Product analysis
Calcium 1000 mg Magnesium 500 mg Zinc 25 mg with Vitamin D may help fill mineral gaps and support normal bones. The proportions of its mixed mineral sources are not disclosed, making the exact formula harder to compare.
AI assessment of the formula, label and price. How scoring works
Nutrient Quality62
Zinc and phosphorus have favorable forms, while calcium has more moderate form quality. The magnesium mix includes forms of different quality, with unknown proportions limiting confidence in absorption.
Ingredient Transparency80
All listed amounts and forms are disclosed, making the basic label easy to compare. The shares of the calcium, magnesium and zinc sources remain unspecified.
Value For Money41
Phosphorus offers good value and calcium offers moderate value. Magnesium and zinc are less competitive for the serving cost, so the combination has no clear value advantage.
Customer Satisfaction87
Customer ratings are very positive across thousands of reviews. The broad feedback reflects satisfaction without establishing better bone health or other benefits.
Product Focus57
The clearest purpose is filling mineral gaps to support normal bones and related functions. The many additional health links do not establish extra benefits when nutrient needs are met.

Phosphorus (Calcium Hydroxyapatite) · 500 mg OverallScore92
Zinc is a reasonable choice here. Each serving provides 25 mg, a substantial amount. Zinc Aspartate and Zinc Bisglycinate and Zinc Citrate and Zinc Picolinate are listed, but their proportions are unknown. The copper amount is unknown, so the zinc-to-copper balance cannot be established. At about $0.66 per serving for the whole product, it is a poor deal if buying it for zinc alone.
