Magnesium Blend

What is a magnesium blend?

A magnesium blend is a supplement that either combines several forms of magnesium in one product, or pairs magnesium with complementary nutrients. Different magnesium forms are absorbed and used a little differently — glycinate is gentle and calming, citrate is well absorbed, malate is often used for daytime energy, and L-threonate is studied for the brain — so a blend aims to cover more than one at once. If you'd rather pick a single type, see magnesium.

Types of magnesium blends

• Multi-form magnesium — two or more magnesium types (e.g. glycinate + citrate + malate) for broad coverage.
• Magnesium + vitamins/minerals — magnesium with D3 and K2, calcium, zinc, or B6 for bone and general support.
• Sleep blends — magnesium with GABA, melatonin, or L-theanine for winding down.
• Stress blends — magnesium with ashwagandha and B-vitamins for stress support.

How to choose

Think about why you want magnesium: a calming or sleep blend for the evening, a multi-form blend for everyday use, or a bone-focused blend with D3 and K2. Check the elemental magnesium per serving (the actual magnesium amount, which is lower than the compound weight), and start low if you're new to it, since magnesium can loosen stools. Still not sure? Our Magnesium Quiz can point you to a form. Magnesium sold in Canada carries a Natural Product Number (NPN).
