Nature's Answer Liquid Magnesium Malate and Glycinate: 200 mg of magnesium per 30 ml, 16 servings
200 mg of magnesium in each 30 ml, about 16 servings per 16 fl. Oz. From glycinate + malate; no US price matched (Nov 2). Inside: label lines, ingredients.
Nature's Answer Liquid Magnesium Malate and Glycinate declares 200 mg of elemental magnesium from an amino acid chelate. "Amino acid chelate" names a class of compounds rather than one defined substance, so no elemental fraction exists and the compound mass cannot be computed from the label. No US retail price matched as of 2026-11-02. NIH DSLD 264045, label dated 2022-06-16.

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.

How much magnesium compound is in one serving?
The compound mass behind this label cannot be computed as of 2026-11-02: Single-salt capacity audit excluded as of 2026-10-17: buffered, complex, blend or asporotate wording leaves the composition unresolved.. The filed amounts are listed in the next block.

How much elemental magnesium is actually in this label's filed magnesium lines?
Nature's Answer Liquid Magnesium Malate and Glycinate files 1 magnesium line in NIH DSLD 264045; the selected primary line declares 200 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 magnesium claim hold up, or could the magnesium come from another source?
The label names 2 magnesium forms (glycinate, malate); a named blend does not establish how much magnesium each form contributes, so the resolved reading is the most favourable one, compared with oxide, the salt richest in magnesium at 60.3%.
computed with assumption| Form named on the label | Elemental fraction | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Magnesium glycinate | 11.8–14.1% | named on label |
| Magnesium malate | 12.6–15.5% | named on label |

Is this a good price for the elemental magnesium I'm actually getting?
No US retail price is matched to this label as of 2026-11-02, and without a resolved salt there is no same-salt comparison.

What does "48% Daily Value" mean here, and does it recompute?
The label declares 48% Daily Value; 200 mg against the 420 mg reference in 21 CFR 101.9 recomputes to 48%, the same within one point.

| Formula re: Contains | Magnesium promotes energy, supports healthy skeletal and cardiovascular systems. Foods that supply magnesium include dark green leafy vegetables, beans, nuts, and whole refined grains. However due to soil depletion and poor eating habits, many people do not get enough magnesium. Magnesium Malate and Magnesium Glycinate are “gentle” forms of magnesium that are amino acid chelates. |
