Most magnesium (citrate, bisglycinate, oxide) raises blood magnesium but doesn't cross the blood-brain barrier well. OptiMag Threonate uses Magtein® — a patented threonate developed by MIT researchers specifically for that purpose — combined with two other premium magnesium forms in a single powder. It's a higher-cost product because of the Magtein® ingredient.
