Checked against public sources on August 12, 2026 · LookCloser does not sell or recommend supplements.
Does the marketing hold up?
FDA recall appears in this brand's history. An exact-product recall is a direct signal. A different product from the same firm is company context, not a strike against this item.
Is the dose real?Panel read — dose not verified1 ingredient listed; no advertised amount we could confirm against them

Is it the real thing?✓Barcode matches outside records
Trouble on record?Brand history — not this product
“Couldn’t verify” means we looked and found no public proof — not a mark against the product. Most supplement claims cannot be independently verified by anyone, so grey is the normal state of this industry.

FDA recall appears in this brand's history
An exact-product recall is a direct signal. A different product from the same firm is company context, not a strike against this item.
Evidence and sources
This recall is not about the product on this page. Vitamin Shoppe recalled a different product on June 29, 2020. FDA has since closed that case. The recalled item was “The Vitamin Shoppe Calcium Citrate Plus Magnesium & Vitamin D.…”

Every ingredient shows its amount · 1 ingredients listed.
Every ingredient shows its real amount — nothing is hidden in a proprietary blend.
Evidence and sources
The panel gives a per-ingredient amount rather than hiding quantities inside a proprietary blend, so each one can be compared to published research.

The barcode identity checks out · 766536049837.
The barcode matches, so we are checking the right product rather than a look-alike.
Evidence and sources
Open Food Facts resolves 766536049837 to "Magnesium Glycinate Powder" (The Vitamin Shoppe) — consistent with this listing.

Research behind the findings
Dose and research context
We could not match an amount on this product to a studied range for the same ingredient, so these links are ingredient background rather than a measurement of this product.
Background reading
What the research says about these amounts
Not a score. Studies disagree with each other and change over time, so this sits beside the evidence rather than counting toward it — it is here so you can read the sources yourself.
The panel lists 250 mg of magnesium per serving. Studies we found used 200 mg–420 mg a day, so this sits inside that range.
0studied 200 mg–420 mg
Study ranges differ between trials and change as research changes. This is background reading, not a pass, a failure, or a recommendation.
