Magnesium Bisglycinate utilizes magnesium bound to the amino acid glycine, which facilitates intestinal absorption. Magnesium is a mineral that activates an estimated 300 enzymes, including those that regulate functions critical for energy production and metabolism, muscle contraction, nerve impulse transmission, and bone mineralization. In addition, magnesium is required for fatty acids synthesis, protein synthesis, and glucose metabolism. Magnesium status is also important for regulation of calcium balance through its effects on the parathyroid gland.

The science behind it

Magnesium is one of the essential ingredients to the healthy function of the human body, and can help with both physical and mental development. It is essential to athletes, who can easily become deficient in magnesium.

Albion® Magnesium is made using the most bioavailable and chelated ingredients, meaning the body can more readily absorb the nutrient when compared to other leading brands of magnesium supplements.

Magnesium Bisglycinate has 80% bioavailability (with little to no side-effects) against other forms like magnesium citrate that has 90% bioavailability (with possible laxative side-effects) or either magnesium oxide with only 4% bioavailability.

This product is a food supplement and should be used in conjunction with food as part of a healthy and varied diet, not as a substitute for such.
