Magnesium bisglycinate 100 mg with taurine, 60 tablets

Chelate - the best mineral compound, with taurine

This product contains magnesium as magnesium bisglycinate. This results in a chelative bond between each magnesium particle and two molecules of the amino acid glycerol. Such a compound is commonly referred to as an amino acid chelate or amino acid chelate mineral.
Magnesium is one of the minerals most frequently used in complementary medicine. This is due to the fact that magnesium has an important function in over 300 physiological processes in the body. In addition, changes in food production and eating habits have led to many people consuming less magnesium in their diet, even though many (unprocessed) foods contain magnesium. Magnesium intake before industrialisation was estimated at 475 to 500 mg per day, whereas today it is 345 mg (average per day).

Intake of common mineral compounds

There are various magnesium compounds that are used in food supplements. Some of these, such as the inorganic mineral compounds magnesium oxide and magnesium carbonate, are not well absorbed and have low bioavailability. When minerals (in any binding form with the exception of chelated amino acids) enter the acidic environment of the stomach, the digestive process begins with the separation of the mineral component from its chemical structure. During the digestion process, the mineral is naturally electrically charged. Due to this charge, it is attracted to other charged particles such as those found in vegetables, fibre and fats. These particles isolate the mineral ions so that they can no longer be absorbed and utilised by the body as effectively. The limited amount of free mineral ions that is now available travels through the digestive tract and competes with other minerals (e.g. calcium) for absorption through the intestinal wall and into the cells.

Studies on magnesium bisglycinate**

Several studies have been conducted to confirm the efficacy of magnesium bisglycinate. Some of these studies compared the absorption of magnesium bisglycinate with various magnesium compounds such as magnesium carbonate, magnesium sulphate and magnesium oxide. Magnesium bisglycinate was absorbed significantly faster and better than the other forms of magnesium. Magnesium oxide was by far the least well absorbed.

Note from EnergyVital

This product replaces the former product "Multi Magnesium" from St. Helia. Due to its innovative magnesium compounds, it is of a much higher quality than the previous product. Unfortunately, the manufacturer has opted for a product name without "Magnesium" in the title, which is why we rarely sell it, unlike the former "Multi Magnesium". There are relatively few chemists and biologists among our customers... But the fact is that it is actually one of the best magnesium supplements in our range!
