Magnesium bisglycinate is magnesium chemically bonded to the amino acid glycine. Vit4ever uses this form in a daily dose of 300 mg of elemental magnesium. The bottle is available in two sizes: 240 or 365 capsules, so your supply matches how you prefer to stock up.
Magnesium itself exists in dozens of variants, and the difference is almost never in the magnesium itself. It lies in what it is bonded to. In magnesium oxide, that is a simple salt; in bisglycinate, it is bonded to two glycine molecules, a small amino acid that occurs naturally in proteins. This bond is called a chelate, a chemical term for a molecule that effectively wraps around a mineral. Bisglycinate is absorbed via a different pathway than magnesium salts such as oxide. Magnesium citrate is more soluble than oxide, but can have a slightly laxative effect at higher doses. In magnesium complex formulas, multiple forms are mixed; the composition then depends on the proportion of each form in the mixture.
At the recommended dose of three capsules per day, you get 300 mg of elemental magnesium. Note: that is the weight of the pure mineral, not the weight of the entire compound including the glycine. Manufacturers do not always state that clearly, which is why on some bottles you see a higher number that actually refers to the total compound and thus appears misleadingly high. Vit4ever calculates with the elemental value, and 300 mg corresponds to 82 percent of the reference intake that applies to adults. Magnesium contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous system and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, and that applies to magnesium in general, regardless of the form used.
Glycine is an amino acid that occurs naturally in proteins. By bonding magnesium to glycine, a chelate is created. Bisglycinate is not the only chelate form on the market; malate is also bonded to an organic molecule. The distinction between the two lies mainly in the transport molecule itself: glycine versus malic acid.
Anyone looking for magnesium in bisglycinate form without unnecessary additives will find a simple formula here: only magnesium bisglycinate and a plant-based capsule shell of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose. Vit4ever does not add unnecessary fillers or flavorings. The magnesium itself is the same element in every form; the difference between magnesium forms lies in the compound to which it is bonded.
A daily dose of three capsules provides 300 mg of pure magnesium, covering 82 percent of the reference intake.
The magnesium is bound to glycine, a small amino acid that occurs naturally in proteins.

Magnesium bisglycinate is magnesium that is chemically bound to two molecules of glycine, a small amino acid. This bond is called a chelate and ensures that your body absorbs the mineral differently than with a loose magnesium salt such as oxide.
With the recommended dosage of three capsules, you get 300 mg of elemental magnesium. That is 82 percent of the daily reference intake for adults.
The difference lies in the compound: with bisglycinate, magnesium is bound to glycine; with citrate, to citric acid; and with malate, to malic acid. At higher doses, citrate can have a mild laxative effect. Which form you choose mainly depends on your preference.
This is because some manufacturers list the weight of the entire compound, including the glycine, instead of just the pure magnesium. Vit4ever calculates with the elemental value, so the 300 mg on this page is the actual magnesium you receive.
Due to its binding to glycine, bisglycinate is absorbed through a different pathway than magnesium salts such as oxide.
Both jars contain exactly the same capsules with the same dosage of 300 mg elemental magnesium per daily dose. The only difference is the quantity: the 365-count jar gives you a year's supply, while the 240-count jar provides a smaller supply for those who prefer to buy smaller jars more frequently.
