What the declared salt would weigh
BulkSupplements.com Magnesium Gluconate 500 mg declares 80 mg of elemental magnesium per serving in NIH DSLD 294870, requiring 1,365.19 mg of magnesium gluconate under the salt model calculated 2026-09-13.
| Step | Value | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Declared elemental magnesium | 80 mg per serving | observed · label 2023-07-18 |
| Resolved salt | Magnesium gluconate · full-record | computed · name resolved from filed text |
| Reference formula | Mg(C₆H₁₁O₇)₂; 414.6 g/mol | computed · chemical reference |
| Elemental fraction | 5.86% by mass | computed |
| Compound mass per serving | 1,365.19 mg = 80 mg ÷ elemental fraction | computed |
| Compound mass per discrete unit | 455.06 mg | computed |
At powder density 0.6–0.8 g/mL, 455 mg of powder fits a size 0 capsule (holds about 545 mg).
The verdict uses the most favourable reading for the product — the smallest compound mass the label allows. It excludes the shell and other ingredients; their unreported masses are not added as guesses.
Size 0 holds about 545 mg, size 00 about 730 mg, and size 000 about 1,100 mg at powder density 0.6–0.8 g/mL. These are model inputs, not measurements of this product's capsule. Read the mass-budget method.

Magnesium lines as filed
BulkSupplements.com Magnesium Gluconate 500 mg retains 1 magnesium-related rows in NIH DSLD 294870, including 1 rows selected for the primary serving, from label 2023-07-18, examined 2026-09-13.
| Filed amount | Serving order | Filed salt / notes | Calculation role |
|---|---|---|---|
| 80 mg | 1 | Salt not identified in this row as of 2026-09-13 | Selected primary serving |
The elemental amount comes from the selected magnesium line. A salt named under another nutrient does not make that nutrient's quantity an elemental magnesium value. Distinct unresolved primary amounts remain ambiguous; they are not added together.
Package arithmetic · observed inputs, computed totals
What the package works out to
BulkSupplements.com Magnesium Gluconate 500 mg works out to 100 days per package at the label's own serving and filed frequency of 1 servings per day, according to label 2023-07-18, calculated 2026-09-13.
| Net contents as filed | 300 Capsule(s) |
|---|---|
| Discrete units in the package | 300 |
| Serving size as filed | 3 Capsule(s) |
| Units per serving | 3 |
| Servings per package | 100 |
| Daily servings in the label instructions | 1 |
| Days per package at the label's own serving | 100 days |
Days = filed servings per container ÷ filed servings per day. If the label gives a frequency range, the largest frequency gives the shortest duration. Cost per serving = observed item price ÷ filed servings; cost per label-day multiplies this by the filed frequency. This follows the label's own instructions; it is package arithmetic, not intake advice.
Percent daily value · observed and computed
The label's percent daily value, recomputed
BulkSupplements.com Magnesium Gluconate 500 mg files 1 magnesium percent-daily-value entries in NIH DSLD 294870; the check below applies the group-specific references in 21 CFR 101.9 to its 80 mg primary serving, calculated 2026-09-13.
| Group as filed | Declared | Reference | Recomputed | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Adults and children 4 or more years of age | 19% | 420 mg | 19% | 0 percentage points |
Percent daily value = declared elemental mg ÷ the group's reference mg × 100, rounded to an integer. The adult and age-four-plus reference is 420 mg. Historical labels can use earlier references; a difference does not establish a filing error. Full-record entries may cover multiple serving sizes, so this table identifies the primary-serving basis explicitly. Group references and interpretation.
