How much of the compound is magnesium
Only part of each compound is magnesium. Here’s that share for each one. Some compounds come in several versions, for example with water in the crystals. Each version has its own share.
- Magnesium glycinate: 14.1 % magnesiumThis name covers more than one version, and the brand’s product page doesn’t say which. We use our standard one.

Do the figures agree?
stated 180 mg vs our maths 184.7 mgdifference -2.5 % (band ±15 %)adds up
Yes. The brand’s product page gives 1,310 mg of compound and 180 mg of magnesium per serve. Our maths: 1,310 mg × 0.141 = about 184.7 mg. That’s within 15 % of the stated figure. Why it matters to you: the cost per 100 mg rests on figures that agree. It isn’t a lab test of what’s inside, but it’s the check a label can pass.
Third-party testing
no testing claim found
No testing claim or certificate on the brand’s product page. That’s true of most products here, and it isn’t a mark against this one. If batch testing matters to you, ask the brand.
Our note: The product page makes no testing claim. Its HASTA (Human and Supplement Testing Australia) results page and certificate page (opened 27 Oct 2026) list whey protein, creatine and others, not these capsules.
Prices, and what the magnesium costs
Prices are the recommended retail price (RRP), or the regular shelf price where no RRP is shown. Sale and member prices aren’t used, so you may pay less.

Rows marked “Earlier observation (price type not recorded)” were seen up to 27 Oct 2026, before we switched to RRP. Some were sale prices. They stay here, greyed, as history, and no figure uses them.

The Bulk Nutrients page calls it a ‘Formulated Supplementary Sports Food’, a food, not a listed medicine, so no AUST L number applies. Its panel gives the figures per 2-capsule serve.
