eXplicit Supplements Magnesium Glycinate 425 mg: 213 mg of magnesium per capsule, 2 capsules a day
213 mg of magnesium per capsule takes 1,507–1,796 mg of glycinate; size 000 holds about 1,100 mg (model). Inside: salt weight, capsule size.
Estimated salt mass versus assumed capsule capacity: eXplicit Supplements Magnesium Glycinate 425 mg implies 1,507–1,796 mg of magnesium glycinate per capsule from 425 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 73 glycinate labels in this registry have a matched price. NIH DSLD 310042, label dated 2024-04-23.

Mass: 1,507–1,796 mg per capsule · Price: none matched · % DV: 100% vs 101%
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: eXplicit Supplements Magnesium Glycinate 425 mg implies 1,507–1,796 mg of magnesium glycinate in each capsule to deliver 425 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.
computed with assumption| Measure | Value |
|---|---|
| Elemental magnesium per serving | 425 mg |
| Units per serving | 2 |
| Magnesium glycinate per serving | 3,014–3,593 mg |
| Magnesium glycinate per capsule | 1,507–1,796 mg |
| Capsule capacity 0 · 00 · 000 | 545 · 730 · 1,100 mg |
| Verdict | Exceeds size 000 |
The filed salt can have more than one hydration state (bisglycinate; chelate hydration varies by supplier), so the compound mass is a range.

How much elemental magnesium is actually in this label's filed magnesium lines?
eXplicit Supplements Magnesium Glycinate 425 mg files 1 magnesium line in NIH DSLD 310042; the selected primary line declares 425 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 glycinate claim hold up, or could the magnesium come from another source?
For this declaration to fit one size 000 capsule, at least 35% 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%.
