Benefits of Thorne’s Magnesium Bisglycinate:
-
- Magnesium Bisglycinate is a great-tasting powder that can be mixed with water, juice, or with another powdered supplement.
- The compound Magnesium Bisglycinate is also called magnesium glycinate; however, because it has two glycine molecules attached, it is more accurately called “Bisglycinate” (bis = two). The Bisglycinate form has superior absorption because of increased solubility.
- Decreased laxative effect compared to other magnesium formulations because the Bisglycinate form is a true chelate that completely envelopes the magnesium.
- Glycine is a neurotransmitter that promotes relaxation and stress reduction in the body – making Magnesium Bisglycinate a good choice for pre-bedtime supplementation to support restful sleep.
