Evlution Nutrition Magnesium Citrate 400 mg: 200 mg of magnesium per capsule, 2 capsules a day

200 mg of magnesium per capsule takes 1,238–1,770 mg of citrate; size 000 holds about 1,100 mg (model). Inside: salt weight, capsule size.

Estimated salt mass versus assumed capsule capacity: Evlution Nutrition Magnesium Citrate 400 mg implies 1,238–1,770 mg of magnesium citrate per capsule from 400 mg elemental magnesium per serving, above the assumed 1,100 mg capacity of size 000 at powder density 0.8 g/mL, the top of the usual 0.6–0.8 range, calculated 2026-11-02. No US retail price matched as of 2026-11-02; 17 of the 135 citrate labels in this registry have a matched price. NIH DSLD 302128, label dated 2024-01-24.

Elemental: The magnesium itself; the rest of the compound weight is the partner molecule.

Compound: The whole salt, such as magnesium glycinate, that must physically fit in the capsule.

Size 000: The largest standard capsule, about 1,100 mg of powder at 0.8 g/mL, the top of the usual 0.6–0.8 range; size 00 holds about 730 mg and size 0 about 545 mg.

Estimated salt mass versus assumed capsule capacity

Estimated salt mass versus assumed capsule capacity: Evlution Nutrition Magnesium Citrate 400 mg implies 1,238–1,770 mg of magnesium citrate in each capsule to deliver 400 mg of elemental magnesium, against 1,100 mg in the largest standard capsule (size 000) at powder density 0.8 g/mL, the top of the usual 0.6–0.8 range. Verdict: exceeds size 000, read at the most favourable hydration and the most units per serving.

The filed salt can have more than one hydration state (trimagnesium dicitrate 16.2%; dibasic and hydrated forms as low as 11.3%), so the compound mass is a range.

How much elemental magnesium is actually in this label's filed magnesium lines?

Evlution Nutrition Magnesium Citrate 400 mg files 1 magnesium line in NIH DSLD 302128; the selected primary line declares 400 mg of elemental magnesium per serving, against 0 other rows excluded from the primary amount. A salt named under another nutrient does not turn that nutrient's quantity into elemental magnesium.

Does this label's citrate claim hold up, or could the magnesium come from another source?

For this declaration to fit one size 000 capsule, at least 15% of the magnesium would have to come from a salt richer in magnesium, such as magnesium oxide (computed at powder density 0.8 g/mL, the top of the usual 0.6–0.8 range), compared with oxide, the salt richest in magnesium at 60.3%.
