Not a great choice for everyday use; it is highly formulated.

This is a supplement tablet rather than a minimally processed food. It contains industrial additives and processing agents, including hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, polyvinyl alcohol, cross-linked sodium carboxymethylcellulose, silicon dioxide, talc, and magnesium stearate. Maltodextrin is also present and is an industrially processed refined carbohydrate. These ingredients make the product ultra-processed under the stated NOVA criteria. Magnesium oxide, calcium carbonate, and pyridoxine hydrochloride are mineral or vitamin compounds and are not the primary reason for the classification.
