Magnesium Bis Glycinate - 400mg Full Chelate Powder

Provides magnesium bis-glycinate in a fully reacted amino acid chelate for improved stability, absorption, and tolerability. Each scoop provides 400 mg of elemental magnesium. Unflavored with minimal added ingredients for stability and antimicrobial action. Magnesium is one of the most important minerals for our health. It is necessary for maintaining proper nerve and muscle function through its regulation of calcium, for the creation of cellular energy in the mitochondria, and also acts as a cofactor for building DNA, RNA, and many proteins. Despite its great importance, it is a common deficiency in the Canadian population due to poor diet, medication depletion, and stress. Suboptimal magnesium levels create a pro-inflammatory state in the body with numerous health implications. As more and more research continues to develop regarding the benefits of magnesium for human health, it is difficult not to consider supplementation in most patients. Clinical trials and large-scale evidence have shown that magnesium can be helpful for muscle tension, fatigue, anxiety, depression, insomnia, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), cardiovascular disease, dementia, osteoporosis, migraines, and more. Magnesium bis-glycinate is a form of magnesium that combines one molecule of magnesium with two molecules of the inhibitory amino acid glycine. This chelated bond is advantageous because it remains stable throughout the digestive tract, preventing magnesium from binding to other compounds. The presence of glycine also allows the molecule to access dipeptide transport sites. Ultimately, this leads to greater absorption and tolerance in the body. Magnesium Bis-Glycinate 400mg Full Chelate provides a pure, fully reacted amino acid chelate of magnesium bis-glycinate. This magnesium bis-glycinate is designed to provide the best-absorbed magnesium and the gentlest delivery for patients with sensitive digestive tracts.
