Magnesium lines as filed
Vital Nutrients Calcium/Magnesium (Citrate/Malate Formula) retains 1 magnesium-related rows in NIH DSLD 304961, including 1 rows selected for the primary serving, from label 2024-01-24, examined 2026-09-13.
| Filed amount | Serving order | Filed salt / notes | Calculation role |
|---|---|---|---|
| 160 mg | 1 | citrate, malate 70% dimagnesium malate and 30% magnesium citrate | 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.
Package arithmetic · observed inputs, computed totals
What the package works out to
Vital Nutrients Calcium/Magnesium (Citrate/Malate Formula) works out to 12.5–25 days per package at the label's own serving and filed frequency of 2–4 servings per day, according to label 2024-01-24, calculated 2026-09-13.
| Net contents as filed | 100 Vegetarian Capsule(s) |
|---|---|
| Discrete units in the package | 100 |
| Serving size as filed | 2 Vegetarian Capsule(s) |
| Units per serving | 2 |
| Servings per package | 50 |
| Daily servings in the label instructions | 2–4 |
| Days per package at the label's own serving | 12.5–25 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
Vital Nutrients Calcium/Magnesium (Citrate/Malate Formula) files 1 magnesium percent-daily-value entries in NIH DSLD 304961; the check below applies the group-specific references in 21 CFR 101.9 to its 160 mg primary serving, calculated 2026-09-13.
| Group as filed | Declared | Reference | Recomputed | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Adults and children 4 or more years of age | 38% | 420 mg | 38% | 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.
