Magnesium Bisglycinate

What is Magnesium Bisglycinate?

Magnesium is a mineral that is quite essential for our body's functioning as it is involved in more than 300 biochemical reactions occurring in our body. [1].

Made with a blend of magnesium mineral and amino acid named, glycine; magnesium bisglycinate is the most bioavailable form of magnesium as a dietary supplement. In human nutrition, magnesium bisglycinate being an effective magnesium supplement, is tolerated very well. Moreover, it doesn't cause any disruptions in digestion and the toxicity is also on a very lower side or negligible. [2]

Segregating magnesium bisglycinate into its two parts individually helps with:

  • Magnesium supports one's overall health. It helps the body maintain muscle and nerve functioning, reduces constipation issues, regulates blood sugar levels, and blood pressure, and also reduces body inflammation. It is also required for the structural development of bones and helps in the synthesis of DNA, RNA, and the master antioxidant, Glutathione. [3]
  • Glycine is a simple, non-essential amino acid and it behaves like a precursor for different metabolites, including glutathione, creatine, purines, ham, etc. Glycine has its most beneficial role in the Central Nervous System where it acts as a neurotransmitter. This role of Glycine makes it control the overall homeostasis of the body, including the intake of food, behavior, etc. [4]
