Broken bottle
By FH-NYC
The bottle was well wrapped in bubble wrap, but is smashed and had zillion small bits of glass underneath the wrapping. It might have been broken before mailing. I should have returned it. Won't buy again, better off going to the store, and pay a bit more.

The othe reviewer did NOT write a review.
By Andrew P.
Based on the other reviewer, let's look at the famous clinical studies done on Magnesium.

To save money, many vitamin companies started using Magnesium Oxide in their formulas. Heck, it was the same thing, right? Much cheaper, and everyone was happy. That was until the studies in clinical trials showed that almost no (that's nil, notta, siltch) Magnesium Oxide was absorbed into the body. Only Magnesium Citrate was actually absorbed in high amounts. But, to this day, if you look at the labels of Calcium/Magnesium supplements, you'll notice that the cheaper brands all contain the Oxide - more expensive brands contain the Citrate.

What's this say? If you want cheaper vitamins, chances are you will be getting supplements that will do nothing for you, or in some cases actually harm you. (The "Vitamin E from Photo Labs byproducts" controversy comes to mind here - still being used in major brand supplements btw).

It's a shame when someone just wants to post something so that they can bring their review status up a bit at the expense of a great product, which in my past experience, comes from a great company with the highest potency ingredients, and which sells the Citrate version of my Calcium/Magnesium supplements by the way.

What's that tell you about the vitamin companies who actually do the research? I came here to buy EPA Fish Oil. And when I saw this, I knew it was going to be good.

His review is not a review and should be deleted by Amazon. In fact, if Amazon reads this, they will know that reviews are for the products themselves. If you want to talk about other things such as prices, they have forums here for that purpose. But that wouldn't count towards a 'review post' and put someone in the Top 100 here, would it?

According to the other reviewer, you could save oh... maybe 3 bucks buying a cheaper product. Magnesium Oxide anyone?
