priced, so the combination does not stand out on cost.
Customer Satisfaction85
Customer ratings are very positive across a substantial review base. The feedback provides a broad picture of satisfaction without proving the wider health claims.
Product Focus63
Normal bone and mineral nutrition are the clearest reasons to consider the formula. The much wider range of linked goals includes effects that are limited, inconsistent or mainly relevant to low nutrient intake.
