Made in Canada

Best taken Evening with food (most popular use is sleep support)

Who CanPrev Magnesium Bisglycinate Is For

  • Adults dealing with stress, anxiety, or trouble winding down at night
  • People with trouble falling or staying asleep — magnesium is one of the most-recommended sleep supplements
  • Active people experiencing muscle cramps, tension, or post-workout soreness
  • Anyone wanting a daily magnesium that won't cause loose stools (the bisglycinate form is gentle on digestion)
  • Adults 40+ where magnesium absorption from food declines

Who this product is NOT for: If you mostly want magnesium for occasional constipation, magnesium citrate works better (it pulls water into the bowel). If you have kidney disease or take certain medications (especially certain antibiotics or osteoporosis drugs), talk to your healthcare practitioner first.

Vitamart's Take

Magnesium is the supplement people most often tell us actually helped — usually with sleep, sometimes with muscle cramps or stress. Bisglycinate is the gentle form. It doesn't run you to the bathroom the way some magnesiums do, and the glycine part is calming on its own. Take one before bed with food. CanPrev's a well-known Canadian brand and 200 mg is a full daily dose.

How CanPrev Magnesium Bisglycinate Compares

Bisglycinate vs Citrate vs Oxide

Magnesium Bisglycinate (this form): Best for sleep, stress, muscle tension, and daily use. Well-absorbed and gentle.
Magnesium Citrate: Best for occasional constipation. Has a mild laxative effect.
Magnesium Oxide: Very low absorption (4%). Often found in lower-cost multivitamins. Best avoided if absorption matters to you.

CanPrev vs Vitacheck Magnesium Bisglycinate

CanPrev (this product): Premium Canadian brand, well-known and trusted. Higher price.
Vitacheck Magnesium Bisglycinate: One of our Vitamart Exclusive brands. Same elemental dose (200 mg), same bisglycinate form, lower-cost option.

Magnesium Bisglycinate vs Magnesium Threonate

Magnesium Bisglycinate: Best for general sleep, stress, and muscle support.
Magnesium Threonate: Crosses the blood-brain barrier better. Used specifically for cognitive support. Premium-priced.

The 7 Forms of Magnesium

Not all magnesium supplements are the same. The form determines what magnesium does in your body:

  • Bisglycinate (this product): Sleep, stress, muscle tension. Gentle on digestion.
  • Citrate: Constipation relief. Mild laxative effect.
  • Threonate: Brain and cognitive support.
  • Malate: Energy production and fibromyalgia support.
  • Taurate: Cardiovascular support.
  • Chloride / Sulfate: Usually topical (Epsom salts).
  • Oxide: Low absorption (~4%). Avoid for therapeutic use.

If you only buy one magnesium, bisglycinate is the most flexible — it works for sleep, stress, muscle support, and daily maintenance without digestive side effects.

How To Use

Adults: Take 1 capsule daily, ideally in the evening with food, or as directed by your healthcare practitioner. Some people take 2 capsules — once in the morning and once in the evening — for stronger support.

Talk to a healthcare practitioner before use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have kidney disease, have a medical condition, or are taking medication (especially certain antibiotics or osteoporosis drugs).

Frequently Asked Questions

Why bisglycinate over other forms?
Bisglycinate is well-absorbed, gentle on digestion (no laxative effect), and the glycine component supports relaxation. It's the form most healthcare practitioners recommend for general use, especially for sleep and stress.
Is this good for sleep?
Magnesium bisglycinate is one of the most popular sleep supplements. Magnesium supports the nervous system's relaxation response, and the glycine in bisglycinate has its own calming effect. Most people take it 30-60 minutes before bed.
How is this different from Vitacheck Magnesium Bisglycinate?
Both use 200 mg of elemental magnesium from bisglycinate. CanPrev is the established Canadian premium brand. Vitacheck is one of our Vitamart Exclusive brands at a lower price point. Both are quality options — it's a choice between premium brand recognition and price.
Will this cause loose stools?
Bisglycinate is the gentlest magnesium form on digestion. Unlike citrate or oxide (which pull water into the bowel and cause loose stools at higher doses), bisglycinate is well-absorbed and shouldn't cause this.
How much magnesium should I take daily?
Health Canada's RDI is 320 mg (women) and 420 mg (men). Most adults get about half from food, so 200-400 mg from supplements is typical. Start with 1 capsule (200 mg) and adjust based on how you feel.
Should I take it with or without food?
With food is better — reduces any chance of stomach upset and supports absorption. Evening dosing is most common for sleep support.
