Why Magnesium Glycinate?
Magnesium can’t be taken in pure form — it must be bound to another compound. Metagenics uses pure chelated magnesium bisglycinate, where magnesium is joined to two molecules of glycine. This form is better absorbed and tolerated than magnesium oxide, citrate, or carbonate. Glycine also has its own calming properties, making it an ideal pairing for sleep and stress support.
How to Take
Take 2–3 tablets daily, ideally in the evening due to the calming effect on muscles and the nervous system. Can be taken with or without food.
The RNI for magnesium is 270–300mg daily. Just 2–3 tablets of Metagenics Magnesium Glycinate can help you meet this alongside a balanced diet.
When Will I Notice a Difference?
Some people notice a difference in as little as 72 hours. For others, it may take several weeks. We recommend taking consistently for at least 3 months to experience the full benefits.
