What Is This Settlement About?
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.
Who Qualifies?
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.
How Much Can You Get?
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.
How Claims Were Filed
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.
Your Other Options
- 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.
