Quest Magnesium Bisglycinate 200mg, Gentle Chelated Magnesium for Muscle Function and Bone Health, 90 Vegetable Capsules

Quest Magnesium Bisglycinate 200mg Details

Magnesium oxide is cheap, and it is what fills most magnesium supplements. The problem is that very little of it is absorbed, and what is not absorbed stays in the gut and draws water in — which is why so many people find magnesium gives them loose stools and conclude they cannot tolerate it.

Magnesium bisglycinate is a different proposition. It is an organic magnesium salt in which the mineral is chelated to glycine, and it is considered one of the gentlest forms of magnesium salt on the stomach. It is also a source of glycine itself, an amino acid with its own calming character — which is part of why bisglycinate is the form people reach for at night.

Quest delivers 200 mg of elemental magnesium per capsule from bisglycinate and citrate. It helps the body metabolize carbohydrates, fats and proteins, helps in the development and maintenance of bones and teeth, and helps maintain proper muscle function.

One capsule daily. Quest is a Canadian brand, manufacturing vitamins and minerals in Canada.

Who Quest Magnesium Bisglycinate 200mg Is For

This suits anyone who has tried magnesium and found it upsetting, people taking it for muscle cramps or sleep, and anyone building bone health alongside calcium. Because bisglycinate is gentle, it is also the sensible form to start with if you have never supplemented magnesium.

Magnesium is one of the more commonly low minerals in a Western diet, but if you take medication — particularly for blood pressure or heart rhythm — speak to a practitioner first, since magnesium interacts with several classes. Consult one too if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
