What is in Cal/Mag Citrate?
Each row as the label prints it, per serving of 3 capsules. The capsule beside an amount places it among every product in the NIH database that lists the same ingredient: the bar is the middle half of their amounts, the line in it the median, the whiskers the 10th and 90th percentiles; the green tick is the FDA Daily Value and the red dashed tick the adult upper limit (IOM).
| Ingredient | Amount | % DV | Among products listing it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Calcium CitrateCalcium (Form: as Calcium Citrate/Complex) | 500 mg | 50% | The label names the compound (Calcium Citrate); its amount is likely the compound's weight, not the calcium it holds, so it is not placed among other products. |
| Magnesiumas Magnesium Citrate/ComplexMagnesium (Form: as Magnesium Citrate/Complex) | 250 mg | 63% | Higher than 83% of 14,003 products listing magnesium (median 86 mg). |
| Boronas Boron CitrateBoron (Form: as Boron Citrate) | 3 mg | Higher than 78% of 3,339 products listing boron (median 1 mg). |
