Magnesium comes in many forms, but they aren't all absorbed or tolerated equally. Magnesium glycinate binds magnesium to the amino acid glycine, creating a highly bioavailable form that's generally gentle on the digestive system.
We chose glycinate because it delivers magnesium in a form the body can readily use without relying on the cheaper, less absorbable forms commonly found in mass-market supplements.
Know What You're Actually Getting
250 mg means more than 1,786 mg.
Each two-capsule serving provides 250 mg of elemental magnesium from 1,786 mg of magnesium glycinate. We show you both numbers because the larger compound weight isn't the same thing as the amount of magnesium you're actually getting.
Magnesium glycinate is magnesium bound to the amino acid glycine, so the complete compound naturally weighs considerably more than its elemental magnesium content. For us, clearly stating both numbers isn't a marketing detail—it's part of knowing what's actually in the bottle.
