Magnesium Glycinate is considered the best-absorbed form of magnesium. It is generally very well tolerated and does not lead to gastrointestinal discomfort even when taken at a higher amount.
Magnesium Glycinate relaxes and soothes the nerves and is therefore considered the best magnesium for people who are under a lot of stress and tension.
The powder form is convenient and makes it easy to adjust the dosage to the personal needs. Magnesium Glycinate dissolves easily in water or fruit juice and is ideal for people who do not want to swallow capsules.
Minerals such as magnesium cannot be directly absorbed by the body in their naturally occurring, inorganic form. For this to be possible, they first have to be activated in the digestive tract.
This so-called chelation increases the bioavailability, which makes it easier for magnesium to pass through the intestinal wall and be absorbed. In the case of bioactive minerals, the chelation is anticipated during production.
Chelates are organic compounds, often with amino acids (such as glycine), malic acid (malate) or citrates. These enclose the magnesium molecules and actively channel them through the intestinal wall into the body.
As a result, chelated magnesium achieves optimal bioavailability, which means that much more of it can be absorbed than with conventional magnesium products.
