Magnesium Glycinate – For heart, skeletal and whole body health

Magnesium is an essential mineral that is involved in more than 300 biochemical reactions in the body. Magnesium glycinate (also called magnesium bisglycinate) is one of the most bioavailable and well-tolerated forms of magnesium, where the mineral is bound to the amino acid glycine. This makes absorption more efficient and has a gentle effect on the digestive system. Magnesium glycinate is therefore an optimal choice for supporting the heart, muscles, skeleton and nervous system, while helping to reduce fatigue and oxidative stress.

Health effects

• Supports muscle and nerve function: Magnesium contributes to normal muscle function, including relaxation and recovery, as well as normal function of the nervous system.

• Contributes to bone and skeletal health: Magnesium helps to maintain normal bones and normal protein synthesis, in addition to regulating the calcium balance.

• Surprising effect – cardiovascular support: Magnesium helps to maintain normal heart rhythm, blood pressure and normal function of blood vessels, and is also involved in protecting cells against oxidative stress.
