For over two decades, our original Magnesium Glycinate 165 mg formulation has been Canada’s go-to for highly absorbable, bowel-friendly magnesium support. With a track record of excellence since 2002, this trusted formula balances strength and gentleness, supporting everything from muscle recovery and stress management to better sleep and pain relief.
Now in smaller, easy-to-swallow capsules and completely excipient-free, this formulation continues to deliver proven, reliable magnesium support. Recommended for adults and children 9 years and up, it remains a staple for those looking to restore and maintain optimal magnesium levels—without compromise.
Magnesium is present in foods, like nuts, greens and whole grains--yet at least 80 percent of North Americans are deficient. Considering hectic lifestyles, dependence upon fast foods, nut allergies and chronic health conditions, it’s no wonder that society is falling short on the Recommended Daily Intake of about 450 milligrams per day of this mineral.
Magnesium is required for energy production, protein synthesis, heartbeat regulation, muscle function, nerve conduction and blood sugar metabolism. Vital for activation of nerves and movement of muscles, it influences blood pressure, sleep, pain and relaxation. Like with any nutrient, your individual needs vary according to health condition and stress level. Supplementation can provide a safe, convenient and effective way to meet these needs.
You’ve probably seen a wide array of natural health products that contain magnesium, but they aren’t all equal in their health benefits. Reports of unwanted side effects like bloating, gas and loose stool with the use of pure magnesium oxide supplements are common. This is because only a small amount of the magnesium from magnesium oxide is absorbed from the gut into the blood, and the unabsorbed portion is left in the bowel—whether you need it or not—causing loose stools.
