Transparent Labs Magnesium Bisglycinate capsules provide 300 mg of highly bioavailable magnesium (as chelated magnesium bisglcyinate) per serving to support your dietary magnesium intake.

More health-conscious consumers, athletes, and gym-goers are taking an interest in magnesium supplementation due to recent data suggesting that magnesium is commonly lacking in the Western diet, leading to population-wide magnesium deficiency [1].

The ubiquity of magnesium in human physiology means deficiency of this mineral can lead to a range of health conditions and hinder athletic performance.

Unlike many magnesium supplements (e.g., magnesium citrate, and magnesium oxide), magnesium bisglycinate does not cause a laxative effect in large doses and is gentle on the gastrointestinal tract. This makes it ideal for ongoing use and maintaining adequate magnesium levels in the body.

Key Features

Contains Chelated Magnesium Bisglycinate for Enhanced Absorption: The efficacy of magnesium supplements hinges on the bioavailability of magnesium formulations. Sadly, many of these products contain magnesium oxide, which is poorly absorbed and can cause gastrointestinal side effects. The magnesium bisglycinate found in our formulation is gentle on the stomach and has high bioavailability, helping your body absorb and use the magnesium more effectively.
300 mg of Magnesium Per Serving and 30 Servings Per Bottle: Our magnesium bisglycinate formulation easily and effectively increases your magnesium intake with just one serving per day.
Pure, Quality Ingredients (No Fillers or Nonsense): Consistent with our core values, each batch of Transparent Labs Magnesium Bisglycinate is third-party tested for purity, potency, and authenticity.

How Much Magnesium Do I Need Per Day?	The recommended daily allowance (RDA) for magnesium varies throughout the lifespan and between sexes. Adult males typically require more magnesium than adult females (400 mg per day vs. 310 mg per day, respectively), and pregnant/lactating women generally need more magnesium, upwards of 350 mg per day, than women who aren't carrying or nursing.
What Form of Magnesium Should I Be Taking?	If you're not getting enough magnesium, we recommend the highly bioavailable and non-laxative magnesium bisglycinate form. Studies show that amino acid chelates and organic salts of magnesium, such as magnesium bisglycinate and magnesium taurate, tend to be the most bioavailable magnesium forms [11]. In other words, your body can absorb more elemental magnesium in these forms.
What Is Elemental Magnesium?	Elemental magnesium is the amount of magnesium itself in a magnesium supplement. It may or may not be the same as the dose listed next to the magnesium ingredient(s) in a supplement formula. For example, magnesium citrate — usually a 1:1 ratio of magnesium to citric acid — only provides about 11% elemental magnesium by mass.
What Does Magnesium Bisglycinate Do, Exactly?	Magnesium bisglycinate supports various physiological functions such as muscle and bone health, nervous system regulation, and cardiovascular health. It is well-regarded for its high bioavailability and calming effects, making it particularly useful in managing stress, anxiety, and sleep disorders.
What Time of Day Should I Take Magnesium Bisglycinate?	Magnesium bisglycinate can be taken at any time of day, preferably with food to enhance absorption. However, due to its calming effects, many individuals find it beneficial to take it in the evening to promote relaxation and stress reduction (which can facilitate better sleep quality).
Can You Take Magnesium Bisglycinate Every Day?	Yes, magnesium bisglycinate can be taken daily, provided it is within the recommended dosage. Regular intake is often recommended to maintain optimal magnesium levels and support overall health. Magnesium toxicity, as a whole, is rare, but individuals with kidney problems may be at a greater risk of elevated serum magnesium levels and should consult their healthcare professional before taking supplements.
Who Should Not Take Magnesium Bisglycinate?	Individuals with severe kidney disease or those who have been advised by their healthcare provider to limit magnesium dietary intake should avoid magnesium bisglycinate (and other supplements containing magnesium).

Magnesium is a macromineral electrolyte and cofactor (read: "helping hand") in over 350 enzymatic reactions in the human body. Its multifaceted roles make it essential for numerous body functions, including energy metabolism, protein synthesis, neuromuscular conduction, mood, cognition, cardiac contractility, and immunity [2].

Some researchers have gone so far as to declare magnesium deficiency, whether clinically diagnosed or not, a public health crisis and a significant risk factor for epidemic diseases like type-2 diabetes and heart disease [3]. Even subclinical magnesium deficiency in older adults is associated with an increased risk of metabolic syndrome, chronic oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction, mental health disorders, and many other debilitating conditions [4].

Magnesium is especially crucial for assisting anionic phosphate transfers throughout cells. Since adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the veritable "energetic currency" of cells, humans and many other organisms depend on magnesium to carry out vital metabolic processes. For example, magnesium is necessary for [5]:

Neurotransmitter synthesis and nerve function
Muscle contraction
Protein synthesis
Cardiovascular health (e.g. modulating blood pressure)
Immune response
Glucose metabolism and blood sugar balance
Gastrointestinal function and gut motility
Hormone balance
Restful sleep
Healthy bones
Hydration and alleviating muscle cramps

One of the most bioavailable forms of this essential mineral is magnesium bisglycinate—a chelated form of magnesium where the mineral is bonded to glycine, an amino acid. This specific form is noted for its superior absorption and minimal gastrointestinal side effects compared to other forms, such as magnesium oxide [6]. The enhanced absorbability of magnesium bisglycinate can be attributed to glycine acting as a transport molecule, facilitating magnesium passage through the intestinal wall. As a result, a greater proportion of ingested magnesium is absorbed into the bloodstream, thereby increasing overall bioavailability.

Furthermore, several clinical studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of magnesium glycinate supplements (including the bisglycinate form) in ameliorating conditions such as chronic pain, insomnia, and anxiety [7 ,8, 9].

In contrast, magnesium oxide, though widely used in dietary supplements, has several limitations.

It has a lower bioavailability, often quoted at around 4%, due to its rapid transit through the gastrointestinal tract, leading to a laxative effect and reduced systemic magnesium uptake [10].
