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 elemental magnesium is actually in this label's filed magnesium lines?
Sundown Naturals Triple Magnesium 500 mg files 1 magnesium line in NIH DSLD 56740; the selected primary line declares 500 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 3 magnesium forms (aspartate, citrate, oxide); 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 aspartate | 7.5–15.6% | named on label |
| Magnesium citrate | 11.3–16.2% | named on label |
| Magnesium oxide | 60.3% | 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.
