BioCare magnesium labels
BioCare files 4 on-market magnesium labels, and 2 of the 2 audited declare more of the named salt than a standard capsule can hold.
Mass budget · computed
What BioCare's declared salts weigh
A Supplement Facts panel declares the element; the salt carrying it is heavier. Dividing each label's declared magnesium by its salt's elemental fraction gives the powder mass the serving must contain — and whether that fits a capsule.
| Capsule labels audited | 2 |
|---|---|
| Fit a size 0 or 00 capsule | 0 |
| Require the largest standard size, 000 | 0 |
| Exceed every standard capsule | 2 |

Gaps in the record for BioCare
- 2 of 4 labels do not name the magnesium salt in the filed record, so no compound mass can be computed for them.
- 4 of 4 labels have no US retail listing matched as of 2026-09-13. That is a matching gap on our side, not evidence of unavailability.

The metric
What EC100 measures
EC100 = container price ÷ (elemental mg per serving × servings per container ÷ 100)
It normalizes the declared elemental amount to a 100 mg unit. It does not score ingredients, quality, or outcomes.
