Highly bioavailable magnesium chelate for sensitive individuals
Magnesium glycinate is a highly bioavailable magnesium chelate, which supports the metabolism and utilization of carbohydrates, amino acids and fats for energy.
Magnesium glycinate helps activate enzymes for physiological functions including cardiac health.‡
Magnesium benefit cognitive and neuromuscular function‡
Helps with calcium metabolism and bone mineralization‡
Magnesium Benefits
Magnesium activates the enzymes necessary for a number of physiological functions, including neuromuscular contractions, cardiac function, and the regulation of the acid-alkaline balance in the body.

Made with high-quality vegan ingredients backed by verifiable science
Magnesium (glycinate) is less likely to cause loose stools than other forms of magnesium.‡
Magnesium Scientific Studies
Magnesium activates the enzymes necessary for a number of physiological functions, including neuromuscular contractions, cardiac function, and the regulation of the acid-alkaline balance in the body. In a cross-sectional study involving 210 elderly individuals, optimal magnesium intake was associated with positive mood, lipid metabolism and lean body mass. Magnesium is necessary for the metabolism of carbohydrates, amino acids and fats, as well as energy production and the utilization of calcium, phosphorus, sodium and potassium.
In a 15-year study involving almost 5,000 young adults, higher intakes of magnesium were associated with healthy cardiovascular function and glucose utilization.
Another large cross-sectional study found that magnesium intake was positively associated with bone mineral density in certain subgroups.
This vital mineral also helps utilize some vitamins, including vitamin B6, vitamin C and vitamin E. Magnesium (glycinate) is less likely to cause loose stools than other forms of magnesium.17‡
Suggested Use
As a dietary supplement, take 1-4 capsules daily. Consume with food.
FAQ
-
Basically this type of magnesium is the combination of the amino acid glycine & magnesium. It is generally well tolerated compared to some other forms of magnesium which are often associated with gut symptoms and loose bowel movements

Magnesium is an essential mineral that plays a number of important roles in the body. It helps regulate blood sugar levels, promote healthy muscle and nerve function, and support a healthy immune system. Magnesium can also help to reduce stress and anxiety, improve sleep quality and prevent bone loss. Magnesium is involved in over 300 biochemical reactions in the body, so it’s important to get enough of this vital nutrient from your diet or through taking supplements. Good sources of magnesium include dark leafy greens, nuts and seeds, legumes, fish and whole grains. Taking a magnesium supplement may be beneficial for some people who are unable to get enough from their diets alone.
