VQ Verified Quality Magnesium supplement 120 mg: 120 mg of magnesium per capsule, 1–4 capsules a day – glycinate + malate
120 mg of magnesium per capsule; the label's 1–4 capsules a day give 120–480 mg. From glycinate + malate. Inside: label lines, ingredients.
VQ Verified Quality Magnesium (Glycinate/Malate) 120 mg declares 120 mg of elemental magnesium per 1–2 capsule(s); the magnesium salt is not resolved from the filed record, Single-salt capacity audit excluded as of 2026-10-17: one salt with a defined elemental fraction is not resolved., as of 2026-11-02. No US retail price matched as of 2026-11-02. NIH DSLD 33947, label dated 2014-06-25.

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.
Recompute with your price
Enter the price you paid; the declared amount and servings of this label are prefilled, so the result is the cost per 100 mg of elemental magnesium for your bottle.
Same-salt comparison appears here.
Will 120 mg of magnesium actually fit in one capsule, or do I need more than one?
The compound mass behind this label cannot be computed as of 2026-11-02: Single-salt capacity audit excluded as of 2026-10-17: one salt with a defined elemental fraction is not resolved.. The filed amounts are listed in the next block. Lower bound, not a measurement: even if all 120 mg of magnesium per serving came from dimagnesium malate (27.2% magnesium), the richest of the 2 forms named for magnesium on the label, each of the 2 capsules (the most the serving allows) would need at least 221 mg of compound, so at this bound it needs at least a size 0 capsule (about 545 mg at 0.8 g/mL); the actual mix of forms may need more.

How much elemental magnesium is actually in this label's filed magnesium lines?
VQ Verified Quality Magnesium (Glycinate/Malate) 120 mg files 1 magnesium line in NIH DSLD 33947; the selected primary line declares 120 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.
