In Canada, insufficient magnesium intake is estimated to occur in more than one-third of adolescents and adults, with even higher levels of insufficient intake in elderly individuals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMagnesium glycinate (also known as magnesium bis-glycinate) is a highly water-soluble amino acid chelate of magnesium and two glycine molecules. Clinical evidence indicates that magnesium glycinate has a significantly higher bioavailability than magnesium oxide, and is less likely to cause a laxative effect. Supplementation with magnesium glycinate has been shown to decrease the severity of muscle cramping. In a clinical trial of 86 healthy pregnant women with recurrent muscle cramps, supplementation with 300 mg of magnesium glycinate for four weeks reduced both the frequency and intensity of leg cramps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGenestra Magnesium Glycinate Powder Features and Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides a gentle form of magnesium that is less likely to cause loose stools1,2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHelps to maintain proper muscle function, including the heart muscle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports nutrient and energy metabolism\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAids in the development and maintenance of bones and teeth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOffers 205 mg of magnesium per scoop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e","brand":"Genestra Brands","offers":[{"title":"Unflavoured","offer_id":43146144481451,"sku":"04229-DiscoSupplier","price":39.75,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0621\/4126\/8139\/files\/04229-genestra-brands-magnesium-glycinate-powder-164g-min.jpg?v=1741801666","url":"https:\/\/www.vitamart.ca\/fr\/products\/genestra-magnesium-glycinate-powder-164g","provider":"Vitamart.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
