Why this scored 75/100
Ortho Molecular Products' Mag Threonate uses licensed Magtein-format magnesium L-threonate — the only magnesium form shown in animal models to elevate brain magnesium concentration meaningfully (Slutsky 2010 Neuron — the anchor paper showing cognitive-memory improvement in aged rats via CSF Mg elevation), with follow-up human data on cognitive function in older adults (Liu 2016 J Alzheimers Dis). OMP is a legitimate practitioner-only brand with NSF-registered facility and per-lot COA availability. Formulation matches the studied 1500–2000 mg/day Magtein dose across capsules. Held below Elite because human RCT evidence remains limited (small trials, industry-linked), and this dose is stimulating for some people (evening use can disrupt sleep). Would move to Elite with additional independently-funded human trials at this dose.

Evidence & sources
The Vyvata score's Evidence dimension measures the quality of published RCT support for a product's active ingredients at the label dose. Our source hierarchy: double-blind RCTs in MEDLINE-indexed journals > single-blind RCTs > open-label trials > observational studies > mechanism papers > N=1 case studies (anecdotes). Predatory journals and manufacturer-authored studies without independent replication are weighted down.
Product-specific evidence citations for this item are embedded in the analysis text on the "Analysis" tab. For the full framework and evidence hierarchy, see the methodology page.
How to read the Evidence dimension
- 80–100: Multiple double-blind RCTs in indexed journals directly testing this product OR the exact ingredients at the exact dose.
- 60–79: Single double-blind RCT + supporting ingredient literature at the studied dose.
- 40–59: Open-label trials + ingredient literature; no product-specific double-blind evidence.
- 20–39: Ingredient literature only; no product-specific trials or trials in predatory venues.
- 0–19: No credible evidence base or unverifiable claims.

Why did Ortho Molecular Products Mag Threonate 60 Capsules score in the Verified tier?
Ortho Molecular Products' Mag Threonate uses licensed Magtein-format magnesium L-threonate — the only magnesium form shown in animal models to elevate brain magnesium concentration meaningfully (Slutsky 2010 Neuron — the anchor paper showing cognitive-memory improvement in aged rats via CSF Mg elevation), with follow-up human data on cognitive function in older adults (Liu 2016 J Alzheimers Dis). OMP is a legitimate practitioner-only brand with NSF-registered facility and per-lot COA availability. Formulation matches the studied 1500–2000 mg/day Magtein dose across capsules.

What are the strongest and weakest aspects of this product?
Strongest: Formulation at 82/100 (dose adequacy, bioavailability form, and ingredient redundancy) and Manufacturing at 78/100 (third-party testing, GMP compliance, and facility audit status).
