Magnesium Bisglycinate

Magnesium Bisglycinate is a highly absorbable form of magnesium, an essential mineral involved in more than 600 enzymatic reactions in the body. According to World Health Organization statistics, as many as 75 percent of U.S. adults do not meet the FDA's Recommended Daily Intake of 420 mg of magnesium. **Key Benefits:** • Essential for the health of the heart and blood vessels, brain, bones, muscles, and lungs* • Supports healthy sugar metabolism and insulin sensitivity* • Promotes bronchial relaxation* • Essential mineral for electrical activity of the heart, which supports normal heart rate and rhythm* • Helps relax smooth and skeletal muscle* • Promotes the dilation of blood vessels (vasodilation), which maintains normal blood pressure and enhances blood flow* • Acts as a cofactor for enzymes involved in cellular energy production* **Who Can Benefit:** • Individuals experiencing inefficient blood sugar metabolism • Those with muscle cramps or soreness • People experiencing eyelid twitching • Those dealing with fatigue and poor sleep **Superior Absorption:** • The bisglycinate form is bound to glycine, a calming neurotransmitter* • Good choice for pre-bedtime supplementation to support restful sleep* • Decreased laxative effect compared to other magnesium formulations **Features of Thorne's Magnesium Bisglycinate:** • Great-tasting powder that can be mixed with water, juice, or another powdered supplement • Available in bulk powder or individual stick pack servings • NSF Certified for Sport® **Quality Assurance:** • Every batch of this NSF Certified for Sport® product is tested for compliance with label claims • Tested to ensure the absence of nearly 300 substances banned by many major athletic organizations • Provides athletes with trustworthy and compliant supplementation **Did You Know?** The compound magnesium bisglycinate is also called magnesium glycinate. However, because it has two glycine molecules attached, it is more accurately called "bisglycinate" (bis = two). Bottom line: They're the same thing.
