  • The NSF certification date, which the listing doesn't show
  • How much of the 300 mg comes from glycinate and how much from oxide
  • Where the magnesium is made
  • Which NSF entry a given bottle's lot number sits in, and the certification date, which neither entry shows
  • Whether the page's retail price applies to every buyer, since it asks you to log in
  • Whether an opened bottle qualifies for return
  • Who makes the magnesium glycinate and where it comes from
  • Klean's bottle size and net weight
  • Whether Klean's current directions call for a meal, since only its 2020 data sheet says so
  • Whether the page's description means 120 mg of magnesium or of the glycinate compound, since the label panel says magnesium
