Magnesium Glycinate for Sleep & Stress Relief

The mineral most people are quietly short on.

Magnesium is involved in hundreds of processes in the body, and modern diets tend to come up short. Not dramatically. Just enough that you'd never connect it to anything.

Glycinate is the form worth paying attention to. Magnesium bound to glycine is chelated, which makes it gentler on the stomach than oxide or citrate. That matters if you've tried magnesium before and quit because of what it did to your digestion.

One number to understand, because the whole category plays games with it. The bottle says 2,500mg of magnesium glycinate. That's the weight of the compound, not the mineral. The actual elemental magnesium is 275mg, or 65% of the Daily Value. Any brand advertising a four-figure magnesium number is quoting the compound and hoping you don't ask.

Most people take it at night. Glycine itself is a calming amino acid, which is part of why this form has the reputation it does.
