  • Its 780 mg of calcium is higher than 95% of the 17,831 calcium products that print an amount; 966 list more.
  • At 2 servings a day, the most its directions give, the label lists 760 mg of magnesium, 2.2 times the adult Tolerable Upper Intake Level.

The NIH database records 2 servings a day from the label's directions; its % Daily Values are for adults and children 4 or more years of age. The directions as printed are further down this page.
