Solaray Magnesium Asporotate 400 mg

Solaray Magnesium Asporotate 400 mg declares 400 mg of elemental magnesium per serving as orotate, which would require 2,751 mg of the salt in each unit — more than the 1,100 mg a size 000 capsule holds; NIH DSLD 338471, label dated 2025-09-25, calculation 2026-09-13.

At powder density 0.6–0.8 g/mL, 2,751 mg of powder exceeds every standard capsule size — the largest, 000, holds about 1,100 mg.

If the declared salt were the sole source of magnesium here, each capsule would need 2,751 mg of powder, which no standard capsule holds. So the label does not establish orotate as the only source. A blend with a denser salt or a non-standard capsule could reconcile it. This is a statement about the label's arithmetic, not about what is in the bottle.

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

Solaray Magnesium Asporotate 400 mg retains 1 magnesium-related rows in NIH DSLD 338471, including 1 rows selected for the primary serving, from label 2025-09-25, examined 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.

What the package works out to

Solaray Magnesium Asporotate 400 mg works out to 60 days per package at the label's own serving and filed frequency of 1 servings per day, according to label 2025-09-25, calculated 2026-09-13.

Days per package at the label's own serving60 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

Solaray Magnesium Asporotate 400 mg files 1 magnesium percent-daily-value entries in NIH DSLD 338471; the check below applies the group-specific references in 21 CFR 101.9 to its 400 mg primary serving, calculated 2026-09-13.

Declared values and current-reference arithmetic
Group as filedDeclaredReferenceRecomputedDifference
Adults and children 4 or more years of age95%420 mg95%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.
