Absorption is the whole point of a magnesium supplement.
Muscles, nerves, energy and mood all draw on magnesium, so the form you take it in matters.
Magnesium sits behind hundreds of enzyme reactions in the body, from muscle contraction to the way the nervous system regulates itself. It is also one of the first minerals to run short, and caffeine, alcohol, hard training and a diet light on leafy greens all draw on the same reserves.
The form matters as much as the dose. This formula uses three: bisglycinate, chelated to glycine and buffered so it stays gentle on the stomach; citrate, which is well absorbed; and malate, which sits inside the body's own energy cycle. Together they provide 384mg of elemental magnesium per two-capsule serving, 102% of the daily reference intake.
Magnesium contributes to normal muscle function, the normal functioning of the nervous system, normal psychological function and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Two capsules daily, with no fillers, binders or excipients.

A closer look
Magnesium
An essential mineral found naturally in leafy greens, nuts, seeds and wholegrains, and one the body cannot store in large amounts. This formula provides 384mg of elemental magnesium from three forms: bisglycinate chelated to glycine, citrate and malate. It contributes to normal muscle function, the normal functioning of the nervous system, normal psychological function and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. *

A note from our co-founder
“Most magnesium on the shelf is oxide, because it is cheap and it lets you print a big number on the front. Very little of it gets absorbed. We used three forms instead and buffered them, because how well a mineral is taken up matters more than how large the number looks.”
