Magnesium is an essential mineral found in foods like leafy greens, nuts, seeds and whole grains. In the EU, it's one of the nutrients with officially authorised health claims: magnesium contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, to normal psychological function, to normal muscle function and to the normal functioning of the nervous system.
Why are there so many forms?
In supplements, magnesium is always bound to another compound. That partner changes the product's texture, taste and how gentle it feels. Common forms include magnesium oxide, citrate, malate and bisglycinate.
What is magnesium bisglycinate?
Magnesium bisglycinate (also called magnesium glycinate) is magnesium bound to two molecules of glycine, an amino acid. This "chelated" form is known for being gentle on the stomach, which is why many people prefer it as part of a daily routine.
How to make it part of your evening
Many women like to take magnesium in the evening, as part of their wind-down: lights low, screens off, a cup of tea. Our Magnesium Bisglycinate Gummies provide 400 mg of magnesium bisglycinate per serving of two raspberry gummies — sugar-free, vegan and gelatin-free.
