How does Oyster Shell Calcium 500 mg compare?
Ingredients listed on each label, against the mineral category average of 6.5. Data from the NIH DSLD.
Oyster Shell Calcium 500 mg lists 7 ingredients fewer than 100% Casein Vanilla Cream. That is 10 above the mineral average.
What the Label Data Shows
With 16 ingredients on the label, Oyster Shell Calcium 500 mg is one of the more extensive mineral supplement formulas from Geri-Care in the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD), sold in tablet or pill form. These ingredients span 5 nutrient categories, other, mineral, complex carbohydrate, fiber, and 1 more, reflecting a multi-component formula rather than a single-nutrient product.
Across a broader 16-ingredient formula, 16 of 16 fall outside the FDA's Daily Value system altogether, expected for a broader formula -- the more ingredients a label lists, the more likely it accumulates botanicals, amino acids, or specialty compounds the FDA has never benchmarked.
Availability status shapes how this label record is best used. This product is currently listed as off-market in the DSLD, with its label first entered into the database on 2018-10-25. An off-market listing means production and distribution under this label have stopped, but the DSLD does not delete the entry, it stays on file for historical reference and formulation-history tracking.
About the DSLD database

This page presents factual label data for reference only and is not medical advice; consult a licensed healthcare provider before making decisions about any supplement.
