Why this scored 58/100
Species Nutrition V-Mineralyze is a chelated calcium and magnesium formula fortified with vitamin D3 and blueberry extract. Calcium and magnesium chelates (glycinate, bisglycinate) are legitimately better-absorbed forms than oxide or carbonate versions. Vitamin D3 is the appropriate form for supplementation. Calcium supplementation is somewhat controversial in current cardiovascular literature — some meta-analyses suggest supplemental calcium (as opposed to dietary calcium) may modestly raise cardiovascular event risk in certain populations, though the finding is not universally accepted. Most experts recommend calcium primarily from food sources with supplementation reserved for identified gaps. Magnesium and vitamin D supplementation have better evidence bases (gaps are common in both). Species Nutrition's blueberry extract addition is diffuse — a small polyphenol dose in a mineral formula is marketing decoration. Standard-tier essential-mineral formula with reasonable form choices; calcium supplementation warrants individualized consideration rather than default use.

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.
