The mineral magnesium is crucial for the body to function properly because magnesium is involved in more than 600 of the body's enzymatic reactions.

According to World Health Organization statistics, as many as 75 percent of U.S. adults do not meet the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's Recommended Daily Intake of 420 mg of magnesium. Magnesium deficiency can manifest in many ways, such as inefficient blood sugar metabolism, muscle cramps or soreness, eyelid twitching, fatigue, and poor sleep.

Benefits of Magnesium

• Magnesium is essential for the health of the heart and blood vessels, brain, bones, muscles, and lungs, and to support healthy sugar metabolism*
• Promotes bronchial relaxation*
• It’s an essential mineral for the electrical activity of the heart, which supports a normal heart rate and rhythm*
• Helps relax smooth and skeletal muscle*
• Promotes the dilation of blood vessels (vasodilation), which maintains normal blood pressure and enhances blood flow*
• Supports insulin sensitivity*
• It is a cofactor for enzymes involved in cellular energy production*
• The glycinate form of magnesium is a good choice for pre-bedtime supplementation to support restful sleep because the magnesium is bound to glycine, a calming neurotransmitter*

Features of Thorne’s Magnesium Glycinate

• Decreased laxative effect compared to other magnesium formulations because the glycinate form is a true chelate that completely envelops the magnesium
• Also available as a powdered formula in individual stick pack servings or a 60-serving jar

Did you know?

The compound magnesium bisglycinate is also called magnesium glycinate. However, because it has two glycine molecules attached, it is more accurately called “bisglycinate” (bis = two). Bottom line: They’re the same thing.
