• People supporting bone health and normal electrolyte balance
• Adolescents 9 and over, as directed on the label

Who this product is NOT for:

Vitamart's Take

Magnesium glycinate is the form we recommend most when people ask for a magnesium that won't upset their stomach, and this is a well-made version. The TRAACS® bisglycinate chelate is known for its stability, the dose is easy to adjust at 150 mg per capsule, and the capsules contain just hypromellose and vegetable-source magnesium stearate as non-medicinal ingredients. If you've had trouble with cheaper magnesium oxide or citrate, this is a good next step.

How Magnesium Glycinate Complex Compares

Glycinate vs. malate

Designs for Health Magnesium Malate binds magnesium to malic acid, a Krebs cycle compound, and is often chosen by physically active people. Glycinate is the go-to when gentleness on the stomach is the priority.

Capsules vs. powder

Designs for Health Magnesium Glycinate Powder delivers magnesium bisglycinate as an orange-flavoured drink. The capsules are easier to travel with and let you take 150 mg at a time.

Glycinate vs. L-threonate

Magnesium L-threonate (Designs for Health NeuroMag) is used for brain support because of its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier, but it provides much less magnesium per capsule. Glycinate is the better choice for general magnesium status.

What Is Magnesium Bisglycinate Chelate?

• Magnesium bisglycinate is magnesium bound to two molecules of the amino acid glycine
• The chelate is formed through a patented process (TRAACS®), creating a very stable bond between the glycine molecules and each magnesium ion
• That stable chelate is why it is considered one of the best-absorbed forms of magnesium
• This "buffered" version combines magnesium bisglycinate chelate with magnesium oxide
• Magnesium supports energy metabolism, normal muscle function (including the heart muscle), bone health and electrolyte balance

Recommended Purpose

• Supports energy metabolism
• Supports normal muscle function, including the heart muscle
• Supports bone health
• Supports normal electrolyte balance

• Adults and adolescents 9 and over: take 1 capsule twice per day, or as directed by your health care practitioner
