good magnesium
Great to add to any diet. I like the pills more but you get a lot per dollar with this product
Magnesium is usually supplied in its most basic form, magnesium oxide, due to the fact that on a per weight basis it contains a lot of elemental magnesium and is cheap to produce. However, it has very low bioavailability estimated at around 4-5%. Logically it could be said, that since magnesium oxide is so cheap, you could simply take more in order to compensate for the low bioavailability, but this is where things get tricky. Since magnesium oxide doesn’t get absorbed well in the intestines, it produces a laxative effect which is why one of its main uses is actually as a laxative. However, most supplements, especially multi-vitamins, actually use magnesium oxide simply because it is cheap and looks good on the label.
Luckily various different forms of Magnesium exist that have excellent bioavailability, one of the most common ones is Magnesium Citrate with Magnesium Bisglycinate and Magnesium L-Threonate also being very popular. However, we weren’t satisfied by those, as they still had their drawbacks. So, after a lot of research we settled on a novel form of Magnesium called Sucrosomial Magnesium which has excellent bioavailability. Sucrosomial Magnesium actually starts with Magnesium Oxide due to how much Magnesium is contains on a per weight basis. This Magnesium Oxide is then wrapped in a Phospholipid Membrane which is then enveloped by a Sucrester. The finished product is a Sucrosome Lipid Bilayer with Magnesium Oxide in the center. The Sucrosome Lipid Bilayer is very similar to cell membranes, and due to this, Sucrosomial Magnesium can very readily enter cells which is what makes it so bioavailable. In addition to its superior bioavailbility, it is also absorbed much faster than current Magnesium supplements and produces little to no Gastro Intestinal side effects that can be produced by other Magnesium supplements.
Magnesium is an important dietary mineral, which most of us don’t get enough of because common western diets lack foods high in magnesium. In fact, this is such a widespread problem, that magnesium deficiencies are now the second most common dietary deficiency in developed countries right behind Vitamin D. Magnesium controls a lot of vital biological functions, ranging from maintaining healthy blood pressure and insulin sensitivity to supporting healthy cognitive functioning.* Due to this, the benefits of Sucrosomial magnesium are somewhat endless, but to simplify things a little bit, these are the top three benefits of Sucrosomial magnesium:
Other benefits of Sucrosomial magnesium are as a potential regulator of muscle cramps, although the evidence is a little spotty for this.* This may be due to the fact that many studies on the relationship between magnesium and muscle cramps, were done with magnesium oxide, meaning that the studies were limited by the low oral bioavailability of magnesium oxide.
As a dietary supplement, take 625mg of MicroMag Optimized Magnesium 1-2 times daily.

Seems to work great feels like I get deeper sleep if taken before bed, only taking a small amount works good so I'm sure it gets absorbed much better than other magnesium supplements I've tried in the past.

Works great, no nasty flavor. I just toss and wash the dose before bed. First few nights it made me noticeably relaxed.
This is one of the only form of Magnesium that doesn't give me diarrhoea. Great delivery mechanism and thanks to Nootropics Depot for selling the only true patented sucosomial form from Alesco. Package was sent and delivered to morocco very fast (3 days)
So I've used many of the other Magnesium powders/tablets in the past, never really taking a magnesium supplement daily for any extended amount of time, it was like an on and off thing - until i tried mag l-threonate, took that everyday for 30-60 days then switched to MicroMag and noticed a huge difference the very first day. It's like this powder absorbs INSTANTLY, and you notice your magnesium levels go up right away, almost as if you only need to take this 1-3x per week, i haven't noticed any real benefit/change from daily dosing versus dosing once every could days or so. But i can def. feel a huge difference in this magnesium powder's effects, absorption, and over-all quality - it's superior for sure without a doubt. The price is a bit high, but i think ill stick with this one and just dose when needed rather than everyday. Grade A+ i do recommend this! (see my magnolia bark review!)
I would’ve have bought this a long ass time ago if I knew the “Micro” alluded to the super small suggested serving size. I love magnesium but can’t take other forms due to GI issues. Really great stuff!
My daughter and I have added Micromag to the Root Cause Protocol we started implementing in our lives recently. There is a change in motion in our body and in our mind.
This magnesium is pretty bioavailable, and it shows. Each time I took it (at night and before bed) I noticed a muscle relaxing effect; it was subtle, but consistent. It was a pleasant feeling, similar to the feeling I got when I took my first magnesium supplement years ago. A word of advice: if taking the recommended dose starts to leave your body feeling stimulated, cut the dose in half. This started happening to me about a week and a half in. Regardless, this is now part of my daily stack.
This magnesium is insoluble in water but high quality. It is as effective as Magnesium L-Threonate.
This, so far, without evaluating its long term efficacy, seems to be the best form of magnesium available. The sucrosomal encapsulation brings the taste to 10% of glycinate, which is just untenable to take straight on a daily basis taste-wise in powder form. This stuff is so easy to toss and wash, and while ALL forms of magnesium including glycinate have given GI issues beyond a certain dose, a ceiling if you will usually between 300-500 mg, this formulation I have taken up to 1100 mg in a single dose with ZERO impact on GI function. This, in my opinion, is the holy grail for those (majority of americans) who are deficient in Mg. This will allow you to raise your levels at a much more rapid pace than any other formulation, as you can take much higher doses, and I presume your cells are absorbing much more of it than other forms at the same time. A winner in my book
