Highly Absorbable Magnesium for Relaxation — Without the Laxative Effect
Magnesium deficiency wears a familiar costume: tight shoulders, eye twitches, restless sleep, a nervous system that won't fully power down. The catch with supplementing it is that cheap forms (oxide, and citrate at higher doses) head for the bowels before the muscles. Glycinate solves that — magnesium bound to glycine, absorbed as an amino acid chelate, gentle enough for sensitive systems.
Who I reach for it with: muscle tension and night cramps; restless, shallow sleep; anxious physiology — the body that won't unclench; anyone who got digestive upset from other magnesium forms.
What makes it different: The glycine carrier isn't inert — it's itself a calming neurotransmitter, so the form delivers a double relaxation signal. Non-laxative at working doses, which citrate can't claim. Thorne's purity testing seals it.
Protocol fit: This is the sleep-and-tension magnesium; SFI's citrate is the choice when regularity support is also wanted. Pairs with Gabatone Active or TravaCor in calming protocols, and with Glycine itself for the sleep-depth stack.
FAQ — When should I take it? Evening, 30–60 minutes before bed, is the classic use.
FAQ — How long until sleep improves? Some feel it in days; full tissue repletion takes weeks of consistency.
Suggested Use: Take as directed by your healthcare professional.
