Claims are closed. The deadline was August 7, 2026, and new claims are no longer accepted. The settlement has preliminary approval only; the Court has scheduled a final approval hearing for October 15, 2026 and has not ruled on whether the settlement is fair, reasonable, and adequate. No payment date had been announced as of August 8, 2026, and payments cannot go out before the Court grants final approval. Anyone who filed in time should rely on the official settlement website and on communications tied to their own claim.
The claim window closed on August 7, 2026. Nothing else in the case has changed — there has been no ruling on final approval, no extension of the claim deadline, and no payment schedule. The next event on the docket is the final approval hearing set for October 15, 2026.
A Settlement Agreement has been reached in a class action lawsuit alleging that eSupplements, LLC d/b/a Nutricost (“Nutricost”) sold its Nutricost Magnesium Glycinate supplements marketed as 420 mg of magnesium “as magnesium glycinate” when, according to the plaintiffs, they were not. The case is captioned Cohen et al. v. eSupplements, LLC d/b/a Nutricost and is pending in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York.
To resolve the claims, Nutricost has agreed to create a non-reversionary Settlement Fund of $1,835,000. That fund pays valid claims along with attorneys' fees, costs, settlement administration costs, and any court-approved incentive awards. Nutricost denies any wrongdoing and denies that it violated any state or federal law; the Court has not ruled on the merits of the claims or Nutricost's defenses. Both sides agreed to settle to avoid the cost, risk, and delay of continued litigation.
The settlement received preliminary approval and the claim window ran until August 7, 2026. Filing required no receipt and no administrator-issued code to receive a base payment, but that window has now closed and new claims are not accepted.

The Court has preliminarily certified a Settlement Class consisting of all persons who, while residing in the United States, purchased Nutricost Magnesium Glycinate supplements in the 240-capsule or 120-capsule variant during the Class Period.
The Class Period runs from February 1, 2021 through June 8, 2026. The “Supplements” are the dietary supplements offered for sale by Nutricost as “Magnesium Glycinate” with “420 MG per serving” in the 240-capsule and 120-capsule variants. There is no requirement to have bought the product from any particular retailer.
The settlement pays in “Award Units.” Each Award Unit has an equal monetary value not to exceed $19.95. How many units you can claim depends on whether you have a Claim ID and PIN:
- With a valid Claim ID and PIN (printed on a mailed or emailed notice): you are entitled to one Award Unit for each Supplement you purchased, as reflected in the sales records in the parties' possession.
- Without a Claim ID and PIN: you are entitled to one Award Unit.
The exact value of an Award Unit is determined by dividing the Net Settlement Fund (the total fund minus settlement administration costs, the fee award, and incentive awards) by the total number of Supplements identified by valid claims. Because the fund is fixed, individual payment amounts depend on how many valid and timely claims are filed by all class members, so the final per-unit figure may be at or below the $19.95 cap.
The only way to receive a share of the Settlement Fund was to submit a claim. Claims were filed online through the official settlement website, or on a paper claim form mailed to the settlement administrator, JND Legal Administration. A notice with a Claim ID and PIN allowed a claimant to claim one unit per purchase; anyone without one could still file for one Award Unit.
Claims had to be submitted online or postmarked no later than August 7, 2026, and that deadline has passed. After valid claims are counted and the Court grants final approval, the administrator will distribute payments to claiming class members. Questions about an already-filed claim go through the official settlement website — OpenClassActions.com is an information site and cannot look up or update anyone's claim.
- Exclude yourself (opt out). To keep your right to sue Nutricost separately over these issues, a written request for exclusion had to be mailed to the settlement administrator, postmarked by August 7, 2026. That deadline has passed.
- Object. If you stay in the class but disagree with the settlement's terms, a written objection had to be filed with the Court and served on the administrator by August 7, 2026, and that deadline has passed.
- Did nothing. Class members who neither filed a claim nor opted out receive no payment and remain bound by the settlement, giving up the right to sue Nutricost over the claims in this case.
The Court will hold a Final Approval Hearing on October 15, 2026, at the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York in Central Islip, to decide whether the settlement is fair, reasonable, and adequate and to rule on requests for attorneys' fees and incentive awards. You are not required to attend the hearing to benefit from the settlement, and the date may be changed without further notice — check the official settlement website for updates.
Who qualifies for the Nutricost Magnesium Glycinate settlement?
Anyone who, while residing in the United States, purchased Nutricost Magnesium Glycinate supplements in the 240-capsule or 120-capsule variant during the Class Period of February 1, 2021 through June 8, 2026.
How much money can I get from the Nutricost settlement?
Each Award Unit has an equal value not to exceed $19.95. Class members who file with a valid Claim ID and PIN receive one Award Unit per supplement purchased as reflected in the parties' records; those who file without a Claim ID and PIN receive one Award Unit. The exact per-unit amount depends on the total number of valid claims.
Do I need proof of purchase to file a Nutricost claim?
No. You can submit a valid claim form without a Claim ID and PIN and still be entitled to one Award Unit. A Claim ID and PIN (printed on a mailed or emailed notice) are only needed if you want to claim one Award Unit for each supplement you purchased based on the parties' sales records.
What is the deadline to file a Nutricost Magnesium Glycinate claim?
The claim deadline was August 7, 2026, and it has passed — claims are no longer being accepted. That same date was the deadline to exclude yourself from or object to the settlement.
What did the Nutricost lawsuit allege?
The lawsuit alleged that eSupplements, LLC d/b/a Nutricost violated consumer protection statutes and breached warranties by marketing and selling its supplements as 420 mg of magnesium “as magnesium glycinate” when, the plaintiffs claim, they were not. Nutricost denies any wrongdoing and denies that it violated any state or federal law.
