Description

Magnesium Glycinate Capsules

Magnesium is a vital mineral that is used in many biological processes. For example, it is a cofactor in more than 300 enzyme systems! It is also one of the most common minerals that we are deficient in so it is important to take a high quality Magnesium supplement. This however, is not the easiest thing to find, as Magnesium supplements are notorious for poor absorption. There are a few different factors that cause this. The main one appears to be due to its physical properties. Most of the Magnesium that we ingest is absorbed in our small intestines through small spaces called tight junctions. Absorption through tight junctions is dependent largely on the size of the compound, its solubility, and its pH. Unfortunatey, these three issues all make it very hard for Magnesium we consume to be adequately absorbed.

Absorbing a Magnesium Supplement

Magnesium, when it comes into contact with water, attracts a large amount of water molecules which arrange around the Magnesium ion. This is known as the hydration shell. The hydration shell physically makes Magnesium bigger which, in turn, makes it far more difficult for it to pass through tight junctions in our small intestines. Compared to Calcium, Magnesium has a much larger hydration shell, which causes two issues:

  1. Magnesium has a much more difficult time being absorbed by our bodies because of its large hydration shell. So, when Magnesium and Calcium are consumed at the same time, they compete for absorption. This is problematic because Calcium will generally have the upper hand due to its much smaller hydration shell. This limits the amount of Magnesium that can be absorbed by our bodies.
  2. Magnesium increases pH levels at tight junctions when ingested in supplemental dosages. The reason that this is an issue is because there are proteins in the tight junctions called Claudins that strip Magnesium of its hydration shell allowing it to pass through the tight junction. However, as pH increases, Claudins become less and less active. In turn, Magnesium limits its own absorption by gradually increasing intestinal pH.

Chelated Magnesium Glycinate Benefits

The benefits of taking a chelated Magnesium Glycinate supplement is where Glycine comes in as an excellent pH buffer. When chelating Magnesium with Glycine, the rise in pH at tight junctions is largely reduced. This leads to significantly improved Magnesium absorption. The Glycine in theory may also reduce the size of the Magnesium hydration shell and in addition to this, may allow Magnesium to be transported through amino acid transport systems. Magnesium is also fairly reactive and can react with Phytates that are present in our diet. Magnesium that has reacted with Phytates is practically impossible to absorb and this is highly problematic because Phytates are fairly prevalent in foods that contain large amounts of Magnesium, such as almonds and spinach. Chelating Magnesium with Glycinate appears to reduce the reactivity of Magnesium with Phytates. This enhances its bioavailability even when it is taken alongside food.

Is This Magnesium Glycinate Supplement Fully Chelated?

Yes, these Magnesium Glycinate capsules are fully chelated. Our Magnesium Glycinate Capsules have not been buffered with Magnesium oxide.

How Magnesium Glycinate Benefits Sleep

The final benefit of Magnesium Glycinate is that it can increase the likelihood of L-Glycine making it to the brain. What makes this notable is that L-Glycine may significantly enhance sleep quality (as can Magnesium itself). In othe words, Magnesium Glycinate is arguably the best Magnesium when it comes to enhancing overall sleep quality.

Magnesium Glycinate Dosage for Capsules

As a dietary supplement, take two 800mg Magnesium Glycinate capsules once daily.

    Works great - Great Cost

    I've been buying this for about a year now and it does what I need it to. I don't get enough Mag in my diet so this is a great way to supplement the rest. Just a great working product overall and for the price you can't go wrong. ND is 10/10

    Calming

    I really like this Magnesium Glycinate. It is very calming and helps me relax at night. I take 2 capsules when I feel anxiety coming on in the evening from a stressful day.

    Reliable and Cheap

    My favorite form of magnesium. No laxative effects that I can notice, fairly cheap, and works like a charm. As a lifter, I often get muscle cramps if I don't have enough magnesium and this really helps to prevent those.

    Works Great for Sleep

    I've struggled with sleep maintenance insomnia for a long time. Every night I've been using a stack of L-Tryptophan, Iron, and Magnesium Malate for a few months now. Recently, I swapped out the Magnesium Malate for Nootropic Depot's Magnesium Glycinate and it has UNDOUBTEDLY increased my sleep time by an average of 0.5 to 1 hr per night (I track sleep data using FitBit). Thank you ND for another great product!

    A staple

    I take this magnesium before bed and it has consistently helped the quality of my sleep. Don't expect it to fix problems it isn't meant to fix -- if you have an undiagnosed or untreated sleep disorder, you need to treat that first. After that, magnesium glycinate is a great bonus boost to sleep quality, and Nootropic Depot has the best quality I've come across so far.

    Great sleep supplement!

    I have been using this supplement as a part of my nightly sleep cocktail for several years now and I have never slept more sound and completely through the night than I have since I have been using magnesium glycinate. This one is a must have as a part of my nightly bedtime supplements. Everyone is different and maybe you could get by with just this one supplement to meet your needs, but for me it was a matter of trial and error and finding the right combination to complete what happens to work great for me so that I am able to get the best sleep and on a consistent basis. Consistent, healthy sleep is crucial to maintaining good overall health and well-being. Magnesium glycinate can help you get there. Thank you ND for providing quality products at reasonable prices.

    Miracle supplement for low mood

    I started taking this supplement a day or two after I got out of the hospital and the first day I noticed my mood lift a little, the second day I noticed a dramatic lift in my mood, but by the third day and on, my mood has lifted almost to euthymia. It has been a lifesaver, literally! If you have any disorders with glutamatergic signaling, I highly recommend this product! I take 2 capsules with every meal and before bedtime, so I'm taking a higher dose than the bottle says. This was how it was done in some studies that I read on Pubmed. It's a bit pricey to take it that way, but heck, if it keeps me alive, it's invaluable.

    Magnesium Glycinate

    I really like this supplement. I have been taking two capsules before bedtime and one Magnesium l theonate capsule also purchased from nootropicsdepot when I get up. I can honestly tell a big difference from the magnesium oxide I was previously taking which didn't seem to be doing anything. I will continue with this and would recommend it to anyone who wants to increase their magnesium levels and experience the benefits of magnesium supplementation.

    This product saved my life.

    This product delivers

    My husband and I take one or two capsules every evening. He is sleeping longer and better and I am not getting muscle cramps. We will always be taking this supplement.
