Why take Magnesium Glycinate?
Let's think of nutrients as tools that your body uses to accomplish different tasks. And like tools, different nutrients are needed to accomplish different things. Your body can even make use of the same nutrient (in this case, magnesium) in different ways, depending on the job. So what makes magnesium glycinate so special? This form of magnesium is bound to a pair of glycine amino acids (which is why it's technically called magnesium bisglycinate). This results in an absorbable form of magnesium your body can easily make use of.

Product Details
Magnesium and glycine: A well absorbed form
Magnesium glycinate, sometimes referred to as magnesium bisglycinate, is a form of magnesium complexed with two glycine amino acids, which provides a well absorbed form of magnesium. How? When combined with the amino acid glycine, it makes a type of magnesium that can be easily absorbed by the body.
It is important to maintain adequate magnesium status, and a dietary magnesium supplement taken consistently is an easy way to support healthy magnesium levels in the body. Individual factors such as concentration of elemental magnesium per dose and gastrointestinal tolerance can help guide the best form of magnesium to choose. There are two primary advantages for magnesium glycinate:
Well absorbed: Magnesium glycinate is a form of magnesium that is well absorbed by the body.
Easy on the GI tract: magnesium glycinate contains a lower concentration of elemental magnesium per dose, which can help alleviate occasional gastrointestinal discomfort that some people experience when taking magnesium.
Magnesium and whole-body health
Magnesium is involved in more than 600 biochemical reactions, including bone, heart, muscle and nerve health.
Bone health: Magnesium is necessary for maintaining strong bones and teeth. It helps regulate calcium levels in the body, which is important for healthy bone density.
Muscle and nerve function: Magnesium supports proper communication between nerve and muscle cells, promoting overall nervous system function and supporting healthy muscle contractions.
Heart health: Magnesium helps maintain a steady heartbeat and supports already healthy blood pressure levels. It also contributes to vascular and endothelial function.
