AOR Magnesium Glycinate 90mg, 180-360 Capsules

AOR Magnesium Glycinate Details

AOR Magnesium Glycinate delivers 90 mg of elemental magnesium per capsule as magnesium bisglycinate — the chelated form bound to the amino acid glycine for enhanced absorption and minimal digestive disruption. The bisglycinate form is specifically chosen for daily relaxation, sleep, and muscle-support goals rather than for digestive cleansing (oxide is the right form for that purpose). Vegetarian hypromellose capsules. Available in 180 or 360-capsule sizes. Made in Canada. Non-GMO, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan.

Quick Facts

Who AOR Magnesium Glycinate Is For

• Adults wanting daily magnesium support for sleep, stress, or muscle relaxation
• People who want a magnesium form that doesn't affect their bowel routine — bisglycinate is gentle on digestion
• Anyone dealing with muscle cramps, twitches, or tension that magnesium replenishment may support
• Adults wanting an evening supplement to support natural relaxation before bed
• Active people whose training depletes magnesium more quickly than sedentary adults
• Anyone wanting to add brand-trusted Canadian-made bisglycinate to their daily routine

Who this product is NOT for: If you specifically want brain-focused magnesium support (memory, cognitive function), magnesium L-threonate is the targeted form — see Naka Pro Magnesium L-Threonate or Xymogen OptiMag Threonate. If you specifically want digestive cleansing or constipation relief, magnesium oxide is the right form for that purpose — see Renew Life CleanseMORE, which uses magnesium oxide as its primary active ingredient. If you take prescription medications, especially blood pressure or kidney medications, talk to your healthcare practitioner before adding magnesium.

Vitamart's Take

AOR Magnesium Glycinate is one of the most respected daily bisglycinate magnesiums in our shelves. AOR is a long-running Canadian practitioner-trusted brand, and their formulation is clean — just magnesium bisglycinate in a vegetarian hypromellose capsule. 90 mg per capsule is a moderate dose, which means you can adjust your daily intake easily by taking 1-3 capsules depending on your goal. The 360-capsule size is genuinely good value for daily users.

How AOR Magnesium Glycinate Compares

AOR Magnesium Glycinate vs Vitacheck Magnesium Bisglycinate

AOR Magnesium Glycinate (this product): 90 mg elemental magnesium per capsule. Respected Canadian practitioner-trusted brand. Smaller per-capsule dose allows flexible daily intake (1-3 capsules).
Vitacheck Magnesium Bisglycinate: 200 mg elemental magnesium per capsule. Vitamart Exclusive brand at a more accessible price point. Same active form. Larger per-capsule dose means fewer capsules per day for the same total magnesium.

AOR Magnesium Glycinate vs AOR Advanced Magnesium Complex

AOR Magnesium Glycinate (this product): Single form — just magnesium bisglycinate. 90 mg elemental magnesium.
AOR Advanced Magnesium Complex: Four forms blended (glycinate, malate, aspartate, ascorbate). Broader functional support — energy from malate, vitamin C from ascorbate. 100 mg elemental magnesium. A different approach to magnesium supplementation.

Magnesium Bisglycinate vs Magnesium Citrate

Bisglycinate (this product): Highly absorbable, no laxative effect, gentle on digestion. Best for daily use, sleep, stress, and muscle support.
Magnesium Citrate: Has a mild laxative effect at higher doses. A fit for adults wanting magnesium with gentle bowel-support benefit. Lower cost.

The 7 Forms of Magnesium: A Quick Guide

Magnesium supplements come in several different forms. Each form is best suited to a specific goal — there's no single "best" magnesium, just the right magnesium for what you're trying to accomplish:

• Magnesium Bisglycinate (this product): Best for daily use, sleep, stress, muscle support. The gentlest form on digestion. The most popular form for ongoing daily supplementation.
• Magnesium Citrate: Mild laxative effect. Good for daily use if not bowel-sensitive, and useful for occasional gentle constipation support. Lower cost.
• Magnesium L-Threonate (Magtein®): The only form that meaningfully raises brain magnesium. Best for cognitive, memory, and focus goals.
• Magnesium Malate: Often used for energy support and fibromyalgia. Combines magnesium with malic acid.
• Magnesium Taurate: Combined with taurine. Sometimes preferred for cardiovascular wellness.
• Magnesium Oxide: The best magnesium form for digestive cleansing and constipation relief. The osmotic effect that some adults want to avoid in their daily magnesium is exactly what makes oxide effective at drawing water into the bowel for digestive support — it's the active ingredient in milk of magnesia and in Renew Life CleanseMORE, one of our best-selling cleanse products. Not the right form for daily magnesium replenishment, but the right form when bowel support is the goal.
• Magnesium Aspartate: Reasonable absorption, often included in energy-support blends.

For most adults wanting general daily magnesium support — sleep, stress, muscles — magnesium bisglycinate (this product) is the right starting point. If your goal is digestive cleansing or constipation relief, magnesium oxide is the appropriate form. If your goal is brain support, magnesium L-threonate is the targeted form. Match the form to the goal.

How To Use

Adults: Take 1-3 capsules daily with food, depending on your magnesium goal. Many people take 1 capsule (90 mg) in the morning and 1-2 capsules (90-180 mg) in the evening before bed for sleep and relaxation support. Total daily magnesium intake from supplements should generally stay under 350 mg for healthy adults unless directed by a practitioner.

Talk to a healthcare practitioner before use if you have kidney disease, are pregnant or breastfeeding, take prescription medications (especially blood pressure or muscle relaxants), or have a medical condition.
