Magnesium Glycinate 200mg by NOW Foods
Are you looking for a magnesium supplement in chelated form? Then magnesium glycinate is worth considering. This product from NOW Foods binds magnesium to the amino acid glycine. Two tablets provide 200 mg of elemental magnesium, derived from 2000 mg of Albion bisglycinate. The bottle contains 180 tablets, a 90-day supply.
What makes magnesium glycinate different
There are many forms of magnesium, such as magnesium oxide, citrate, and glycinate. In magnesium glycinate, the mineral is bound to two glycine molecules. This is called chelation. NOW Foods uses Albion bisglycinate, a patented chelate with consistent specifications. The difference between the various forms therefore lies mainly in the substance to which the magnesium is bound.
