Gaps in the record for MegaFood
- 8 of 10 labels do not name the magnesium salt in the filed record, so no compound mass can be computed for them.
- 10 of 10 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.
