    The basics

    Magnesium glycinate, a highly bioavailable form of magnesium, is a dietary supplement designed to augment magnesium levels in the body. This mineral-amino acid compound plays a critical role in maintaining various bodily functions, including nerve and muscle relaxation, enzyme activity, and metabolic processes.

    The Science

    Magnesium glycinate is formed when magnesium ions bind to glycinate (glycine molecules). The presence of glycine, an amino acid and a neurotransmitter, enhances the supplement's bioavailability, allowing for efficient absorption in the gut and minimizing digestive discomfort typically associated with other forms of magnesium.

    Once absorbed, magnesium plays pivotal roles in numerous physiological processes. It is a crucial co-factor in over 300 enzyme systems involved in a myriad of biochemical reactions, including protein synthesis, muscle and nerve function, blood glucose control, and blood pressure regulation. Low magnesium levels can result in symptoms like fatigue, muscle weakness, and sleep issues.

    Furthermore, magnesium's interaction with glycine enhances the supplement's beneficial impact on the nervous system. Glycine is a neurotransmitter that can inhibit excitatory neurotransmitters, thereby inducing a calming effect and promoting better sleep.

    Magnesium also exhibits potent anti-inflammatory properties and can help stabilize blood sugar levels, contributing to overall health and wellness.

    How will I know its working?

    Regular intake of magnesium glycinate may result in improved sleep quality, increased relaxation, reduced muscle cramps, and more stable blood sugar levels.

    When to take it?

    Take 1 tablet daily with food and water, unless specified otherwise on the sachet.
