Magnesium is essential for the health of the heart and blood vessels, brain, bones, muscles, lungs, and to support healthy blood sugar metabolism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p3\"\u003e200mg elemental magnesium per serve in the well-absorbed glycinate form \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p3\"\u003eGlycine is an important amino acid to support relaxation of the nervous system \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p3\"\u003eGreat tasting with a hint of citrus and lightly sweetened with Monk fruit mixing easily in beverages\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p3\"\u003eGentle on the stomach \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p3\"\u003eAvailable in powder for flexible dosing or pre-measured or convenient individual packets that can go where you go. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p3\"\u003eNSF Certified for Sport® \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch6 class=\"p3\"\u003eWhat are the benefits of magnesium bisglycinate?\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p3\"\u003eMagnesium is essential for the health of the heart and blood vessels, brain, bones, muscles, and lungs, and to support healthy sugar metabolism\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p3\"\u003eIt supports bronchial relaxation for easy breathing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p3\"\u003eFor the heart, it is an essential mineral for electrical activity, supporting normal heart rate and rhythm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p3\"\u003eHelps relax smooth and skeletal muscle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p3\"\u003ePromotes the dilation of blood vessels (vasodilation), which maintains normal blood pressure and healthy blood flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p3\"\u003eSupports insulin sensitivity for healthy blood sugar balance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p3\"\u003eIs a necessary cofactor for enzymes involved in cellular energy production\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p3\"\u003eA good choice for pre-bedtime supplementation to support relaxation in mind and body, and restful sleep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch6 class=\"p3\"\u003eWhat’s the advantage of a glycinate form of magnesium?\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003eMagnesium glycinate and magnesium bisglycinate are the same thing but with a slight difference in the name, both referring to magnesium that is attached to 1 or 2 molecules of the amino acid glycine. The ‘bis’ refers to ‘two’, meaning there are two glycine molecules per molecule of magnesium in the bisglycinate form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003eThe addition of glycine molecules to this form of magnesium has several important functions. Firstly, it aids absorption of the magnesium molecule into the body. Mineral absorption is dependent on how soluble the mineral is, and in turn, the mineral’s solubility is determined by the pH of its environment – the lower the pH, the more soluble the mineral. Glycine, the amino acid in magnesium bisglycinate, helps to decrease the pH in the small intestine, which improves the solubility and absorbability of Magnesium into the body and greater bioavailability to our cells where its needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003eAnother advantage of the bisglyinate form is that the two glycine molecules occupy active sites on magnesium, which reduces magnesium’s tendency to combine with phytates and other plant-based substances that would otherwise inhibit its absorption into the body. The addition of glycine molecules also makes magnesium less attractive to water and minimises the laxative effect often experienced with other, less absorbable forms of magnesium (like magnesium oxide).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003eFinally, the glycine amino acid molecules provide their own individual and synergistic benefits to the body alongside magnesium. Glycine itself supports the relaxation of the nervous system as it functions as an inhibitory neurotransmitter alongside GABA, working like a ‘brake’ pedal to slow down and calm down nervous system functioning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6 class=\"p3\"\u003eNSF Certified for Sport®\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003eBecause athletes need to know their supplements are trustworthy and compliant, every batch of an NSF Certified for Sport® product is tested for compliance with label claims and to ensure the absence of more than 200 substances banned by many major athletic organisations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eIngredients\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eMagnesium (as Magnesium Bisglycinate) 200 mg.
