We've prepared pure magnesium bisglycinate for you. 100% chelated form, no poorly absorbed oxides, no additives, in a vegan capsule. Magnesium bisglycinate with 12% elemental magnesium. 75 mg of magnesium per capsule.
Our magnesium comes from Germany from a high‑quality source with the trademark MagChel® from MAGNESIA, a company with more than 30 years of experience in the production and processing of minerals. MAGNESIA takes great care to thoroughly control its raw materials and all technical processes, which are improved every year to maintain the highest possible quality and purity.
Magnesium Bisglycinate is one of the most absorbable forms of magnesium due to the unique binding of magnesium to 2 glycine molecules. This chelate bond allows for faster absorption while protecting the element from the action of antinutrients that can negatively affect magnesium bioavailability.
Pure chelated magnesium is the most absorbable type of magnesium on the market. Chelate‑bound bisglycinate can only hold 10‑14% of pure magnesium. This means that the higher percentage of magnesium must be the result of the addition of other, less absorbable forms.
"Buffered" magnesium bisglycinate works with the same amount of pure magnesium, but also contains magnesium oxide. While this increases the total amount of magnesium, it also decreases its absorption.
So how do you tell a pure chelate from a buffered one?
