What is Magnesium?
Involved in over 300 enzymatic reactions. Contributes to normal muscle function, normal functioning of the nervous system, normal energy-yielding metabolism and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. One of the most commonly under-consumed minerals in the UK diet.
Why Magnesium Bisglycinate?
Magnesium bisglycinate is magnesium bound to two molecules of the amino acid glycine. It is about 14% magnesium by weight and a permitted form for food supplements in the UK. Organic and chelated forms of magnesium are better absorbed than magnesium oxide, the cheap form common in high-street multivitamins.
